Park Passes & More Info.

  • The National Park Service offers annual passes, so if you plan on visiting multiple parks in a short time or even within one year, it would be a great investment! They also offer a variety of discounts for students, seniors, military and disabled persons. National Park Passes can be purchased online or at the entrance of a National Park or historic site.
  • Florida State Park Passes can be purchased online ahead of time or in-person at the entrance to a state park.
  • If you’re visiting Florida and don’t have a Sun Pass, they can be inexpensively purchased at a CVS, Walgreens, Publix and so many more. To find the closest location to you to purchase a transponder in person, please visit the Sun Pass website. Or if you would like to purchase one ahead of time so there’s no stress while traveling, one can be sent out to you within a week of purchase according to this ordering page on the Sun Pass website.
  • Pressed Penny Machine map – if the site hasn’t been updated in a while, I usually just call and confirm that they have a machine and that it’s working. After, I update that pressed penny page with the current date and that I collected however many pennies to show other collectors that it’s working.
