Florida State Parks Closed due to COVID-19

Tallahassee, Florida – At the direction of Governor DeSantis and to successfully uphold CDC guidance to maximize social distancing and avoid gatherings larger than 10 people, Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) will close all Florida State Parks to the public effective Monday, March 23rd, 2020

DEP has taken many measures to continue providing resource recreation at our state parks during this time, such as limiting operating hours and reducing visitor capacity at parks with high visitation. Unfortunately, this has not resulted in the reductions needed to best protect public health and safety as Florida continues to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. 

DEP appreciate your cooperation and understanding as they work to prioritize the welfare of our communities and staff. DEP looks forward to welcoming you again to the DEP’s award winning state parks as soon as possible.
