Description
Big Lagoon State Park and the Escambia Amateur Astronomer Association invite you to spend an evening gazing at the skies!
Clear skies permitting, members of the association will set up telescopes and binoculars to capture views of the moon, planets and other celestial objects. All participants must enter the park prior to closing time at sunset. The front gates will be locked at that time.
As sunset times do change throughout the year, please call the park at 850-492-1595 ahead of time to find out when the front gates will be locked for the evening.
