Williams Creek is a creek in Navarre, Florida.[1] [2] The creek is a tributary body of water to the Santa Rosa Sound. In recent time, the creek has been a subject of advocacy and controversy for the cleaning of local waterways and the preventing of sewage effluent from entering those same waterways.[3] [4]
The creek is named after the Williams Family, who lived in near the creek in the early to mid 19th century.[5]
