- Destin, Grayton Beach, WaterColor, Seaside, Seagrove, Alys, Rosemary & the Timpoochie Trail. For those of you who prefer a beach vacation to the mountains, Florida's Emerald Coast has a little gem called 30a, between Destin & Panama City, waiting for you to discover. You will have a short 45 minute drive to the big cities for dining and entertainment, but escape the hustle & bustle to relax along the beautiful white beaches with crystal blue waters, elegant communities, and breathtaking community parks. So decompress, and come along with Moose Anderson, as I introduce you to this area, and all it has to offer. You will make many return trips as one is not enough.
Thank ya, Moose! I enjoyed it.
Thanks Ben for the encouragement. I’m hoping to get better with each film. Still trying to find a way to not get flamed by people for the music! It happens with every film, but I’m pretty sure people would like the silence between narration worse. 🙂 Your compliment is appreciated. I absolutely love 30a, and look forward to returning. The beaches are amazing, but the houses & parks are amazing in their own rights.
Amen
Would love you to show the menu at these locations.. Thank you for sharing
Hi Debra! They have the menus online on their websites. I have tried filming them, like some UA-camrs, but I felt the quality was just not as good as viewing them online. I also don’t like feeling rushed reading them, where as online, it is a more leisurely process. I’ve tried filming the food too, but half the time, I’m half a plate in before I think about it! 😂 I also have to learn how to make a movie under 3 hours! That would allow for more menus & food. I just feel like I’m playing the UA-cam algorithm and that feels like playing the money game. ☹ To be honest though, I’m not sure you could go wrong at any place to eat on the gulf. Even a hole in the wall can be a seafood haven!
Trying to buy a condo directly across the street from Pompano Joes. Love the entire area.
That would be a fantastic location. Pompano Joes has my favorite food & such an awesome layout. From the beach bar to the restaurant itself. The Gumbo is fantastic. Island chicken wings are phenomenal. Top it off with the garlic crusted grouper and lobster for desert! Then hobble home and pass out! 🤣 Enjoy tomahawk…I may see you there soon!
Grayton beach is by far my favorite place in the area. Lived in the Destin/Miramar beach area since the 80's. Ever since they built that monstrosity that shall not be named across from Maguires blocking the gulf and pass view in Destin it, has gone down hill.
That is quite a "complex"! I love Maguires. I gain weight every time I vacation there! 🤣
I would love more narration
Yes I am learning. I hate my voice, but I have been getting more requests for narration and history or whatever. If you knew me, you would know I never shut up!!!! 🤣 I will be talking more moving forward, which will help with not having to listen to the "royalty free" music that is less than desirable and almost impossible to find. Thanks for the encouragement Bec. This helps. I was afraid I talked too much in my first Yellowstone movie, so I backed off the next few years. Moving forward I promise to not talk my head off, but for sure, narrate more.
Are there public restrooms in the beach pavilion
There are at the public access Pavillion but not the private ones. I am older and have an increased need? 😂 Never had a problem.
Why is Seaside overrun with teenagers? It didn't used to be. Have you been to the Old Florida Fish House later in the evening? It's a nightclub. Everything closes by 10pm (usually 9:30pm) because the town doesn't want the late night parties. I've seen the problems 30a has a Spring Break now. If you want that kind of vacation, go to Panama City just up the road. The bars are open all night. Please leave Seaside and 30a for the families.
One of the best things about this part of the panhandle is that you have the options. (1) Want to party and spring break? Go to Panama City Beach. (2) Have older kids that want water slides, amusement parks, mini golf? Go to Destin. (3) Have young kids or adults looking for nice peaceful beaches and towns? Go to 30a.
Please do not make everything a party.
Seaside has just become too crowded with too many kids. Seagrove is more chill and laid back. Seaside has no where to expand is what I think is the problem. It’s surrounded by WaterColor and Seagrove. Kids just cram into the food trucks late afternoon & evenings/nights. I did the same when I was young. I don’t blame them. I just don’t want to be in it, so I prefer to stay outside of the hub, and stay in Seagrove.
@@MooseAndersonProductions I agree. We've been staying in Seagrove the last few years. If you are lucky, you can get a place that includes a golf cart. If not you can rent one for about $700 a week. There's specific free golf cart parking at either end of Quincy Circle. It's preferrable to parking a car. Of course now seaside has lots of golf carts, so I imagine the town will have to take measures to stop them. Rosemary Beach doesn't allow golf carts as an example
Those golf carts look great! Easy to get around in and with the towns so close together, they would be perfect. I didn’t know they were not allowed in Rosemary which is crazy, because they allow cars! I’m not sure why no golf carts. They sure won’t ban bikes. 😂 I wish 30a was still a sleepy little secret, but with jerks like Moose Anderson posting videos on UA-cam, the whole world will know! 🤣 I lived in Sarasota for 4 years and was a Siesta Key freak! I honestly think 30a is every bit as white & beautiful. The whole area & vibe are perfect. Sarasota is big really, like Destin or Panama City. 30a is perfect and about the crowded Seaside, I shouldn’t complain, honestly. Try any National Park! The crowds are just nuts anymore…everywhere one goes. And our little of secret of 30a, is out of the bag! 😭@@deshipe
@@MooseAndersonProductionsHi! I really enjoyed your video. We live in NC and go to Hilton Head, SC. Grew up going to the Destin area though. We wanted our college age boys to see the white sandy beaches of the gulf for once. Which do you think our boys would enjoy more, Destin or Seaside to walk around in the afternoon/evening? (they are 19 & 20). They may actually like Seaside after reading this thread of comments!
They would love Seaside. Great place for nighttime mingling. Wholesome mingling. Destin is a big city with lots of restaurants and attractions like go carts and water parks. Seaside has a better beach, where they will spend the day, bikes and trails for when they are bored with the beach, and after dinner & shopping in Destin (30 minutes away), you can unwind at the condo in Seaside, while they mingle around the food airstream row trailers in town at night…the hang out spot. It is honestly a great hotspot for teens, but you guys will love the charm of the smaller towns on 30a yourselves. Very beautiful & relaxing. I lived in Sarasota for 4 years and was a Siesta Key Snob! 🤣 I would honestly say, the beaches of 30a are every bit as white & soft. Beautiful sand & water.@@leighallisonlove7541
