When designing Palm Coast in 1969, ITT development group put in a unique 23 mile navigable Saltwater Canal system with access to the Intracoastal Waterway. The saltwater canal neighborhoods are divided up into sections and most of the street names begin with the letter "C". Most of the saltwater canals are 80' wide and can accommodate large boats. The Saltwater Canals are all within the City limits of Palm Coast and do not have HOA fees or boat dock fees. You can just pull your boat up behind your home at your own private dock.
