Florala City Park

Florala City Park is an urban park in Florala that stretches along Lake Jackson and offers walking trails, playgrounds, and green spaces for recreation. It also features camping facilities with 28 developed sites and tent areas, plus a conference center and amphitheater.

The park was established in 1909 on land donated by local owners, marking its formal creation as a community space. Management responsibilities shifted several times between city and state authorities throughout its history.

The Rodney J. Evans Conference Center and Amphitheater serve as gathering places where the community hosts concerts, festivals, and performances throughout the year. These venues bring neighbors together and shape how people experience the park's social life.

The park features a fishing pier and boat launches for water activities along the lake, making it easy to access aquatic recreation. It spans the Alabama-Florida state line, so visitors crossing the pier may move between states.

Lake Jackson sits on the Alabama-Florida border, making this park a place where visitors can stand in two states at the same time. This geographical quirk creates an unusual experience that most visitors find memorable.
