Pensacola Beach Scavenger Hunt: Splash and Dash Adventure

You solve clues at real beach landmarks while collecting free samples and exclusive discounts along the way.

A 2-hour scavenger hunt at Pensacola Beach where you follow app-based clues, tackle challenges at the Boardwalk, Casino Beach, the Pier and local shops, and earn free samples and discounts from participating businesses. A live English-speaking guide leads the adventure. You set your own pace or race against the clock.

The experience

The hunt starts at Pensacola Beach Boardwalk (400 Quietwater Beach Rd) and sends you to four main zones: the Quietwater Beach Boardwalk itself, Casino Beach where you'll snap a photo by the famous Pensacola Beach sign, Pensacola Beach Pier, and shops and eateries scattered across the area. At each stop, the app delivers a clue or challenge: some ask you to solve a puzzle, others to answer trivia, sing, or pose for a photo. The challenges are designed so you can tackle them at your own speed or race the clock if your group wants to compete.

Free samples and exclusive discounts from local businesses are built into the hunt, so you're not just solving puzzles. You're discovering places to eat and shop while you go. The app serves as both your guide and your scoreboard, keeping track of which challenges you've completed. A live guide in English is there to keep things moving and answer questions along the way.

The whole experience runs about 2 hours. Families with strollers, solo travelers, and groups of friends all work equally well here. The activity is suitable for all fitness levels, and all areas are wheelchair accessible. Public transportation options are nearby if you need them, and service animals are welcome.
