The Navarre Beach Lifeguards plan to host vintage cars, motorcycles, surfboards, boats and more at the lifeguard station on Blue Heron Court, including a parade of vehicles and open air, open house.

There’s a variety of wildlife teeming just below the surface and down into the depths of the Gulf of Mexico, from tiny microbials to massive great white sharks and every shape and size between.
