Area Attractions:

Greenway station is 30A's newest destination for gathering, shopping, and dining in Seagrove Beach. Greenway Station features known retailers Wild Olives Tapas and Wine Bar, Pecan Jack's Ice Cream, Coast Hippie and YOLO Board + Bike, plus introduces Local Cantina Mexican Restaurant, Souper Jenny Coffee Roasters, Canopy Road Café, and more.

“The Big Chill” is the community center for Prominence and is a quick 10-minute bike ride your home or 1.6 mile drive.  The Big Chill offers something for folks of all ages and tastes, from tacos and tequila, to wings, burgers and shakes, a stop here is quick, tasty and convenient, and comes with a side of entertainment at the outdoor amphitheater. It's a great place to catch a concert, sporting event, or a movie on the lawn.  

Seaside is a short drive away and is most widely known for being featured in the Truman Show with Jim Carrey. Its incredible architecture has helped to make it famous but also its faithful replication of the kind of seaside town that used to be common up and down the coast. Seaside has its own Farmer's Market, post office, Repertory Theater and neighborhood school. It boasts unique shopping, fantastic cuisine and the incredible architecture that makes Seaside famous. There are activities for everyone: kayak rentals, bike rentals, paragliding, fishing, golfing, hiking, swimming, tennis -- you'll find it all right here.

The snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Sea Turtle Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 783 feet out from the Grayton Beach State Park access, it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Sea Turtle Reef is at a depth of 12-19 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

My wife and I were staying in Watersound to get the feel of communities along 30A. The home we stayed in served our needs well and definitely is a desirable gated community. Their beach access is probably the most beautiful beach on 30A.

The layout is inviting. Very clean, well-furnished and comfortable home. Spacious and nicely decorated. This is our second time to stay at this home because we enjoy it so much. The pool is close by and a perfect place to relax. The boardwalk to the beach is convenient. Very safe and quiet location; gated community.

This trip was everything and then some! So close and so safe. The house was beautiful and so clean. Everyone had such a pleasant time and was so comfortable. I really wish there would have been a map of the property to make things a bit easier! We never found access to the beach until the last day lol but all was well! 10/10 and can’t wait to book again!
