Biking is a great activity to enjoy as the scenic bike path meanders along 30A. Bike over to Blue Mountain Beach Creamery for some homemade scoops that will have your taste buds coming back! You'll have an array of dining options to choose from! 

30A is a fantastic destination, the beaches are some of the world’s best with sugar white sand and emerald green waters. You will find plenty of beach accesses along a 17 mile stretch of Santa Rosa Beach. It boasts unique shopping, fantastic cuisine, and activities for everyone; kayak rentals, bike rentals, paragliding, fishing, golfing, hiking, swimming, tennis -- you'll find it all right here on 30A.

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 the 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!

Great house and location
Pistachio By The Sea, we loved this house and location! The neighborhood is great, and the pool is super nice. The nearby beach access was really busy, but there were multiple access locations, so we could choose the one that was the best each day. We will definitely be staying here again…

Other than overly punitive fine for lost rubber wrist band, the house and experience was GREAT!
The house is very nice and has the comforts of home. Loved the private front porch off the main bedroom. Great location!

Beautiful beach home
We really enjoyed our stay! The house is spacious, tons of room for our family of 5. Our teens loved the bikes. Easy bike ride or golf cart ride to the beach and many restaurants! We loved the cowgirl kitchen and shunkgulleys. Each a short golf cart ride away. Will definitely stay here again.

Mediocre
Nice property, not cleaned well, construction next door made for unrelaxing vacation. Pool closed down for 2 days without notice. Positive side, location was ideal and close to beaches. Property nice and plenty of room for family. Lots of amenities available.
