Just a bar with a gas light. Thought it was neat to see. The area has similar architecture that looks like New Orleans.

Downtown walk around plenty of restaurants and pubs.

Battery Payne was built in 1904 and was the western-most battery defending Fort Pickens. It had 3-inch rapid-fire guns and an igloo magazine built for storage, and it has stairs that lead to a tunnel and underground storage area. Today the guns are gone, but the battery and foundation can be explored and walked around.

Fort Pickens was built to defend Pensacola Bay and the Pensacola Navy Yard and Depot from attacks. The fort could hold 1,000 soldiers during an attack and was equipped with cannons. To visit the areas of the Gulf Islands National Seashore where Fort Pickens is, there is an entry fee as it is a national park.

Big Lagoon State Park is situated next to Big Lagoon (go figure), which separates the mainland of Florida from the Gulf of Mexico. The park plays host to a load of recreational activities and amenities, one of which is a small trail system and pretty epic boardwalk. Just outside of Pensacola, this is a popular spot for tourists and locals, alike.

The northern terminus of the 1,100-mile Florida National Scenic Trail is located just next to Fort Pickens. There is a small monument indicating the terminus. If you ride southbound, expect a very long stretch of road walking with few to no shade along the Gulf Islands National Seashore before you enter the woods of the panhandle section.
