In our area, we are fortunate to have two premier beach destinations that merge almost seamlessly together. While they are neighbors, each offers a unique experience. The remarkable communities of which we speak are, of course, South Walton and Destin.
South Walton is comprised of a varied collection of “towns” that nestle predominantly along Scenic Highway 30A. Each offers their own interpretation of a life well lived by the beach.
The Choctawhatchee Basin Alliance (CBA) of Northwest Florida State College announces the fall session of its award winning eco-tourism initiative, Discover Roads Less Traveled: Eco-Adventures of Walton County.
“CBA’s eco-tours are intended to bring participants to local, off the beaten path environmental wonders,” states CBA’s eco-tour coordinator, Brandy Foley. “We hope that these tours will entice individuals to experience our local environment from a different perspective.”
Thanks to the hard work of a dedicated group of locals, South Walton has added an entire layer of recreation through artificial reef environments. The South Walton Artificial Reef Association (SWARA) has installed the first set of near shore reefs off our beaches.

Watercolor Merchants provide guests the opportunity to take the Southern coastal lifestyle home with them, long after their beach vacation is done. Whether browsing for local art, shopping for an investment piece for your wardrobe, adventure seeking, or searching for a fine meal and a glass of wine, WaterColor’s chic yet laid back beach vibe invites you to stay and play awhile.
Let’s face it…there’s lots to do in South Walton. But if a little solitude and a break from the hustle and bustle of the Scenic 30A strip is what you need, a bike ride into the woods is the ticket. You may not even see another person all day. If you prefer boots to wheels, the hiking is just as good.

WaterColor Inn & Resort lies along the Gulf of Mexico and reaches into the coatal woodlands bordering Western Lake and Grayton Beach State Park to the west and the town of Seaside to the east. It's a family favorite for beach fun and a place where memories are made.
