Wow, I had an incredible time at this beach for a whole week! Just be aware that the parking lot only fits about 10 vehicles, so it's best to arrive early to secure a spot. It's important not to park on the road or curve, as you'll likely get a ticket.
During our six days at this beach access, we were fortunate enough to experience two absolutely amazing days with calm, yellow-flagged water that showcased the turquoise emerald green color the panhandle is famous for. We even got to watch dolphins play in the water while we relaxed in the waist-high pool created by the sandbar during high tide the night before.
The beach is also serviced by friendly local beach ambassadors who ensure everyone follows the local ordinances and provides helpful information about the area. (Shoutout to the lady from OH and chilldude from Dallas for making our week even better!)
If you're interested, you can purchase a package deal online that includes two lounge chairs and an umbrella for $70. Just keep in mind that glass containers and open fires without permits are not allowed, and oversized popup tailgate tents should be set up away from the water closer to the dunes.
Overall, this beach perfectly captures the essence of the 30A experience and is a prime example of why the panhandle still has a special place in my heart even five years after leaving.
