About Henderson Beach State Park
A NOTE FROM THE MANAGER
Daniel Laird
We welcome you to the beautiful and serene Henderson Beach State Park where you can truly enjoy the Real Florida. Spring is in the air and the weather is just right for an outdoor adventure. So come out and enjoy a peaceful day at the park. Now is the perfect time to enjoy the natural beauty and serenity of the Emerald Coast. Whether you like to fish, hike or swim, Henderson Beach State Park has something for everyone. Take a peaceful walk on our sugar white sand, or just explore the nature trail through the dune system. Or simply bring a chair, umbrella, and a good book and enjoy a peaceful day at the beach.
Camping at Henderson Beach is second to none. Please make your reservations early online at www.reserveamerica.com or by phone at 1-800-326-3521. Reservations can be made up to eleven months in advanced. The campground stays busy so the earliest you plan your trip the better.
Interested in having an event (wedding, group picnic, etc.) at Henderson Beach? The pavilions are available to rent year round except on holiday weekends. For specifics please call Carolyn at (850)269-1062 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays for more details. Or simply call and leave a message.
