Curious about which beach towns along 30A had buyers buzzing last year? If you own property in Seagrove Beach, Blue Mountain Beach, or Seacrest, congratulations—you’re in a prime spot! These beloved communities saw some of the most activity and interest, and it’s easy to see why.

#1 - Seagrove Beach

Holding strong in the top spot for years, Seagrove Beach remains a buyer favorite. This little slice of paradise was once dubbed "The Place Where Mother Nature Did Her Best" by founding developer CH McGee back in the 1920s and '30s. Today, Seagrove stretches from Seaside’s eastern border to just beyond 30A at Eastern Lake, neighboring Watersound Beach. Whether it’s the lush oaks, the variety of home styles, or the unbeatable access to the Gulf, Seagrove continues to charm buyers year after year.

#2 - Blue Mountain Beach

Not to be outdone, Blue Mountain Beach has proudly held onto the #2 spot for several years. Established in the 1940s, this beach town boasts the highest dune elevations along 30A—hence the “mountain” in the name (Floridians, we take what we can get!). Buyers are drawn to its mix of old-Florida charm, newer luxury homes, and a slightly quieter vibe compared to some of 30A’s busier areas. Whether you’re a full-time resident, second homeowner, or vacationer, Blue Mountain Beach checks all the boxes.

#3 - Seacrest Beach

For the second year in a row, Seacrest Beach rounds out the top three. Established in 1996, this community borders Rosemary Beach and Alys Beach. While much of eastern 30A falls under the Inlet Beach zip code, locals still recognize Seacrest as covering surrounding areas like Camp Creek Point, Seabreeze, and Sand Cliffs. (Side note: the nuances of 30A zip codes deserve a blog of their own—Read it HERE!)
