30A, Florida is one of the best places to visit if you are a tourist who does not want to be crowded with throngs of other people on the beaches. Instead of having to find a small place by yourself on the beach during the middle of the afternoon, you can enjoy solitude, peacefulness, and serenity during your upcoming vacation if you head to the northwestern coast of Florida. Our Magnolia Cottages by the Sea rentals give you the perfect launching point to explore the area to your heart’s content!

Why Choose 30A?
Called the Emerald Coast due to the bright waters and the white sand beaches, this area is great for those who want to relax on the beach, hit the surf, and check out the local shops and restaurants. 30A is an impeccable stretch of the northwestern section of Florida that is less visited than other areas. Not only can you enjoy reading a book on the beach, but you can do tons of local activities in the nearby area.
Point Washington State Forest
One of the best things to do during your stay on 30A is to head to Point Washington State Forest. If you have kids with you, you enjoy biking, or you want to go for a nice long walk, this 15,000-acre natural space is great for escaping crowds and connecting with nature. Featuring over 10 natural communities, this is the perfect place to view incredible waters, the natural wildlife, and disconnect from the world.
Gulf Place
Another cool place to eat during your vacation in our Magnolia Cottages by the Sea vacation rentals is to check out Gulf Place. This artist colony is an eccentric day trip that you can take from the beach, offering luxury beach houses, dining opportunities, cute cafes, vintage shops, and much more!
Topsail Beach State Preserve
Just like the beaches in the nearby area, like Santa Rosa Beach and Blue Mountain Beach, this beach preserve is a popular day trip for those who are vacationing on 30A. This pristine beach offers bright emerald waters, white sand, and great opportunities for surfing, boogie boarding, and sun tanning.
Restaurant Hopping
Another fun activity to do during your stay on 30A is to check out the best restaurants in the nearby area. Fortunately for those who are staying here, there is no shortage of restaurants, cafes, bars, and pubs for you to go to! It doesn’t matter if you are in the mood for fresh seafood, filling brunch, or a few drinks after dinner, there’s something for everyone!
Personally, we recommend heading to Pazzo Italiano Santa Rosa Beach to have some hearty Italian food for a filling dinner after a long day of exploring. You can get some of the classics, like spaghetti, chicken parmesan, or ravioli with a side of garlic bread to split with the table. Wash down the filling dinner with some red wine or white wine to really make it a full Italian meal.
Or you can head to Bayou Bill’s Crab House to get some of the best seafood in the entire state of Florida! We may be biased, but this tasty seafood restaurant is a great spot for a casual meal, takeaway food, or delivery to your beach house. We recommend dining in at this vibrant and fun restaurant for those who are staying in the nearby area. You really can’t beat the upbeat and fun atmosphere here in the restaurant! Plus, the raw menu, oysters, and fresh seafood can’t be beaten. Try Billy’s Seafood Gumbo featuring a clam-based roux, fish, okra, and tomatoes. Or you can split Wisconsin cheese curds or blue crab dip with the entire table for a good way to start the meal. As a main, we recommend trying the Pan Sauteed New Orleans dish, featuring lightly dusted fish, Louisiana crawfish tails, spiced cream sauce, and hushpuppies. Another fan favorite is Bill’s Alfredo with mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach, and fresh garlic bread!
