"America The Beautiful - National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass"

Interagency Federal Recreation Passes are available at federal recreation sites that charge entrance fees and standard amenity fees, through government internet sites, and through select third-party vendors.  

The new pass covers recreation opportunities on public lands managed by four Department of Interior Agencies - the National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land Management, and the Bureau of Reclamation, and by the Department of Agriculture's U.S. Forest Service.  The passes are valid at those locations which currently have entrance or standard amenity fees.

All Interagency Recreation Passes may be obtained at Canaveral National Seashore's entrance stations. For either the Senior Pass or Access Pass, you will need to present a valid picture ID, proof of eligibility, and proof of U.S. Citizenship. The Visitor Use Assistant on duty can answer questions you may have regarding available park passes and eligibility requirements.

Golden Access and Golden Age passports will continue to be honored according to the provisions of the pass at the time it was issued.  If you have one of the paper Golden Age or Access passes, you may exchange it for a new plastic-coated pass for free. Proper ID and proof of US citizenship will be required.
