Inlet Beach Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals
Inlet Beach
is located along scenic Highway 30-A in the northwest region of the Gulf Coast of Florida. This is 18 miles of beautiful coast highway in Walton County where you’ll see sparkling white sand beaches, sand dunes, virgin pine forest and pristine lakes and streams. Along the way are several quaint beachside communities, including Inlet Beach. All are known for their relaxed, upscale lifestyle. Inlet Beach was first developed in 1920, but got a big boost in 1947 when war veterans were given first choice in a lottery to build in the area; thus it was referred to as “Soldiers Beach.” With its secluded spot on the Gulf of Mexico, and close proximity to Lake Powell, Inlet Beach offers some of the best swimming, sunning, beachcombing, fishing, boating and other water sports. Golf lovers will want to test their skills at one of the championship, dunescape courses located near Inlet Beach. There are also lots of shops, restaurants, hotels and other vacation rentals in the region; something for everyone’s taste and budget. Some of the other picturesque towns located along 30-A include Blue Mountain Beach, Carillon Beach, Grayton Beach and Seaside.
The Northwest Florida Panhandle , in the region known as the "Emerald Coast," enjoys warm temperatures year round. The state of Florida, as a whole, is among the wettest states in the U.S., receiving at least 50 inches of rain annually, and the Panhandle region has the most rain of anyplace in the state. However, many of these showers and thunderstorms pass quickly and the sunshine prevails. Tropical winds from the south, along with the Gulf and abundant rain, create hot, humid conditions May through September. The rest of the year is much more comfortable, with mild days and cool nights, less humidity and less rain. Hurricane season officially lasts August through October, but most of these storms blow into the Atlantic and miss Florida entirely. In the case when one does reach shore, ample warning time is generally given for these storms.
