This charming community has everything you need including two heated pools, tennis courts, (rackets and balls supplied by HOA) a Pickle Ball court and charcoal grills at every building along the green space facing the ocean. Seagrove Beach is one of the charming coastal communities that sits on 30A nestled between Seaside and Watersound. Offers both “Lakelife” as well as “Saltlife”!
Enjoy several dining options just a walk or bike ride away from the 30A communities such as Old Florida Fish House, Steamboat Grill, Buddy’s Seafood Market, and Kahve and Cream for your coffee and sweets.
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.
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!

It was our first time here and we loved it! The location is great. The only thing I wish was different is the beach access in front of the property is private for another place, it makes up for it by having a shuttle that will drop you off and pick you up from the public beach. We will definitely be back!

Deonne, Thank you for the 5-star review. We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your first visit with us. We strive to provide a comfortable and convenient experience for all our guests, and we're glad the shuttle service to the public beach was able to make up for the private access in front of the property. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
