• Live


  • There’s a reason – or really, many – that people who come to the Emerald Coast on vacation, on military assignment, or have just passed through often return to make it their home. It has something to do with our coastal lifestyle, of course, and the natural beauty that surrounds us. But more than that, it’s the people, the traditions, and the military heritage that makes them want to call this “home.”

    If you find yourself in that category, the Chamber is the right place to discover all that the Fort Walton Beach area has to offer. Our members can help you with real estate options, advise you on our award-winning schools, and connect you with utilities and other services once you’ve made your decision about where to live.

  • Getting Settled

    You’ll want to furnish that new abode with items from our retail members, and maybe even consult with an interior designer. And if you need repairs or remodeling, our members will be at your service! And once you’ve replaced that carpeting, you’ll want to keep it clean!

    Of course, you’ll need to eat! Whether you prefer to prepare your own meals from grocery store items or venture forth and discover the wide variety of dining and restaurant options, the Chamber’s Directory can be your guide – and our web site can help you with discounts and coupons.
