Take a look at the beautiful and serene city of Parker; known for its gorgeous sunrises, sunsets, moon rises and moon sets overlooking the inter-coastal waterway. Parker is an incorporated municipality utilizing a five member city council consisting of four council members and an elected Mayor, who is the acting chief executive officer.

A small community of approximately 5,000 citizens. Parker is nestled amid St. Andrews Bay and Martin Lake. Its 6 mile southern boundary is coastal and borders Tyndall Air Force Base. Parker, a quiet neighborhood community, has a large sports complex, a unique educational park, a very active volunteer fire department and its own police department. Our motto is “a community of friendly neighbors”.

Founded as a community in the early 1800's; the first known description of the Parker area appeared in, A View of West Florida. This journal contained the first American survey of the St. Andrews Bay area and the survey identified a place called "Loftin" on the east bank of St. Andrews Bay.

So if you are looking for a place to fish, water ski or do some boating, this is the place; if you love to shop there are many area stores for your convenience within driving distance.
