Pensacola Beach

Pensacola Beach is easy to access but a few logistics are helpful to know. There is a $1 electronic toll to enter the island, and only one main road on and off, so traffic can build up in the late morning and afternoon. Most of the beach is public—Casino Beach is the main area with lifeguards, restrooms, and nearby food, while driving a little farther east or west will lead to quieter, less crowded spots.

The best little beach restaurant right across from the water! Farther away from the main section of the beach. Perfect if you want to yummy lunch before or after a quieter beach time experience.
