Delaware State Park Annual Pass - One Gift for Four Seasons

For anyone on your holiday shopping list who loves the outdoors - or who hopes to get in shape or reduce stress in the New Year - an annual pass to Delaware State Parks is the best deal in town. For just $20, the recipient - along with a carful of family or friends - can have a year's worth of fun and exercise in Delaware's 14 state parks during the exciting 50th anniversary celebration of the state park system.

Annual passes may be purchased throughout the year, but they make great stocking stuffers. The windshield sticker-pass allows a vehicle and its occupants to enter most state parks, with the exception of Fort Delaware and Fenwick Island State Park's unincorporated area, without paying the daily entrance fee.

A park entrance fee is charged:

  • Daily from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend
  • Saturdays, Sundays and holidays in May, September and October

Season pass fees are:

  • $20 for Delaware registered vehicles
  • $40 for out-of-state registered vehicles
  • $20 for active military - proof of active duty status required
  • half price on the above fee for seniors

Annual passes may be purchased at any park office, pass agent, at the central office in Dover or by calling 302-739-4702. Season passes are nontransferable; a vehicle registration is not necessary. Because Delaware State Parks are 70 percent self-sustaining, entrance fees are necessary to help cover costs of operations and maintenance.
