Many Who Know Florida A To Z Prefer 30A
“The top Florida vacation spots for snowbirds have been well known – and popularly patronized – for generations. But another sun-and-surf paradise that wasn’t on most folks’ radar just a few years ago is suddenly finding favor with visitors from all over the South and Midwest. Some call it a hidden gem, others term it a sleeper find and some refer to it as the South’s best-kept-secret beach playground.” – Jeffrey Steele, Forbes Magazine
Those who know best simply call it 30A
30A is 26-mile stretch of beaches made up of 16 gulf-side towns along Florida’s Emerald Coast, 30A extends between the better-known cities of Destin and Panama City, and includes such quiet beach villages as Rosemary Beach, Seaside, Aly’s and Santa Rosa Beach. The small beach towns instead are havens of quiet convenience and time-honored charm. Because of the stunning architecture, coastal cuisine and boutique shops, 30A lends itself to an array of visitors, from posh to bohemian. At At Echelon our vacation rentals have an aesthetic of luxury juxtaposed with the playfulness of the beach and the exclusivity of the location is coveted because of the surprising ease of accessibility.Â
“Add to this the fact that top 30A feeder markets like Nashville and Atlanta are easily within a five- or six-hour driving distance, and it’s little wonder 30A is a favorite for family road trips” – Sam Cobb, CEO of ELP Luxury Vacations
