Navarre Beach Marine Park is one of the premier recreational and leisure destinations on Santa Rosa Island. It aims to promote the appreciation, conservation, and understanding of the marine ecosystem of coastal Florida through education and service. Marine Park’s shining white sands are perfect for sunbathing, swimming, and seashell-hunting. It also provides opportunities for snorkeling, diving, fishing, and marine-biology and conservation education abound.
Also known as “Florida’s Playground,” Marine Park is often the first destination for visitors of Navarre Beach. It is the connecting point between the Gulf of Mexico and Santa Rosa Sound, with activities below and above sea level. The Marine Park is open to the public free of charge, from dawn ‘til dusk daily.
