Summer visitors to Walton County will once again be able to enjoy complimentary day-use admission to Grayton Beach State Park and Topsail Hill Preserve State Park from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day.
The Walton County Tourism Department is covering the cost of entry for day-use visitors to increase available parking for beachgoers during the peak visitation season, as well as raise awareness of the variety of eco-tourism activities South Walton offers. This year marks the tenth year of admission coverage for Topsail Hill Preserve State Park and the eighth for Grayton Beach State Park.
“Our state parks are truly magical, and we encourage our visitors and residents to explore all that they have to offer,” says Matt Algarin, tourism director for Walton County. “This program offers an opportunity to experience a different side of Walton County.”
Complimentary day-use admission is available during normal operating hours, generally 8 a.m. to sunset, and this year’s program will begin on Memorial Day weekend, starting Friday May 24, 2024 and run through Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 2, 2024
