A new restaurant is opening on Navarre Beach. Chad Volland, owner, and Danny Bilger, consultant, are renovating the restaurant formerly known as Cocodries and opening Beach Monkey March 1.
“It’s not just us [changing]. The beach out here has come alive…we haven’t had this feeling out here since probably 2006 or 2007,” said Volland. “We’re trying to make it more family friendly and fun out here than it used to be.”
