Free park after dark at Biscayne National Park

The Park After Dark programming at Biscayne National Park includes special programs from January to March. Bring the family out and enjoy fun nighttime activities.

The next event is on Saturday, Feb. 21, 2026 from 11:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. entitled “Seaside Stories” where you learn about Biscayne National Park's history with a park ranger, take a jetty walk, participate in a fishing clinic, take a sunset paddle (RSVP required), make s'mores and stargaze.

For each scheduled event, the Convoy Point Grounds and the Dante Fascell Visitor Center will remain open until 9pm. Additionally, there will be a campfire, s'mores, and telescopes (provided by Homestead Astronomy) at each event. All events are family friendly so picnic dinners are welcomed and bring a picnic blanket or a comfortable lawn chair. Program support provided by the South Florida National Parks Trust. For more information on any event, call the Dante Fascell Visitor Center at (786) 335-3620.
