This is a great little beach on the bay near the east gate of Eglin AFB. The sand is maintained well. And it is right next to Eglin rec center. It is always busy in the summer months. Lots of people and families. I love that some times you can see dolphins swimming in the water. Sooo fun! It’s not an ocean beach but is still fun! Rent a kayak or standup paddle board and have yourself a great time, just watch out for dolphins :-)

This is one of my favorite spots to go to whether it’s to just relax or study. Beautiful water!

Its my go to beach after a long day at school or a place to let the kids roam free for a few hours before dinner and bed routine, even though its not the blue waters of seaside or the typical expectations of destin beaches I go because its on base and its convenient. I wish the base would take more time to clean the sand but its also the people who use it, the military folks who should at least throw their trash in the trash cans and no use the sand as the cigarette ash tray. When we’re lucky I don’t have to deal with any of that, the plus is that there’s hermit crabs to catch, its pretty much waist deep for people with little ones for a good 4 feet away from the shore, sometimes you’ll see dolphins in the bay swimming by, and the waves aren’t too strong that you’re worried about a rip current taking your family away. It’s used a lot for squadron functions and parties so keep in mind, first come first serve.
