30A Family-Friendly Activities
While most of your days will probably be spent playing on the beach, 30A offers many activities that are great for both adults and kids. Here are some of our favorites:
Go for a bike ride on County Highway 30A's 19-mile bike path, also known as Timpoochee Trail. This paved trail takes you through all of 30A's charming beach communities and features scenic views along the way.
For water fun that takes you beyond the breakers, you can book a dolphin cruise or go parasailing. Soaring high above the calm waters of 30A offers incredible views and gets certainly gets the heart pumping. If your spring breakers are on the younger side, they'll love the Pirate Cruise, while teens may find nighttime Glow Kayaking fun!
If you end up with less-than-ideal weather, places like Rainforest Black Light Golf in Miramar Beach or Uncle Buck's Fish Bowl and Grill in Destin are great rainy-day pastimes.
