Shorebirds are nesting on Pensacola Beach:
Obey all posted shorebird/seabird signs and stay out of roped off areas.

Use designated walkways when available so you don’t disturb the birds and their families.

Keep your distance from nesting birds.

Leave Only Your Footprints Behind.

SUNDAY MAY 5, 2024, Happy Cinco De Mayo! Here is this week's weekly planner:
We will most likely have a Beach Buzz tonight! Look for the 12pm post today about that, it will be updated in realtime.
The team will be returning from Vero Beach, Florida this evening. These are not guaranteed, and locations are never known! Your best bet to catch one of these buzzes is the Casino Beach area near the beach ball water tower at Pensacola Beach. We are expecting this tonight between 5:15pm and 6:00pm.
Now Folks, If you don't read and understand anything else today, please read and understand this next part: THE NATIONAL NAVAL AVIATION MUSEUM WILL BE CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC MAY 7, 8, AND 9. Because of this, the West Gate will also be closed to civilian visitors those days as well! Do NOT try to enter the base without a military ID, you'll be turned-away. Speaking of military ID's... that does not help you watch the practices from base this week either! Base security is cracking down on watching or photographing the Blues from ANYWHERE ON BASE besides the museum! Ask me how I know. :D
There are scheduled practices this week on Tuesday and Wednesday!
Please review the "practice information" photo album for watch locations BESIDES the closed museum. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.112650624816635&type=3
Attached is a map with the 4 best land-based places to watch as recommended by other Blue Angels Fans. This map shows exactly where their FAA Airspace closure is. You cannot see a practice from Pensacola Beach or further east. You also cannot see it from Perdido Key (very distant view), Orange Beach or further places west. Review the map. Also, new this year is a listing of many area charter boat companies that offer various charters and boat rental options to view these practices by water!
Tune-in here the day of each practice. We make a status post at 7:30am central time that we update in real-time when there are delays, cancellations, and when they take-off and land.

☀️PIER REOPENS TOMORROW☀️

“🙌 Good news! We're excited to share that the Casino Beach Fishing Pier will reopen to the public tomorrow, April 26, at noon. The pier will be open seven days a week from sunrise to sunset.

🚧 Work to the pier began in December 2023 and included replacing pier signage, lighting, water lines, and the entrance gate, and repairs to timber railing and blow-out deck panels. New additions to the pier include benches, trash cans and ADA fishing rails placed throughout the pier.

⚠ Minor work will still need to be completed once the pier is open, including installing lighting and repairs to blow-out deck panels. Thank you for your patience while we continue these improvements.

☀ We hope you have a great time on the pier! Head over to MyEscambia.com/pensacola-beach for more information about visiting Pensacola Beach.”

WEEKLY PLANNER TEMPLATE

SUNDAY APRIL 21, 2024, Here is this week's weekly planner:
We will most likely have a Beach Buzz tonight! Look for the 12pm post today about that, it will be updated in realtime. Looking at showtimes, we're predicting tonight's buzz to be between 4:45pm-5:15pm.
The team will be returning from Orlando, Florida this evening. These are not guaranteed, and locations are never known! Your best bet to catch one of these buzzes is the Casino Beach area near the beach ball water tower at Pensacola Beach.
There are scheduled practices this week on Tuesday and Wednesday! There will be an autograph session on Wednesday at approximately 12pm.
Linked below is the latest schedule and watch-locations. Watching the practice sessions from on-base behind the National Naval Aviation Museum is the best front stage view. Please make sure to review the attached graphic about accessing the base through the West Gate as well as having a state-issued photo ID for anyone vehicle occupants that are 18 and over. Note: The base relaxed their real ID requirement.
**NEW: Check out the food truck options for lunch ideas while at the museum!
