Juana's Pagodas & Sailors' Grill is Navarre's oldest family-owned beach bar, restaurant, and entertainment complex, operating continuously since 1989.

The complex hosts private events across two dedicated spaces: Club Pagodas, a climate-controlled indoor venue accommodating up to 100 guests, and the Sunset Beach Stage, a large covered outdoor deck beside the sound with capacity for up to 200. Both spaces are well suited to wedding receptions, milestone celebrations, corporate gatherings, and team events.
