James Lee Park & Henderson Beach State Park

James Lee Park is located within walking distance of the Best Of Destin Condo. Both James Lee Park and Henderson Beach State Park have one of Florida's most prized assets, pristine white, sugar sand beaches and more than 6,000 feet of scenic shoreline bordering the emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico.
Located just east of Destin, the park’s entrance lies on the Emerald Coast Parkway (U.S. 98) across the street from a shopping center and a Super Wal-Mart.
One of the most beautiful sights while visiting the park is a breathtaking view of a Dolphin family (porpoise) as they emerge from the waters for a breath of air, or a group of Rays as they soar across the shallow waters along the coastline.

Activities that visitors can enjoy while visiting Henderson Beach State Park include swimming, surf fishing, picnicking, camping, bicycle riding, nature trials, family reunions & weddings, as well as a leisurely walk in the sugar white sand or in the splash of the emerald green water.

Visitors to coastal parks are reminded to pay close attention to the colored flags posted at welcome stations and on the beaches. These flags indicate the wave and swimming conditions at the beach. Red means no swimming because of high winds or undertow currents, yellow means swim with caution and stay close to shore, blue means that the waters are safe.
