Maybe it's activity from the nearby Pensacola Naval Air Station, but this stretch of the gulf has apparently had hundreds of UFO sightings in the past few decades; Shoreline Park in Gulf Breeze is a particular hot spot, where you're likely to find local skywatchers (including members of the Mutual UFO Network, which meets here regularly) with binoculars and lawn chairs. Sightings have been reported right along the coast – it's as good a reason as any to spread out a picnic or beach blanket and gaze up at the stars.
