About time. They should have used shells.

Thats great news!

It would be nice if they put a boat ramp there..but that will probably never happen.

I wouldn't think that people would drive all the way over to the beach, and pay extra axle tolls at the tool booth, to use a boat ramp. If its on the Park its self, there would probably be more extra tolls, llike Big Lagoon. Gulf Breeze shoreline park ramp is right across the sound..... Of course in the old days there was a ramp behind the 76 gas station which is now the Marina...

That ramp was horrible though.

Its 8 miles to the pass from Shoreline. you could probably save the toll amount in gas , not to mention wear and tear of the extra 16 mile round trip.
