East of Pensacola, you will find a community that has been referred to as “Florida’s best kept secret.” Its twelve miles of shoreline leaves plenty to do whether you live or vacation in the area such as jogging, kite boarding, surfing, fishing or snorkeling. Its beaches are considered some of the least crowded on the Emerald Coast. Navarre is located in Santa Rosa County and in the Northwest region of the panhandle of Florida.

History & Activities

Navarre was founded by a colonel in the United States Army, Guy Wyman, and given its name after the providence Navarre in Spain. Its military background still thrives today because of its location near the Naval Air Station to the west and to the east Hurlburt Field and Eglin Air Force Base.

Some of Navarre Beach may look familiar to you from the 1978 film Jaws 2. The Navarre Beach Holiday Inn was used to film the hotel scenes in the movie.

In the area you will enjoy the Intercostal Waterway Sound and a portion of the Pensacola Bay. On Navarre Beach you will find many restaurants and things to do, such as fishing on the pier, which is the largest on the Gulf of Mexico.

A Place To Call Home
