The Best 4 Day Itinerary to Exploring 30A

rosemary beach

In recent years, Florida’s 30A has received a lot of attention. Nestled between Destin and Panama City Beach, off County Highway 30, 30A is not city itself, but refers to the collection of small, colorful beach towns in the Florida panhandle. The scenic 25-mile stretch, marked by white sand beaches and blue waters, makes it the perfect destination for a relaxing beach getaway.

Rosemary Beach

This itinerary covers the best of what 30A has to offer — beaches, shopping, dining and unanimously all of our favorite activity — a beach bonfire! While our 4 day, 3 night trip gave us a good taste of 30A, I would highly recommend 5-7 days to really enjoy the area.
