30A is a scenic stretch of small beach towns along the Florida Gulf Coast. Each town has its own personality, but all share the same beautiful white sand beaches and clear emerald water. Some of the towns you may hear about during the weekend include: -Inlet Beach -Rosemary Beach -Alys Beach -Seaside -Watercolor -Grayton Beach It’s a very relaxed, walkable area full of great restaurants, little shops, bike paths, and of course, the beach! ( we cannot wait for y'all to be here! )
The two closest airports are: ✈️ Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport (ECP) – Panama City Beach ✈️ Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport (VPS) – Destin Both airports are about 30–60 minutes from Inlet Beach and have plenty of rental car options.
If you're choosing between the two airports, we often suggest ECP because it is a very easy airport to navigate and usually the simplest option for Uber rides into the 30A area.
Not necessarily! If you’re flying in and prefer not to rent a car, we recommend flying into ECP and taking an Uber to your rental in Inlet Beach or Rosemary Beach. From there you’ll be in a great location where you can: -ride bikes around town -walk to the welcome party -walk to amazing restaurants -explore the shops and beaches The only other time you may need transportation is for the ceremony in Grayton Beach, and then heading back to the airport.
We recommend staying in Inlet Beach, Rosemary Beach, or Seacrest if you want to be close to the welcome party and lots of restaurants and shops. There are many beautiful rental homes and condos in these areas!
Yes! If you are driving and just need a place for yourself (rather than a large house), we highly recommend: -Lodge 30A It’s a great location right in the middle of the welcome party and ceremony locations and is perfect for exploring both sides of 30A. It’s also one of the more cost-effective lodging options in the area.
Typical weather: Highs: 60–70°F Evenings: 50–60°F It’s usually sunny and mild, but evenings near the water can get a little cool, so we recommend bringing a light sweater or jacket.
