Is It Safe to Swim at Navarre Beach Today?
No. Double red means the water is closed to the public — this is the highest hazard level and it is not a judgment call. Rip current risk is high, surf is running 3.9 ft, and a High Surf Warning takes effect this afternoon at 1:00 PM CDT. Stay out of the water entirely, keep kids well back from the wave line, and don't wade past your ankles.
