A vibrant community blends coastal charm, colorful shops and casual dining.

In Seaside, pastel beach houses and framed in New Urbanist architecture create the perfect beach backdrop. From the iconic Seaside Post Office to Airstream Row, everything is infused with coastal charm, and thoughtfully designed pathways make it a wanderer’s paradise. Claim your piece of paradise in a serene beach home or vacation-perfect condo in the middle of it all. Grab your authentic Seaside gear at The Seaside Style and show off your love for Bud the dachshund.

Fuel up for a day of sun-soaked fun with a cup of organic Amavida Coffee. And when you’re ready for the coolest lunch around, head down to Airstream Row. From grilled cheese at The Meltdown On 30A to pulled pork at Barefoot BBQ, these vintage trailers turned food trucks serve some of the best bites in South Walton. For a casual dinner, snag a table at Bud & Alley’s for great food and breathtaking sunset views. Still hungry for Southern cooking? Reserve a seat at Great Southern Café for local produce and fresh-caught seafood. Enjoy the famous Grits á Ya Ya on the porch for a picture-perfect evening.

In Seaside, you can peruse local art galleries, window shop at boutiques, and flip through books and records all in one neighborhood. Kick off your shopping spree at Ophelia with designer finds for a lazy beach day or night on the town. Stop by Sundog Books and pick a beach read from the large selection of local favorites. If you’re a vinyl lover, head upstairs to Central Square Records to flip through the crates. Stock the pantry with gourmet eats, fresh-to-go meals and imports at Modica Market.

For laid-back evening fun, sip signature cocktails at Bud & Alley’s Roof Deck Bar or grab a local brew at The C-Bar... there’s after-dark ambience to spare.

With its postcard-perfect looks, it’s no wonder Seaside boasts two world-class art galleries. Make your way to Red Bird Gallery for everything from hand-blown glass to clay masterpieces.
