A greeting of powdery-white sand, clear turquoise water, and a decidedly sunny disposition kicks off your day. From there, the salt-whipped streets teeming with flip-flopped bike riders instantly shift you into vacation mode.

These tiny towns fit together like members of a family, each with its own personality. Grayton Beach, the oldest of the bunch, is like that cool uncle who once followed Phish around the country, selling roadside tacos for gas money. Seaside sticks closer to the straight and narrow, more akin to a khakis-wearing dad. Alys Beach is as chic as that jet-setting aunt who visits during the holidays, freshly tanned from a trip to the Caribbean, while Rosemary Beach is the quiet one who enjoys the simpler things, like reading while sunbathing—responsibly, of course, under a wide-brimmed hat. Wander from one town to the next, and your view of this Southern coast will constantly change. Sure, there’s a little sibling rivalry, but family is family. The beaches of 30A just want to show everybody a good time.

It is home to many popular towns and neighborhoods like Alys Beach, Blue Mountain Beach, Dune Allen, Grayton Beach, Gulf Place, Rosemary Beach, Santa Rosa Beach, Seacrest, Seagrove, Seaside, WaterColor, WaterSound and Watersound Origins.
