Navarre Beach is one of my favorite beaches in Florida, and also one of my favorite stops when driving through, just because I really love Dewey Destin’s in Navarre, a little seafood restaurant, right on the bay with tables in the sand. It’s a great place to stop and eat while the kids play in the water, or watch while the take out kayaks or jet skis. It’s also right next door to Best Western Navarre Waterfront, a neat little economy hotel (for waterfront in Florida).
Go across the bridge, and there are some nice little free beaches, beautiful sand and great water. We enjoyed some good waves here once, and here’s something you may not know, scenes of 1975 Jaws were filmed in Navarre!
Most recently, we stopped at Navarre on our way home from Orlando, an hour drive out of the way, just so I could eat at Dewey Destin’s, and walk in the sand. It was completely worth it! I love their fried shrimp, my favorite thing on the menu. They also had chilled Royal Reds, one of my favorite shrimp, and we were very excited about that! While I love the tables on the beach, they also have indoor seating, nice since it was raining when we visited in January, 2023.
We spent a night in 2021 at the Best Western, and check out some of my pictures from July 30th, 2020, when we rented jet skis and my son did the water bounce house. I don’t have any pictures of the beach for some reason, probably because I was just having too much fun!
