Nutz 0 #2 August 14, 2003 Headland is just outside Dothan, Al. I've never been there so I know nothing about it. Gold Coast Skydiving is just over in MS. Never been there either. Those are the only two within reasonable driving distance from Ft Walton as far as I know. (But what the heck do I know.)

We have two guys up here from there and they said it's a great place. Plus they have a twin otter. Nothing like a little southern hospitality.
