Blue Mountain Beach

Towering a cloud-kissing (if by cloud-kissing we mean fog) 64ft-high, 'Blue Mountain' is supposedly the highest point on the pancake-flat Gulf Coast. Be on the lookout for blue lupine flowers, which supposedly gave this alpine peak it's name. Relax on the exquisite beach in the shadow of this mighty massif. (Note: 'mountain' does not actually provide a ton of shade.)
