How does Navarre Beach compare to Orange Beach?
Posted by Stingy


We usually vacation in Orange Beach because of the small crowds and family atmosphere. It's also a convenient location.
Navarre Beach looks to not be as convenient to restaurants and shopping but is it family friendly? Less of a party crowd than PCB or Destin?
Any other info. about Navarre Beach is appreciated.

Quieter, less trashy.
AKA perfect for families.
ETA: easy drive to Gulfarium Marine Park in Fort Walton to take the kids for a half a day.

I was in Jaws 2 when they filmed it at the holidome in Navarre.
Back then it was a oasis. Nothing there but that hotel. I'm sure it's better than the Bama beaches

Do you want to go to a beach? Yeah?
Pick one from OB to 30a. Don’t worry about what all the other people there are doing and you’ll have a much better time
ETA: meant for OP

Don't go to Gulf Shores. We will be taking that bitch over in a couple of weeks.

I find it interesting that there are always a few LSU fans who bash the AL Gulf Coast. I see a lot of your brethren there every summer repping purple and gold.
Also, the Ft. Morgan area is a great place to stay. Much more secluded (mostly beach houses except for a couple of condo complexes) but only a 15 minute drive back to Gulf Shores. Only “complaint” about it is that you can see natural gas rigs, but they are all several miles off of the coast.

I really like Navarre Beach. Just west of there is a long stretch of completely undeveloped beachfront. It’s a preserve/park: Gulf Islands National Seashore. Pack up some chairs and an ice chest and pick your spot. You can find complete isolation... your own private beach.
It’s like that almost all the way to Pensacola Beach.
Ft. Walton and PCB are easy drives from Navarre.
Juana’s Pagodas is a good spot for cocktails and casual dining.

I love Navarre. I really like how it's separated from the main drag. It keeps it nice & quite.
The only problem is that the seaweed can sometimes get stuck at the shore for days at a time. Someone told me that they did some dredging after Ivan to rehab the sand dunes, and that caused a sort of bowl effect in the water immediately off the shore. It can be pretty thick when it gets stuck like that, and of course there are plenty of jelly fish that get stuck with it.
Pensacola is really nice, particularly the eastern side of the island, which is very quiet. I've never really had that problem with seaweed there.
