- first name, last name
Inlet Beach feels like a deep breath.
Located at the eastern edge of 30A, it blends the unspoiled charm of “Old Florida” with quiet luxury and opportunity for growth.
Its beaches are among the widest and most open along 30A—often with fewer crowds, more natural dunes, and a calm, uncrowded shoreline.
What sets Inlet Beach apart is space. Compared to other 30A communities, lot sizes tend to be larger, views more open, and new development more flexible—making it a favorite for those who want to build, expand, or invest for the long-term.
It also has the largest public beach access in Walton County, with ample parking, restroom facilities, and a gradual, family-friendly entry into the water.
While it's not packed with shops and restaurants, Inlet Beach offers quick access to the upscale town centers of Rosemary Beach and 30Avenue just a few blocks away.
For investors, it offers strong STR demand without the density or noise. For owners, it offers room to breathe and grow into your dream coastal property.
Inlet Beach is where quiet luxury meets big potential—and it’s only getting better.
