PARKING
Metered parking as well as city and private parking lots are located near the museum. The lot closest to the museum is at the Margaritaville KW Resort & Marina (formerly the Westin Resort), on Front Street. Rates are independently established and are not under the museum’s control.
​
The museum offers a bicycle rack in our courtyard. Please lock your bike with a secure chain. Bicycles must be removed from the rack by 5:30 p.m. to avoid being locked in when our gates close. Scooters are treated as motorcycles under Florida law. The parking of scooters on sidewalks or in No Parking zones can result in parking violations or towing.
