For Wakalla Beach, Saint Marks or Spring Creek would be closer. I'm really not up on just what is availiable in those two areas, but I do know that they both have somewhat decent places to stay :D

I kayaked Wakulla Beach Friday & it was slow. I was real happy with the 22" trout on topwater. I used a CT as well & got no hits. Fish early because the wind will come, no matter what they say. I'd really recommend bringing a cast net and using bait around the outer bars. The south-most one west has a clump of cord grass on it & good bottom all around it. That's where I got the one fish. Patty's Island was nothing.
Oh yeah, the motels. The lodge at Wakulla Springs is close. I think its 50-60 bucks. The hotel at Poseys in Panacea is cheap enough. Camping is close at Newport. Walk to the bar & oysters & music.
Let us know how you do.
