10 Things to do in Navarre That You Shouldn't Miss

August 9, 2021 Etsuko Causey

Navarre is a Census-designated place and unincorporated community in Santa Rosa County in the northwest Florida Panhandle. It is a bedroom community for mostly U.S. Military personnel, Federal Civil Servants, local population, retirees and defense contractors. Due to its proximity to Navarre Beach and its four miles of beach front on the Gulf of Mexico as well as the Gulf Islands National Seashore, it has a small, but growing community of nature enthusiasts and tourists.

Navarre Beach

Tucked away in a corner of Northwest Florida, far from crowded theme parks and packed beaches, you will find a piece of the old Florida offering solitude and simplicity for sun seekers, families, outdoor adventurers, nature lovers and water sports enthusiasts.

It’s horrible how great it is for just relaxing. If more people come here there will be more traffic for me as a Floridian. Beach is great. Calm on some days and not so calm on others. Just check the webcam. I agree go to Pensacola or destin so we can enjoy how pristine the beach experience is. The sound side is great as well.

This is an absolutely lovely local store that carriers local artist and a large variety of specialty items. We stopped for a look around after driving by for a long time. I am glad we did. The staff was so kind and had time for a chat. We purchased a few items and could have bought more but restrained ourselves. Now we have a reason to go back. The inventory changes, as do the artist. Stop here and enjoy this wonderful little shop with a heart.

Fly The Boat

Reviewed By Dixie_Canuck_Muskoka

My son and I recently had the incredible opportunity to throughly enjoy flights over Navarre Beach. If we could we would rate this experience above five stars. The morning weather was perfect and our host/pilot (Jeff) was outstandingly accommodating and experienced with a keen sense of humor. Experiencing Navarre Beach from this low-altitude perspective was one of the highlights of our vacation. We observed dolphins, sharks, tarpon and a manta ray (not to mention the beach wildlife). We also were able to give the family a good wave on our flight. If you’re a pilot you’ll especially appreciate this flying experience. In my younger days I was both a licensed glider pilot and private pilot. This hands-on/tactile, wind-in-face flying will reinvigorate your love of all things aviation. If you’re a pilot be prepared for some counter-intuitive control movements. Throughout the flights Jeff was the consummate host explaining the aircraft, maneuvers, Navarre area features and wildlife. If you’re in Navarre (and especially if your a pilot) then you owe it to yourself and the family to enjoy this unique flying boat experience. Enjoy!!

We rented scooters for the day and went all the way past pensacola beach to fort pickens and had a blast! They are the cutest scooters I have ever rented with locked storage as well! We reserved them the day before through text with the owner which was so easy and convenient. When we got there they greeted us right away. So nice! And we had the paperwork done in no time and were off to enjoy our day! I wish all rental places were like this! Thank you again!
