Location: 1550 Miracle Strip Parkway, Fort Walton Beach, Florida

John Beasley Park offers access to our beautiful white sandy beaches and emerald waters that our area has become known for. The park offers 2 pavilions, swimming, fishing, boardwalk access to the beach and restrooms. It also offers guests 200 parking spaces and 8 handicap parking spaces. During peak season the parking lot will fill up at various times so we recommend carpooling when able. 

The West Pavilion is available for reservations in two-hour increments on a first-come, first-serve basis for a fee. Please contact the Facility & Parks Maintenance office for more information @ 850.689.5790.
