What we checked, and when
Read off the venue's own page on 2026-09-02.
The park charges nothing to walk in and is open sunrise to sunset seven days a week. Parking is where it costs: free for the first 30 minutes, then $1 an hour up to a $10 daily maximum for a non-resident car, $10 a day for anything towing a trailer, and $10 a boat launch. Gulf Breeze residents park free, and an annual non-resident permit is $75 for a car or $150 for a car and trailer with launch access.
⚠ Parking is not free for a non-resident past the first 30 minutes. A picnic afternoon runs to the $10 daily cap.
Little shade, so hats and sunscreen.
