Local Attractions

30A

Recreation
0 blocks away
The 19-mile Scenic Highway 30-A hugs the coastline along the Gulf of Mexico in South Walton, Florida. Known for its sugar-white sand beaches, turquoise water, rare coastal dune lakes, and welcoming beach neighborhoods, 30-A is an escape from ordinary. Along with its natural diversity, 30-A is also home to a wealth of cultural attractions and events, including a number of nationally recognized festivals celebrating Art, Film, Culinary, and Songwriters, as well as being home to repertory theatre, philharmonic performances, more than 20 local art galleries. The natural wonders, social grace, and brimming culture of 30-A may all be experienced at St. Joe Club & Resorts, where a new experience is just a bike ride away.

Origins Golf Course

Recreation
15 minutes away
The Davis Love, III-designed Origins course is comprised of six regulation holes playing between 1,600 and 1,800 yards. Because of its unique design, the layout can also be played as a six-hole par three course. Its design is consistent with the Scottish origins of the game in which six, nine, and ten or twelve-hole courses were commonplace. It is golf made simple and fun, again, yet challenging enough to retain the interest of avid players.
