Anastasia Island is a barrier island situated between the Matanzas River and the Atlantic Ocean. Crescent Beach received its name due to the shoreline’s natural shape. Lifeguards are seasonal. Onsite amenities include restrooms, dune crossovers, cover picnic areas and showers. Pavilion availability is based on a first-arrived/first served policy. Over 70% of sea turtle nesting occurs on Florida’s beaches, and such seasonal occurrences may affect access/use to areas.

Keep your distance from other people.
Practicing social distancing is still essential. Only go to the beach if you are able to keep 6 feet or 2 meters away from others. Follow the instructions provided by your local health authorities. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter our efforts to curb the virus’s spread.
