We welcome you to the beautiful and serene Henderson Beach State Park where you can truly enjoy the Real Florida. 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.
