Gulf Islands National Seashore (a portion is located inbetween Gulf Breeze and Midway on HWY. 98) There are large area's of grass beds along there. There is also a "Welcome Center" with a nice parking lot that you can park in.
I used to snorkel along there when I was younger...and occasionally still do if I want to see small marine life.
You can expect to see anything from seahorse, baby/large flounder, redfish, trout, puffers....there is a lot to entertain little kids. It is also very shallow...a couple feet on a high tide!!

Good luck! Let us know how it goes!!
