Addison Blockhouse Historic State Park is a state park located in Volusia County, Florida. It features the Addison Blockhouse, a small coquina rock ruin that was on a 19th-century plantation and served as a kitchen as well as a fort.[1][2]

To preserve its cultural heritage, the site is not open to the public. The park is accessible by boat going across the Tomoka River.[1]
