Thanksgiving Family Fun

Thanksgiving is a time for family, fun, and creating lasting memories—and Navarre has the perfect setting. While most families are planning meals or watching football, why not plan an active, adventurous holiday at Navarre Family Watersports Adventure Complex? Here, your day can include thrilling water adventures, high-flying ziplines, and relaxing moments on our private beach—all in one place.

Start your day on the water, where there are multiple ways to explore the Santa Rosa Sound. Hop on one of our pontoons or Waverunners for a cruise along the emerald waters, keeping an eye out for playful dolphins or simply enjoying the gentle breeze. For families looking for a slower pace, kayaks and paddleboards offer a perfect way to get closer to nature. All rentals come with life jackets for every passenger and tank of fuel, so you can focus on the fun without worrying about extras. Booking ahead ensures your preferred vessel is ready when you arrive.

Navigate age-appropriate challenges and glide along ziplines with breathtaking views. Closed-toe shoes are required, and comfortable clothing is recommended for the best experience. Safety is our top priority—every guest receives a full safety briefing and certified equipment.

Even without our seasonal inflatable waterpark (which will return in mid-May), there’s still plenty of beach fun for guests enjoying Adventure Complex activities. Our private beach is designed so that paying guests always have space to relax and play. Build sandcastles, enjoy beach games like Frisbee or paddleball, or simply soak up the sun and stunning views of the Santa Rosa Sound. It’s the perfect spot to unwind between adventures.

From water thrills to high-flying fun, the Navarre Family Watersports Adventure Complex has something for everyone—even without the inflatable waterpark during the winter season.
