Big changes are planned for Galvez Landing, located at Innerarity Point in Pensacola. The project, which had been paused for several years, has suddenly resurfaced with a short deadline of June 27, 2025, set for public input. Many of us have questions and concerns about how these proposed changes will affect the residents of Innerarity Point.

Galvez Landing is not a remote boat launch — it sits in the very heart of our community. Innerarity Point is a small, water-surrounded peninsula, and Galvez Landing is the only public water access available to local residents and visitors. That makes it not just a convenience, but a vital part of daily life and a central piece of our neighborhood identity.

Galvez Landing is woven into the cultural fabric of our community. It’s where generations have gathered to launch boats, fish, picnic under the oaks, and enjoy a small beach that feels like our own. It’s a cherished place to watch the sun set over the Intracoastal Waterway — a peaceful, beautiful tradition that connects neighbors and families alike. Many of us bought homes here because of the proximity to Galvez Landing and the lifestyle it supports.

For years, this oak-shaded park has drawn our community together — a place to catch the cooling breeze, enjoy the view, and embrace the slower pace of life that makes Innerarity Point so special. Our neighborhood is defined by an Old Florida charm: a nature-loving, walking-friendly community with sidewalks, and now low-impact golf cart transportation. Galvez is the heart of everything — the one destination that brings everyone together.

We understand that change is coming, and we’re not opposed to progress. However, as residents and taxpayers, we strongly feel we should be included in the process. A public town hall meeting would give us the opportunity to ask questions, share ideas, and voice our concerns before any project is finalized.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
The Residents and Friends of Innerarity Point and Galvez Landing
