These are a few of my favorite things.

1. The Weather- An average temperature of 75 degrees and close to 340 days of sunshine per year!
2. The Sand- Our famous beaches are so beautifully white for a reason! The sand has not been bleached b the sun as was long believed. Instead, it is comprised of Appalachian quartz that fliters down the coast from the mountains
3. Our Men & Women in Uniform- Local military bases- Eglin Air Force Base, Hurlburt Field and Duke Field support more than 60,000 active military, civil service and military dependents. I salute you!
4. Southern Disposition- This is the place where the 'sunshine state' wears its sunny disposition most proudly. We're happy to welcome visitors from all over the country yet we're practically a suburb of Birmingham, Atlanta, Mobile and New Orleans.
5. Playing Golf- With many fine local courses we've created a few 'golf widows' here in Navarre.
6. Boating- Grab a cooler, rent a boat and soak up the sun!
7. Free Wireless Internet- There are several hot spots in Navarre to connect to the internet.
8. The Snowbird Migration- Escaping the snowy winters of far northern climates, these annual visitors flock to Navarre for the same reason we like to live here full time.
9. Beaches to Rivers- We're known as The "Canoe Capitol of Florida" due to our extraordinary variety of inland rivers for visitors seeking adventure aboard a canoe, kayak or inner tubes.
10. Weddings on the Beach- Hardly a day goes by that you can't find some happy couple taking advantage of the natural beauty of the Emerald Coast to say "I Do." Just think how great the photos will look!
11. Catching The Sunrise Over the Bridge- Going over the Navarre bridge at sunrise and sunset is a special treat. As one person said it: "The world is waking up, and the colors are absolutely beauitful."
12. Jogging Along Gulf Blvd- Take this path any morning and be prepared to meet other runners, dog walkers and people watchers!
13. Navarre Beach Arts- Check out the annual art festival. Art, music and great food!
14. The Navarre Garden Club- An entire year of our garden club activities, events and information!
15. Shopping- Just a quick drive to Destin Commons, Silver Sands Outlet Mall, Santa Rosa Mall, Cordova Mall and the University Mall.
16. The Navarre Library- Browse through books, DVDs, music and audio tapes! FREE!
17. Panhandle Butterfly House- Located in Navarre Park, this house is Inhabited by Florida butterflies! Admission is free, donation are accepted to support the purchase of butterflies and gardens
18. The ZOO- a 50-acre preserve with more than 700 animals surrounded by botanical gardens.. Visitors can ride the Safari Line Train, feed and pet tame animals and browse in the Lion’s Lair gift shop.
19. Motorcycles- You will find hundreds of motorcyles gathering on Navarre Beach during the summer months!
20. Beaches to Woodlands Tour- October is a great time to visit Santa Rosa: mild temperatures, discounted fall rates, beautiful sunsets, and countless festivals, events, and shows! You're invited to explore local hot spots, enjoy natural treasures, and celebrate Santa Rosa Style with the locals during this time.
