Beach Baptism Parking & Shuttle

Offsite Parking and Shuttle

With two additional campuses this year (Welcome North Jax and Ponte Vedra!), only those who are getting baptized will be allowed to park at Hanna Park this year! Everyone else is invited to park offsite and utilize the free shuttle service to and from Hanna Park.

Offsite Parking Location:
FSCJ (South Campus)
11901 Beach Blvd, Jacksonville, FL 32246

Shuttle Service Times:
Shuttles will run continuously from 10am-5pm.

Our large, air-conditioned coach busses are wheelchair accessible and have plenty of room for your family and all of their beach gear. Grab a free lunch provided by Sausage Dudes before boarding the bus and our shuttle service will bring you and your family right to the boardwalk entrance to the beach. Once you arrive, Beach Bellhops will be waiting at the boardwalk to help you bring your gear onto the beach.

Arriving at the Beach

Many people begin arriving shortly after shuttle service begins at 10am and spend the morning at the beach until baptisms begin. While we will be providing free water and additional restrooms at the beach, there will not be any food available for purchase. Please make sure to grab a free lunch at the Offsite Lot and pack any additional snacks you may need.

Baptisms are tentatively scheduled to begin between 2:00-2:30, BUT weather may require us to start earlier or later than initially planned. It’s best just arrive as early as possible and be ready for baptisms whenever they start.

If you are traveling with elderly family members or young children, we have Beach Bellhops waiting at the boardwalk entrance to assist you with getting everyone and everything on to the beach. We also have specialized wheelchairs designed for use on sand for anyone who might need them. You can set up towels or a tent on the beach, but we ask that you not set up camp in the space between the Eleven22 tents and the campus flags.

Returning To Your Car

You can take ANY coach bus back to FSCJ from the same lot that you were dropped off at.
