Since 1986, the Perdido Key Association (PKA) has been an information resource and public voice for Perdido Key owners and residents. The organization keeps members up-to-date about land-use developments, transportation issues, beach access and erosion concerns as well as other issues important to the future of our beautiful island. PKA Directors attend and testify at Escambia County Board of County Commissioner, Florida-Alabama Transportation Planning Organization and Development Review Committee meetings as appropriate to help preserve and enhance the distinctive character of the Key. PKA also cosponsors or participates in Perdido Key community events such as World Oceans Day in June and International Coastal Cleanup Day in September.

What will Perdido Key be like in 10 years? We don’t know but believe that without the continued attention by concerned property owners and residents developments could go in unfavorable directions. The 2025 Perdido Key Property Owner Survey sponsored by PKA showed that many owners greatly appreciated the island’s beaches and parks, casual lifestyle and natural environment. They expressed a consistent desire to preserve Perdido Key’s character while addressing the challenges of growth, access, and long-term resilience.
