Gulf Breeze- This unit is 1/2 of a brick duplex in the heart of Gulf Breeze, just minutes from Pensacola Beach and the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. At this location in Gulf Breeze, you can simply walk or bike to dining, shopping and many local parks & amenities. You could also take a short drive (5 minutes) over the bridge to enjoy all that Pensacola Beach has to offer! Gulf Breeze is located on a coastal peninsula making it a haven for water sports, fishing & a year round beach vacation lifestyle! The city has numerous parks, including the neighborhood kids park around the corner, Woodland Park on the bayou, Dead Man’s Island nature preserve & Shoreline Park (with public boat launch, beach volleyball courts, picnic pavilions, BBQ grills, fishing pier, skatepark, frisbee golf course, tennis courts, splash pad & kids park). ABOUT THE AREA Gulf Breeze is surrounded by water on 3 of 4 sides & it borders the Live Oaks National Park (hiking/biking trails, wildlife and miles of natural coastline). Two bridges (both are within minutes of this home) connect the community to Pensacola Beach (South) and the city of Pensacola (North), providing quick and easy access to both the beach and the city for a wide variety of fun activities. Drive South, just over the bridge, to Pensacola Beach to enjoy a day at the beach, eat great seafood, stroll the boardwalk for shopping and dining, explore historic Fort Pickens, rent jet skis, go parasailing or paddle boarding, fish off the beach pier or go deep sea fishing with a local guide. Take a dolphin cruise or go nighttime “glow kayaking” on the quiet water of the Intracoastal waterway. Check out the go-karts & ropes course at the Adventure Park, go mini-golfing, or catch a family friendly evening concert right on Casino Beach during Bands on the Beach. Ride the Beach Trolley around the island, or rent a golf cart/bikes. Purchase a Resort Pass to spend the day at a beach-front resort pool or just relax in your personal beach chair on the clean white sand. Swim in the beautiful Gulf of Mexico or walk along the beach at sunset. It’s all minutes away from this home. Drive North, over the 3-mile bridge, into Historic Downtown Pensacola for dining, shopping, nightlife, Blue Wahoos baseball, Cordova Mall, the Civic Center (concert & event venue) and the Pensacola Airport. Drive East, directly into the Live Oaks National Park and then continue East, to reach the Gulf Breeze Zoo or a little further East to the Navarre Beach Marine Sanctuary, Marine Science Center and Sea Turtle Conservation Center, as well as a marine sanctuary offering artificial reefs for scuba diving and snorkeling, and Florida’s longest fishing pier. Drive West, through Pensacola, to reach the National Naval Aviation Museum and the Pensacola Lighthouse.
