Leave your electronics in the car. Volusia County prohibits cell phones, tablets, iPods, cameras, and any recording devices. Keep what you carry to a minimum, too. Large bags won't be allowed inside.

Volusia County has specific dress code rules, and they apply to visitors of all ages. You cannot wear short-shorts, miniskirts, strapless tops, visible cleavage, spandex, see-through or revealing garments, or muscle or mesh T-shirts. If staff consider your outfit inappropriate, you won't get in. Choose something straightforward and covered-up.

How you behave during your visit affects whether you can visit again. Get asked to leave more than twice for any reason, and your visitation privileges are permanently revoked. If staff ask you to leave for provocative or sexual behavior, the ban is immediate and permanent.

Tips

  • Leave your phone and other electronics (tablets, iPods, cameras, recording devices) in the car or at home.
  • Bring as little as possible, and avoid large bags since they will not be permitted inside.
  • Skip anything that could be flagged by the dress code: short-shorts, miniskirts, strapless tops, spandex, see-through or revealing clothing, and muscle or mesh T-shirts.
  • Keep your behavior calm and respectful throughout the visit so you do not risk being asked to leave and losing future visitation.
