Information and resources on the parks and recreational areas at the Jacksonville Beaches including Jacksonville Beach, Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach, Mayport and Ponte Vedra. These include information on the parks maintained by the City of Jacksonville as well as St Johns County. We have gathered a listing of the parks in Duval County from the City of Jacksonville Parks and Recreation website. The listings are by zip code and then alphabetically. They are all in acrobat reader format and available for download, viewing and printing. Each park has the name, address or location, amenities and most have histories as well. The St Johns County Park webpage just has a listing of the parks in the Northeast area of the county along with a map. Once we have visited each of the parks in the 32081 and 32082 zip code areas we will include them in an acrobat reader file as well.
The zip codes of 32227 and 32228 are both located on NAS Mayport and there is no public access to parks within these areas. If you live on base and would like to post information on the parks available for Naval families feel free to subscribe to the blog and include the information in the comment section below.
We are in the process of gathering pictures of the parks and will have them available in a slideshow at the bottom of the page once we have.
