PERDIDO KEY BEACH DAY
Time to hit the beach! Perdido Key offers something for everyone when it comes to beach access. Free beach access is available at four conveniently located public beach access points throughout Perdido Key. Paid beach access is available at Perdido Key State Park and the Gulf Islands National Seashore. These state and federal parks offer unique amenities and experiences, with varying entrance fees. No matter which beach area you choose, you’re guaranteed a great day in the sugar-white sand and sparkling Gulf waters of beautiful Perdido Key.
LEAVE NO TRACE
Do your part to help protect our beautiful beaches and the wildlife that call them home, especially endangered sea turtles and nesting shore birds. Here's how you can do your part:
- No pets are allowed on Perdido Key Beaches.
- Fill in holes and flatten sandcastles before leaving the beach. These can block nesting sea turtles and trap hatchlings trying to reach the Gulf.
- Give sea turtles, hatchlings, and shore birds plenty of space. Never touch or disturb them.
- Dispose of trash and fishing gear properly. Wildlife can become entangled or ingest harmful materials like plastic bags or fishing line.
- Take your belongings with you. Items left overnight will be removed and disposed of by cleaning crews. Under Escambia County’s Leave No Trace ordinance (adopted August 2015), personal property must be removed daily from the sandy Gulf beach between sunset and sunrise.
