Tucked away on Okaloosa Island across the water from Fort Walton Beach, Ross Marler Park is known for its natural beauty, the variety of activities there are to enjoy here, and for having a peaceful, picturesque ambiance.
Ross Marler Park is located on Okaloosa Island along Choctawhatchee Bay at 1275 Santa Rosa Blvd., Okaloosa Island, FL 32548. Easily accessible by car or by tram, Ross Marler Park is well worth checking out during your time in Fort Walton Beach.
Here, you and your guests can partake in swimming, fishing, and boating within the bay. Stroll along the fishing pier and catch yourself some dinner before grilling it up and enjoying it at one of the picnic pavilions, situated within a convenient distance of the water’s edge and the free public parking lot. Walk along the beach and you’ll encounter a variety of shells. Launch your boat (rented or owned) from one of two boat ramps onsite.
