Trying to figure out the new reservation system for Henderson Beach State Park? You are not alone. The new Florida State Parks booking system has confused a lot of visitors, especially when the website redirects to the wrong pages. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide showing exactly how to reserve your Henderson Beach day-use pass online without losing your mind.
​Step 1: Open the Henderson Beach Reservation Page
Be sure to use this link: ​https://reserve.floridastateparks.org/Web/#!park/26 reserve.floridastateparks.org/Web/#!park/26

Step 2: Create a Florida State Parks Account
​ You will be required to create an account before adding to your cart.
After creating an account or logging in, you should return to the same page. 
If it does not, check out the troubleshooting section at the bottom of the page.

Step 3: Choose your pass
  • ​Click on either the east or west Day-Use Vehicle Entry.
  • Everyone entering the park currently needs a reservation, including walk-ins.
  • ​You do NOT want the "Loop", that is for camping.

 Step 4: Choose your date
  • The green squares are the available days. Pick your day and click "Book Now”
(Ignore the X  below the green boxes. It does NOT mean it is sold out. If the square is green, it is available)

Step 5: Complete Checkout
Fill in the information and click "Reserve Unit".

Step 6: Print or Screenshot your email receipt
  • You will need the bar code that was sent to you in an email to enter the park.
  • I recommend printing it out or taking a screenshot on your phone so it’s easy to access at the gate.​

Only topped by Hilton Head, South Carolina, Destin and Panama City Beach have been included on Southern Living's list of The South's Best Beach Towns.

We already know these towns are pretty awesome, though, don't we? But being included on a top 10 list is certainly nice!

And, what's between Destin and Panama City Beach? Our little beach towns along the iconic highway 30A.  This really is the ideal vacation area!
