The Emerald Coast Fitness Foundation

The Emerald Coast Fitness Foundation is a public charity formed to develop physical fitness and water safety among the youth and adults of Okaloosa County by providing facilities and programs that will deliver opportunities for instruction, training, and competitive excellence, in sports. 

The Emerald Coast Fitness Foundation proudly manages the Taj Renee Community Aquatic Center (Destin), and the Bernie R. Lefebvre Aquatic Center (FWB).   

Our pool facilities are carefully programmed, guarded and maintained by a committed staff of qualified lifeguards, pool operators, and managers.  We are the only organization in Okaloosa County that provides pool facilities and activities for the general public.
