"Beach town without as many tourists"

Fort Walton Beach (FWB) is a typical resort community right on the gulf coast with a military feel! Surrounded by two military bases, this area has a ton of military families. This town is all about the water and outdoor activities. It’s definitely a place for active individuals and families. Depending on where in Fort Walton, the beach is only 5-15 minutes away. Fort Walton Beach has everything from a thriving downtown with restaurants, shops, farmers markets etc to a fantastic Uptown shopping area with upscale brand names surrounded by great restaurants. Though, Fort Walton can get congested with traffic as it is not huge. Also, during tourist season, Destin is packed which means I-98 ‘bloody 98’ as the local call it, along Fort Walton Beach is very busy bumper to bumper traffic.
