Goatfeathers Seafood Market Fire | Panama City Beach News

A major fire erupted at Goatfeathers Seafood Market in Santa Rosa Beach Wednesday morning, forcing firefighters into a defensive stance as flames raged on the second floor and threatened structural collapse. Though visibility was poor, everyone escaped safely — no injuries to civilians or first responders. Investigators from the South Walton Fire District, working with the State Fire Marshal, believe the blaze started accidentally in the kitchen. Crews battled the fire for hours, even staying into the night to prevent re-ignition. With damage severe, the market faces a tough recovery — but the community can breathe easy: no one was hurt. Investigators are back on site Thursday to dig deeper into how this unexpected disaster unfolded. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
