Best public beach access on 30a Florida
The 30A corridor along Florida’s Emerald Coast is known for its stunning beaches and charming towns, each with its own character. While many of the beaches here are private or tied to specific resorts, there are several great public beach accesses that provide easy and beautiful access to the coastline. Here are some of the best:
Located just west of Seaside, Grayton Beach State Park offers one of the best public beach accesses in the area, with ample parking and restrooms. It’s a more natural, less crowded option, with beautiful sand dunes and stunning views. You can also access hiking trails and coastal dune lakes here. It's a part of a state park so you will have to pay $5 per car to enter.
At the eastern end of 30A, Inlet Beach provides multiple public beach accesses with a wider beach area and fewer crowds than its neighbors. It also has a great location near Camp Helen State Park and Lake Powell, a coastal dune lake perfect for exploring by kayak or paddleboard.
Santa Clara Beach is located just west of Seaside and WaterColor, this access has a small parking lot and toilets. But watch out as It can be crowded in pick Summer.
Located near Seagrove Beach, Eastern Lake provides a less crowded beach access with a unique mix of coastal dunes and lake views. It's a great spot for a more private beach day, and the lake itself is a fun spot to explore, especially if you love paddleboarding or kayaking. Note that there is no parking on site.
Each of these beach access points offers something unique, from less crowded spots to scenic views and easy access. Whether you're looking for quiet beauty, family-friendly amenities, or the perfect photo backdrop, there’s a public beach access along 30A that will suit your needs.
Hope to see you soon in Florida.
