The lakes located along Scenic 30A’s 18-mile stretch of road are unique and special, not only to South Walton and Northwest Florida but they hold a very unique distinction. Classified as Coastal Dune Lakes because of their close proximity to our beautiful white dunes and the gulf, these local treasures are extremely rare and only exist in five other places world-wide. A beautiful, award-winning PBS documentary on the Coastal Dune Lakes was released earlier this year and has already been featured in several film festivals.

These ecological treasures located within Southern Walton County hold a special protection status and have specific county building guidelines within the Land Development Code and Comprehensive Plan. We’ve put together a list of helpful resources and guides so that when you’re ready build to or buy property located on the Coastal Dune Lakes, you’ll be prepared!
