We are vacationing at Santa Rosa. I am wondering about fun things to do in and around the area. We have stayed on 30A several times but this will be the first time here in Santa Rosa. We have a toddler that we are taking with her cousins. What is some stuff we should check out? We will probably spend most of our time at the beach but need some other ideas as well. Thanks!🏖️☀️
We're here for the holiday and the purple flag has been posted. There are a ton of tiny, dime sized gelatinous blobs on shore and in the water. Some are slightly larger oval with a purple stripe down the middle. What are these pests? How risky is it to swim?
My kids and I are visiting in the fall (preteens and teen). I am trying to decide the best place to stay. We would like something easily accessible to shops/restaurants by walking or bike. We are looking for a relaxed vibe and being able to ride bikes most places as well as maximize our time at the beach. Which of these 3 options would you suggest - Seagrove, Seacrest, Gulf Place
My family will be staying around Miramar Beach/Santa Rosa Beach for the holiday and we’re looking for somewhere with lots of screens, maybe a sports bar atmosphere, but we have a few teenagers with us! Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
Was last in 30A area twenty years ago and the area has changed a lot. Dying to return with our kids (22 and 19). Is coming in August a mistake? What area/town would you recommend we stay that has nice beach access and walkability to shops and restaurants without breaking the bank? Have limited travel windows due to their college and work.
We are experienced rental property owners, but that is long term rentals that we self manage. We are exploring the idea of purchasing a vacation rental property but we would need to pay someone to manage. I have no idea what the going rate for that is in the area and was wondering if anyone had any idea. I’d want someone local who takes good care of the property. We love Anna Maria and 30A so we’re really only considering those two areas.
The restaurant Crush Wine Bar. It sat kind of near the corner next to Amavida Coffee Roasters and Mercantile in the Seaside Amphitheater area. Anyways, they had wine (obv), sushi and other various tapas and cocktails. I remember really enjoying it. Can anyone tell me another place that gives similar vibes to Crush?! Thanks!
Also... off topic, but bonus pts if you can give me ideas for Thanksgiving day- restaurants/employees to support that may be open/working... or that were open last year on Thanksgiving.
Willing to go to Destin or Panama City and anywhere in between- gotta be a really good pick though for that (we are staying off 30a).
Thanks Beach Friends! 🏖
Can someone message me I’m looking for something lol
