Santa Rosa Beach
Founded in 1910, this town has a rich history. With sugary sand and azure water, it was recently named one of Travel and Leisure's Top Five Beach Towns in America. A hotspot for visitors from around the world, you'll love its family-friendly attractions, open neighborhood and natural landscape.
Topsail Beach State Preserve
Hike, bike, walk, or ride along the beach at one of Florida's most stunning state parks. Dappled sunlight falls over the dunes, and freshwater fishermen reel in rollicking bass, bream, and catfish. Sunbathe or beach comb in this little paradise.
Grayton Beach State Park
Consistently ranked one of America's most pristine and beautiful beaches, this is the ideal spot to canoe through the salt marsh ecosystem. Take a closer look at scrub oaks and magnolias in the coastal forest, or bike through five miles of pine-lined trails.
Blue Mountain Beach
The brilliant blue lupine flower is the namesake of this sparkling beach of turquoise water and incredible views from its peaks. Naturally, the flowers bloom along the water where you can also jog along trails or stroll with a homemade ice cream.
Deer Lake State Park
Coastal dune lakes are few and far apart in the United States. This one is adorned with magnolias, golden asters, goldenrod, and scrub oaks, along with rare indigenous plants like pitcher plants, spoonflower, and the lupine. Fish or stroll on the boardwalk and watch the migratory birds hop around.
