Did we mention they have glow-in-the-dark kayaking?
FInding the perfect spot for a beach getaway can be deceptively tricky- it's tough finding spots that aren't crowded and overwhelmed with tourists. Beach towns like Myrtle Beach and Panama City Beach are well-known, but they're also often dirty and overcrowded- not ideal for a relaxing and scenic beach vacation. More and more, people are on the lookout for those special "hidden gem" places.
Beach-loving TikTok user @brittanyroseblog found her hidden gem in Navarre Beach, FL. Nestled between the better-known beach towns of Pensacola and Destin, Navarre is a small city the Florida Panhandle with a beach community that is a perfect spot for beachgoers. Brittany's video makes it look absolutely perfect.

This is dreamy. The waters are so crystal clear- that shot she got of the dolphin swimming was amazing! We'd love to row out on one of those glow-in-the-dark kayaks as well! This is definitely a gem of a spot for a perfect beach vacation.
Navarre Beach is a favorite to locals and visitors alike. "I lived there ?? it's a beautiful area," shared @hlbrgjoshua. "So happy it's part of my backyard. It's gorgeous on our Gulf Coast," praised @gemigirl13. "We ??Navarre Beach!" commented the Navarre Beach Area Chamber's TikTok account... admittedly, they might be a little biased!
"My little family can't wait to go back! we loved it and my son will be with us next time and it will be his first beach trip. ??" said @blondebabeee94. Aw!!!
Understandably, however, some locals did not want their town's secret getting out! "Don't tell people about it!!!!! It's our hidden gem!" pleaded @datsmycoco. "It's not hidden anymore. It used to be such a quiet, beautiful place. Now it's getting to where it's as crowded as Destin," lamented @melissaakamom3.
Sadly, that's the problem with most hidden gems- they typically don't stay hidden forever. However, Navarre and the Navarre Beach community are still relatively lesser-known compared to many other Florida Panhandle beach towns and if you plan your vacation right, such as going there in the off-season, you can still enjoy a refreshing, relaxing beachy getaway!
