The Refuge is comprised of two islands and two mainland tracts totaling
approximately 12,492 acres. Popular recreational opportunities include
fishing, hunting, wildlife viewing, hiking, bicycling, kayaking, and nature
photography. Surrounded by Outstanding Florida Waters, the Refuge is an
important stop-over point along the Gulf coast for neotropical migratory birds
and a haven for threatened and endangered species. In addition, St. Vincent
NWR serves as a breeding site for endangered red wolves.

The Apalachicola Bay Reserve protects one of the most productive estuarine
systems in the Northern Hemisphere, where the economic value of the natural
resources and pristine conditions depend on the region's biological diversity.
The 246,000-acre reserve on the Florida panhandle is about 75 miles southeast
of Tallahassee and 60 miles east of Panama City. Included within the Reserve's
management area are two barrier islands and a portion of a third, the lower 52
miles of the Apalachicola River and its floodplain, portions of adjoining
uplands, and the Apalachicola Bay estuarine, riverine and floodplain systems .
Apalachicola Bay is a major forage area for trans-gulf migratory bird species
and supports a local fishing industry worth $14-16 million annually which
directly supports up to 85 percent of the local population.
