Destinations - Navarre Beach

Among Florida’s treasured barrier islands, Navarre Beach is a natural retreat. It is situated on Santa Rosa Island, surrounded by protected natural coastline.

The area’s pristine beaches are named among the best in the nation year after year, and visitors compare crossing Navarre Bridge to transcending paradise time and time again. Here the waters are emerald clear, and the sand is so clean and powdery white it literally squeaks under your toes.

Navarre Beach is one of those rare places that quickly feels like "your" beach. It is a small family-friendly beach community with a total of two restaurants and waterfront bars where locals and visitors alike meet to toast the sunset, play a round of beach volleyball, or reflect on the day while watching the sparkling water.

The warm Gulf waters also attract a plethora of fish, making the region famous for the beloved pastime of fishing.

The Gulf Islands National Seashore between Navarre Beach and Pensacola Beach offers nature lovers eight miles of federally protected, undeveloped shoreline – the longest continuous stretch of protected beach in Northwest Florida.
