This 2-Day Golf Cart Rental experience offers a unique way to explore the park’s extensive grounds with ease and comfort, making it an ideal option for campers, families, and visitors who want to maximize their time without the hassle of constant walking or carrying heavy gear.

Spanning over 1,200 acres, St. Andrews State Park features sandy beaches that meet crystal-clear waters, salt marshes teeming with coastal flora, and scenic trails that wind through native pine forests. The park is home to the famous St. Andrews State Park Marina, the Jetty Store, the Pier Store, and the popular Campground. With a golf cart, you can cruise effortlessly between these points, transporting beach gear, fishing equipment, or picnic supplies with the convenience of four passenger seating and a fold-down rear seat for extra cargo capacity.

The fully electric golf carts operate within the park’s gates, ensuring a quiet and eco-friendly ride that respects the natural environment. With pickup and drop-off times at 10 AM and 4 PM, the rental grants you freedom to plan your adventures throughout the day, from early morning fishing trips at the marina to sunset strolls by the pier. This flexibility is especially valuable for campers who rely on easier transportation to move between their campsite and park facilities.

St. Andrews State Park's mix of beach, marsh, and maritime forest habitats offers visitors diverse wildlife viewing opportunities, including shorebirds, dolphins offshore, and the occasional gopher tortoise along the trails. Historic elements of the area include its origins as Camp James E. Plew, a World War II military training base, adding cultural depth to your outdoor exploration.

Renting a golf cart is restricted to visitors aged 25 and older for booking, with operators required to be at least 21. Night operation is prohibited to ensure safety and preserve the park’s tranquility after dark. This service enhances the park experience by reducing physical strain and increasing accessibility, letting you focus more on the natural beauty and outdoor activities that made St. Andrews a Florida treasure.
