🌿 Inspired by the Real Florida

Immerse yourself in the tranquil blues and lush greens of Florida’s wild heart with our St Marks National Wildlife Refuge Youth Short Sleeve T-Shirt. Featuring a vivid, high-quality print of an original painting of the St Marks Lighthouse and surrounding wildlife, this shirt captures the the natural beauty of Florida’s Gulf Coast - from graceful birds in flight to lounging alligators and marsh grasses swaying in the breeze — this shirt brings the serenity and wonder of the wetlands to your wardrobe.

Established in 1931, St. Marks is one of the original refuges in the National Wildlife Refuge System, which was created to protect migratory birds and other wildlife. Every fall, thousands of monarch butterflies stop at St. Marks on their migration to Mexico. The refuge is one of the best places in the Southeast to witness this spectacle. Located along the Atlantic Flyway, the refuge is a vital stop for over 300 species of birds. Birdwatchers can spot everything from bald eagles and roseate spoonbills to wood storks and red-cockaded woodpeckers. Covering over 70,000 acres, the refuge includes salt marshes, swamps, pine forests, freshwater pools, and tidal creeks. This diversity supports alligators, bobcats, otters, and countless other creatures. The St. Marks Lighthouse, built in 1831, is the second-oldest lighthouse in Florida and still stands within the refuge. It's a favorite spot for photographers and visitors. Archaeological sites within the refuge date back thousands of years. Native Americans, Spanish explorers, and early settlers all lived in or traveled through the area.

Crafted from soft, breathable cotton, this shirt is perfect for nature lovers, bird watchers, and anyone who’s been touched by the quiet majesty of St. Marks. Whether you're hitting the trails, paddling through estuaries, or just daydreaming of coastal sunsets, this tee lets you carry a piece of the refuge with you.

$1 from each product ordered will be donated to the Florida State Parks Foundation, a nonprofit organization of dedicated members and volunteers who help preserve the natural beauty and resources of the Real Florida for generations to come.
