The Tomoka Landfill and the West Volusia Transfer Station will also remain open during the holiday. The landfill will operate from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and the transfer station will be open from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Beach Access and Parking Information
To help beachgoers make the most of the holiday weekend, the Volusia Beaches app offers real-time information on weather and tide conditions, open beach access points, staffed lifeguard towers, restroom locations, and beach safety regulations. The app is free to download and available for both Apple and Android devices.
Volusia County residents are encouraged to register their vehicles through the ParkVolusia program to receive complimentary beach driving access and parking in County-owned and maintained off-beach lots. Non-residents must pay for access; daily passes can be purchased onsite, while annual passes must be purchased online. To register or purchase an annual pass, visit www.parkvolusia.org.
