Scenic Highway 30A

Overview

Scenic Highway 30A is a 24-mile corridor that hugs the coastline in Northwest Florida’s Walton County. You will see sugar-white sand beaches and rare coastal dune lakes along this breathtaking drive.

This byway is an eclectic mix of hot Caribbean colors and soft pastels, with architecture to match each community’s charm, whether it be Old Florida’s traditional 2-3 story homes, the cottages of Seaside with white picket fences, or New Urbanism.

Miles of greenway trails connect state parks, preserves, and residential areas along this byway.

The byway is built upon a strong existing history of tourism to the region, including a separate “30A” brand with an enormous following. This byway region includes some of Florida’s most popular tourist beaches.

Associated Resources

These are specific resources for this byway. See General Byway Resources (this will be a different section of the site) for connections to organizations affecting all byways in Florida. Highway 30A is the heart of a successful “30A” brand which is not associated with the Scenic Highway 30A byway organization. We point this out since “30A” is prominent on social media and app stores. The 30A brand sites and tours are a great resource for those traveling on 30A, but the official byway link is where you can find information about participating in and supporting the official byway organization.
