White sandy beaches, and turquoise sparkling water; Navarre Beach is everything you'll want from a vacation.

Navarre Beach - FloridaCuddling the Gulf of Mexico, Navarre beach has been the local tourist spot for many vacationers seeking a destination to reveal all and go nude. Although in the past years security has become tight in prohibiting this popular bare-all activity, you'll still find tourists on the east side of the beach going au naturel. Strip down and join in under the sun - just make sure to have your clothes handy.

Accommodations: Navarre beach offers many places for you to unpack your flowing skirts and flirty shoes. Whether you choose a 5-star hotel, a local B&B, one of the many resort condos or one of the campgrounds, Navarre has an ample amount of places to hang your bikini.

Navarre Beach Local Activities: Enjoy a relaxing day walking down the secluded areas of the beach and take in all the beauty this beach has to offer. The restoration project to rebuild Navarre Beach following hurricane Ivan wrapped up in 2006 and the area is now home to wildlife and adventurous activities. Try canoeing up the largest freshwater rivers in the state. Kayak and hike up the large stretch of rivers and trails offered along the coast. Finish your night sitting and watching the sunset followed by skinny dipping in your own secluded area of the beach.

Navarre Beach Attractions: Must-see attractions include Fort Pickens - the fort built to protect Pensacola bay during the pre-civil war are. Also topping the list of must-see attractions is the National Museum of Naval Aviation, one of the largest air and space museums in the world. If you're bringing the kids, or just so happen to be an animal lover, visit the zoo in Gulf Breeze where you will get an up close and personal look at endangered and dangerous animals like the Bengal Tiger, red kangaroos and African wild dogs.

On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Julia Rosien said "Great to meet you as well, Terri. And yes, we adore the Bay of Fundy :-) While I'll agree it's no longer parka weather in your neck of the woods, it's not quite string bikini weather either. Shall we toast to it and let the beer warm us up? Happy St Paddy's Day! Julia"
On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Terri said "hey Travel girls, great to hear that you love our Bay of Fundy here on the east coast of Canada as much as you love Tim Horton's ...and, as a Bay of Fundy chick, I love the green tide analogy. For sure, there will be lots of fun times down here around St Paddy's day but I just want to send you a correction to say you certainly won't be needing a parka? to visit at this time of year. It's +8 to +10 degress Celius (that's in the 50s F for our American friends) - definitely well above parka weather. haha So nice that the birds are chirping and the maple sap is flying out of the trees and, ultimately, on to our pancakes. Happy spring! Terri the Bay of Fundy blogger bayoffundy.blogspot.com "

On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Sad and heavy heart said "On a note about the roads of Totrola which are steep, and windy and narrow, all the more reason that tour vehicles should have regular safety checks, SEATBELTS (which dirvers should mandate use or not allow passengers to continue with the tour, driver's should go slow, and Princess Cruise Lines should do extensive background checks, and not hire people with the nick-name of Crash-Dummy."
On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Jan said "We were also on the ship with our friends, had spent the day at the beach in Tortola where the slider on my Omega came off, "broke" and lost. I had just purchased it on board the ship the day prior. But nothing can compare to the loss of a family member. The Captain had everyones attention for the announcement. Captain Draper done a great job informing the passengers of the accident. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rumphrey family."
