Bordering the entrance to the Watersound Origins community, the growing collection of shops, restaurants, offices and event spaces are designed to serve the community and surrounding areas.

Modica Market, which opened March 17, 1989 by Charles Modica Sr. and his wife, Sarah, began with a simple deal-sealing handshake between Modica and Seaside founder Robert Davis, and has since flourished into one of the most recognizable businesses along Highway 30A. As the market celebrates three decades in business, the next generation of Modicas — Charles Modica Jr. and Carmel Modica — run the store together.
Seaside is the picture-perfect little SoWal beach town where you can reach every shop and restaurant by foot or bike.
