A great place to come visit! They have a $15 per vehicle, 1 week pass. And there is a 1 year pass for only $30, it's such a great deal if you ever plan on coming back, and there is so much to see you could never see it all in one visit.
It was educational. The kids had fun exploring the fort. We got lucky and got to watch the blue Angels give a good show.
There is the old late 1800's brick-and-mortar fort, and then there are multiple ww2 era gun batteries all around the area that offer two different ages to travel back through time to see how it was back then! Great swimming and BEAUTIFUL beaches!!!!!!! The best in all of Pensacola!
The old forts here are fun to explore, and you can practically have a private beach if you pick your spot right. Just be careful towards the tip of the island. The currents can be strong there and there are plenty of sharks.
Good tour guide and very interesting place. Museum annex isn't much (mostly wildlife stuff more suitable for kids), though the video is good if you miss the tour or want a little more. Paying $15 to drive in is pretty steep if you're only using it once, so maybe plan around that. The pass is good for a week and covers all the beaches and more as well as the fort, but they don't sell day passes.
We love this Park, it has excellent campgrounds, clean bathrooms and showers, friendly staff. Beautiful white beaches, both on the gulf and the bay side. The fort is incredible. Nice little gift shop for souvenirs. Great place for hunting for shells. We stay here weeks a time multiple times a year. Definitely recommend a visit here, you won't be disappointed.
