The Navarre Beach Causeway is a bridge in Navarre, Florida,[1][2][3] connecting the beach and mainland sides of the community.[1] The bridge travels over the Santa Rosa Sound, which in turn, is part of the Intracoastal Waterway.[1][4] The bridge is currently owned and managed by Santa Rosa County, as part of the roads and bridges department.[4][5][6]
The bridge is a centerpoint of the community and is included in the logos and symbols of many local businesses. The locally famous Navarre Beach sign is located on the mainland base of the bridge.
The Florida Department of Transportation rates the bridge as "functionally obsolete" due to it not meeting modern and current Coast Guard requirements regarding bridge height on the Intracoastal Waterway. However, the county has not made any signals that it intends to replace the bridge within the next decade.[4]
