Things to do

Places to visit near Pensacola Beach vacation rentals

Though the Pensacola Beach Pier is a notable fishing post, at 1,470 feet long, it's also one of the longest piers on the Gulf of Mexico. The nearby Pensacola Naval Aviation Museum, just a short drive onto the mainland, might attract any history buffs in your crew, as will Fort Pickens. This ruined pre-Civil War fortress was in use through WWII, and is located in the Gulf Islands National Seashore. Book a Pensacola Beach vacation rental right on the coast to fully experience the area's top attraction: the crystal clear waters of the Gulf.
