Blue Jacket Park is named for its historic use as the home of the Orlando Naval Training Center, which trained "Blue Jacket" service personnel for more than three decades throughout the 20th century. 75 acres of the historic facility was designated as a public park in 2000, converting former naval training grounds into a lush urban oasis offering a plethora of recreational opportunities. Baseball, softball, and soccer fields are available for day use, with lighted fields offered for nighttime community and league play. Multi-use trails provide walking, jogging, and cycling opportunities amidst beautiful scenery. Two separate children's playgrounds offer safe play experiences for children ages two to 12, while grassy open spaces provide areas for picnics and free play. Other amenities include rental picnic pavilions with electricity and barbecue grills.
