Behind Juana’s Pagodas
A beginner-friendly sound-side beach launch in Navarre with easy water access and kayak and paddleboard rentals on site.
What to know before you go
The beach behind Juana’s Pagodas is one of the easier places to get a kayak or paddleboard onto the sound side of Navarre Beach. You launch directly from the sandy waterfront into protected sound-side water rather than starting in Gulf surf.
Juana’s and Navarre Beach Ski & Sail currently offer kayak and stand-up paddleboard rentals during the season, and their current guidance describes the equipment as beginner-friendly. The waterfront can get busy with boats and other rentals, so stay aware of traffic and check wind conditions before heading out.
Your Business
This placement can feature a local rental company, outfitter, restaurant, tourism business, or other brand relevant to paddlers.
