πŸ–οΈ Beach Days, Your Way

One of the best things about staying at The 30A Beach Cottage is having multiple public beach accesses close to the cottage. You're not limited to one entrance—choose the access that works best for your beach day.

Inlet Beach Florida with wide sugar-white sand and emerald Gulf water near The 30A Beach Cottage

Inlet Beach — sugar-white sand, emerald Gulf water and plenty of room for a perfect beach day.

🌊 South Walton Lakeshore — Our Favorite
Just down the road from the cottage, this smaller neighborhood public beach access is our go-to for a relaxed beach day. Walk, ride one of the complimentary beach cruisers, or drop off your crew and beach gear. There is no public vehicle parking at this access, which helps it maintain a more low-key feel.

πŸ–οΈ Inlet Beach Regional Access
Bringing more gear or want parking and facilities? Inlet Beach Regional Access on West Park Place Avenue offers parking, restrooms, an accessible boardwalk and seasonal lifeguards—a convenient option when you want the amenities of a larger beach access.

β˜€οΈ Even More Choices
Lupine, Wall Street and Winston Lane public beach accesses give you even more ways to reach the sugar-white sand and emerald Gulf waters of Inlet Beach.

Everything You Need for an Easy Beach Day

Your stay includes a FREE 6-seat street-legal LSV, 4 adult beach cruiser bikes, 2 paddleboards and beach gear, so you can spend less time worrying about transportation and hauling gear—and more time enjoying the Gulf.
