Flip Flops of Leeward, Seagrove Beach, Florida 30A Gulf Front Vacay!

Seagrove Beach, a quietly located, non-crowded, perfect little beach town right on the gulf of 30A. Guests come from all over the world to our little patch of heaven, "30A".  They started to discover this area back when Jim Carrey made the town of Seaside Proper famous in his movie "The Truman Show." Yet, even if you've never seen that movie or heard of Jim Carrey, that's okay because chances are your friends, colleague, or members of your family have already been to 30A and told you about this little patch of heaven.

Where exactly is Seagrove Beach and is it close to restaurants, shopping, touristy stuff?

YES! Seagrove Beach is just a 5-hour drive from Atlanta, Georgia towards the gulf of Florida. Many people have never heard of 30A, and that just astounds me, but lots know of Panama City Beach.  Let's fill you in about the beauty that is the quietly known patch of paradise on 30A.

Seagrove Beach is a quiet beach neighborhood situated right in between the two well-known towns of Rosemary Beach and Seaside, Florida. Firstly, I want to bring your attention to the surrounding area of our Seagrove Beach vacation spot and then dive into why you should book right now!

Some say there is nothing quite like Seaside, Florida, or the many beach communities that surround Seagrove Beach. As mentioned above, Seaside, made famous by Jim Carrey’s movie “The Truman Show”, has given flight to its area and brought hundreds of families to its town center over the years. Pictured - Guests enjoy dinner and gulf views at Bud and Ally's Waterfront Dining of Seaside. 

If you dream of walking into a "white picket fence" beach community with fabulous gulf front dining and maybe picking up a cute beach T-shirt, then this is the place for you to visit while here. The town center is filled with amazing, cutesy boutique shopping to fine dining gulf front spots and you can even take a stroll in their art district. Our guests love visiting the town center on bikes or by car. A bike ride is simply 12-15 mins away, while driving is less than 3 minutes.

Rosemary Beach, on the other hand, is our personal favorite town of all the 30A communities. It is the old German-town feel-good vibe that I love so much about this one.  I love seeing everyone out riding their bikes and walking around with their families. Rosemary Beach has a lovely community feel. The greens are beautiful and watching vacationers or its residents play Bocce Ball with a glass of wine is fantastic. Guests start their day in Seagrove Beach with that gorgeous, gulf front view from our condo, then head to either Seaside or Rosemary Beach for a day visit. All of the 30A Communities are unique.

Now onto our patch of paradise...

The Area... Seagrove Beach has a laid-back atmosphere, relaxing vibe, and it's really the perfect place to spend your vacation while exploring all of 30A. The 30A bike path is the way to travel. If you don't have bikes there are plenty of places to rent some for a day or week, depending on your stay time.  We even have a bike rack out front and the rental companies will supply you with helmets and locks.

Our condo is right on the gulf of Seagrove Beach that is considered a private beach and our guests enjoy a Seasonal Complimentary Beach Chair Setup for 2, gulf front views every day plus the gorgeous sun setting right outside on the white, sugary sands each night. Our Seagrove Sun slowly drifting down, saying for the evening “night, night folks” It’s a beautiful view to witness and many guests say it's the "highlight of the evening", so we invite you to see it for yourself soon. The beaches of South Walton are simply put, BEAU-TI-FUL.

Seagrove Beach allows guests to unwind, lessen worries for the day, and quietly get back to nature.

Just one row of chairs on our private beach and no hassles of any kind. Guests enjoy renting bikes from 30A Bike Rental right on the corner and biking to Seaside’s town center within a matter of minutes or even some walk along the water's edge straight to Seaside.

Reasons for Families to Stay in Seagrove Beach...

Are there kids to play with on the beach for my little ones?

YES! Our boys, ages 8 and 12, always find kids to play with on the beach, make friends and sandcastles together and end up having the time of their lives. Kids find one another and have a beautiful time here. Plus, the added bonus is Eastern Lake!  Kids love the lake here! Eastern Lake is right next door and it’s perfect for little ones who aren’t too fond of the ocean waves.

What's the condo-like... The logistics of the condo offers all the basics plus a few extras! Within the kitchen, you’ll find a full set of pots and pans, all utensils and plates, etc which you’ll need in your gulf front kitchen to whip up a meal. We have an oversized counter bar with high back chairs for eating inside or a white bar top table and chairs located right on the balcony.

Floor to ceiling windows in the living room so you don’t miss the sparkling emerald water views. In this room, you’ll see a small sofa and two high back chairs to relax in, plus a TV with Netflix. The queen master bedroom is equipped with a DVD TV combo and a large closet to hang your clothes, plus a small dresser.

Extras - Keurig and a regular coffee pot. A blender, microwave, electric oven, fridge, toaster, electric stovetop, dishes, and all basics you'll need. A community grill outdoors in the common area. It is a charcoal grill so you'll be responsible for your own charcoal.

Bunks in the Hallway...  There are bunks in the hall with curtains that shade away from the morning sunlight. The top bunk has a built-in safety rail and each bunk has its own light source. Kids love the bunk area.

Why come to Seagrove Beach... Because you should experience this place for yourself! We invite you to come down to the Emerald Coast to experience the simple pleasures of beach time. Restaurants are close by and we recommend ( as well as our guests) Bud and Ally's in Seaside Proper for a quick lunch with an amazing gulf view, Cafe Thirty-A from 5-6 is a two for one deal with a fabulous dining atmosphere, and Florida Fish House makes wonderful sushi and jazz play on the weekends. There are numerous options, but these are the faves around Seagrove.  If you're a night owl, then we would recommend The Pearl upstairs bar on the weekends with a spinning DJ. More like a South Miami vibe in the heart of Rosemary Beach. See, we have it all!

MARCH - OCTOBER EVERY YEAR! Included in your beach vacation from March till October is a seasonal beach chair set! Sprawl out on your private beach and lounge in chairs while watching the kids play in the gulf, sipping cool drinks, or sunning.
