"Hey Water Sweepers! Welcome to one of my absolute favorite places on Florida's Space Coast — Black Point Wildlife Drive! It's a 7-mile, one-way route through the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge right near Titusville. You drive or bike along raised dike roads surrounded by shallow marsh impoundments teeming with incredible wildlife. Let's explore it together!"
Welcome to Black Point Wildlife Drive
Black Point Wildlife Drive is located within the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge (MINWR) near Titusville, Florida. The 7-mile gravel dike road winds around shallow marsh impoundments that were originally built for mosquito control but now provide critical habitat for hundreds of species. The refuge lies along the Atlantic Flyway — one of North America's major migratory bird corridors — making it a world-class birding destination. A U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Refuge Pass is required to enter.
