The Pensacola Bay Area is the ideal destination to get close to nature, learn about unique ecosystems and experience the city without your car. Come celebrate the environment in Pensacola with our 100 parks, abundant wildlife and the largest tract of protected seashore in the country.
Get close to nature at Bayou Tarkiln or Big Lagoon State Park or take a free educational tour of Gulf Islands National Seashore or Project GreenShores. Go green on the green at Lost Key Golf Club, which is an Audubon International Silver Signature Sanctuary.
Ditch your car and opt for more eco-friendly transportation. Spend the day in Downtown Pensacola exploring museums, historic sites, cafes, galleries, shops and waterfront parks on foot. Rent a bike on Pensacola Beach and explore the boardwalk or the national seashore, or enjoy nature in a kayak in Pensacola Bay or Blackwater River.
When booking your stay, consider the Pensacola Crowne Plaza, Hilton Pensacola Beach Gulf Front and TownePlace Suites by Marriott, which recently were designated as green hotels by the Florida Green Lodging Program. The designation indicates the hotels follow strict environmental guidelines to conserve natural resources and prevent pollution.
