This is our favorite beach spot. They have public restrooms & showers, a lifeguard (in season) and the most beautiful white sandy beaches! If you enjoy running, walking or biking...I highly recommend parking in the main lot and going all the way down Johnson's Beach Road. It's just over 4 miles if you go to the end and back.

It's a little drive to get over to this Seafood market closer to downtown but it will not disappoint! It's an experience in itself to see all of the different types of seafood and how many people they serve so quickly. Tip: they will steam fresh shrimp or crab legs for you to take home and they are amazing! You can also get fresh breads, specialty items and a scoop of gelato!

The Naval Air Station (NAS) Pensacola, where the lighthouse is located. It is currently open to the public for a fee. DON’T MISS IT! It is the tallest lighthouse on the Gulf Coast. You can climb all the way up to the top where the views are stunning.

We are proud to live near the Blue Angels, based out of Pensacola NAS just a few miles down the road. Be sure to look up the Blue Angels practice schedule while you are here. They typically practice during the week and you can watch them practice for their next air show! The base is currently open to civilians to watch them practice. Many people go to the beach to watch them as you can see them if you go to the end of Johnson’s Beach. Heck, people even sit in the Walmart or Target parking lot to see them.
Note...on Sunday evening's they usually fly back from their air show and they “buzz” the beach. Keep your ears open and look up... you can see them from the back yard flying back to the base since we are in the flight path. It's a sight to see.

If you've never taken vehicle ferry, here is your chance! It's a drive to get over to Ft Morgan to the ferry, but it is very scenic, and fun. The ferry takes you & your vehicle over to Mobile, AL. You can either visit Mobile and take the drive back from there or take the return ferry back to Fort Morgan. Check on line for schedule & pricing. Also good to make sure they are running since the weather does effect their schedule sometimes.
