Manager's Message

Welcome to Avalon State Park’s website! Our park provides visitors with a casual beach experience within very little walking distance from the parking lot to the beach. Please enjoy our dune crossovers to protect your feet from sandspurs and to protect the fragile dune system. Showers and bathrooms are available for public use and no entry fee is presently required.

Please keep in mind that alcoholic beverages and glass containers are prohibited on the beach!

A BIG THANK YOU goes out to our volunteers who helped out on September 20th with the International Coastal Cleanup. This was a worldwide effort to clean up our coasts and waterways. It was a huge success! The volunteers collected over 200 pounds of trash within a mile and a half of beachfront!


- Steve Eibl, Park Manager

Welcome to Avalon State Park

One of the state's newest seaside parks, Avalon has more than a mile of increasingly rare undeveloped beachfront. The park provides habitat for many species of wildlife. Threatened and endangered sea turtles, like the loggerhead, Atlantic green, and leatherback, nest on the beach during the spring and summer. Dune crossovers protect the fragile dune ecosystem. We welcome swimmers, snorkelers, fishermen and sunbathers for beach recreation.

Swimmers and snorkelers are advised to be cautious of underwater obstacles left behind by amphibious warfare exercises during World War II.

Visitors can enjoy a meal at sheltered picnic tables overlooking the beach.

Located along A1A on North Hutchinson Island in St. Lucie County, four miles north of Ft. Pierce Inlet State Park.
