    Bulow State Park is a former plantation and state park in the First Coast region of Florida.

    Understand

    [edit]

    Bulow State Park consists of two state parks rolled into one. The most significant one is Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park, while the southern extension of the park, Bulow Creek State Park which follows several miles of the shoreline of the Intracoastal Waterway, is in neighboring Volusia County. To the south of Bulow Creek State Park is Tomoka State Park and the city of Ormond Beach. To the northwest of Bulow Plantation is the city of Palm Coast, the main city in Flagler County, the southernmost county within the First Coast.

    Climate

    [edit]

    The regional climate is hot and humid and summer, and cooler in winter. The park, straddling the boundary of Volusia and Flagler Counties, is on the border of the semitropical region of Central Florida to the south and the somewhat temperate region of North Florida. As a result, cold snaps during winter are interspersed with subtropical, humid heat waves.

    Get in

    [edit]

    The U.S. interstate I-95 bypasses Bulow to its west, but there is an interchange for the Old Dixie Hwy which crosses the interstate to its west and its east. The eastern, or southern, side of the Old Dixie Hwy connects to Bulow Creek while Old Kings Rd to the north connects Old Dixie Hwy to the site of Bulow Plantation.
