Summer is quickly coming to an end, but on 30A the summer mood never goes away! Our perfect year-round temperatures ensure that you can enjoy all the fun, outdoor events and activities of summer whenever you choose to come for your vacation. So, whether you’re restricted to taking time off during the summer or have a flexible schedule that allows you to come enjoy the magnificent Emerald Coast waters whenever you choose, 30A will always be lively and enjoyable! To give you an idea of what your Exclusive 30A vacation could look like, we’ve created a sample itinerary comprised of some of the wonderful things that our guests love about the area and our luxury vacation rentals.
Monday
Morning
Check-in to your Exclusive 30A rentals with ease, thanks to our excellent customer service team. We will be eagerly anticipating your arrival with the keys, information about the home and surrounding area, and a stunning vacation rental prepared for your maximum enjoyment.
Afternoon
After checking in to your gorgeous luxury vacation rental, take the time to explore all its features and settle in. Our elite design team attempts to enhance each home to take full advantage of its unique characteristics to give our guests and homeowners the most enjoyable stay.
Night
Take your complimentary bicycles* to ride around and explore the area you are staying in. Each neighborhood throughout 30A is incredibly distinct, which is one of the reasons the area has earned its reputation as a premier vacation destination. Stop at one of the quaint restaurants along your ride to have dinner, while filling the serene night with conversation and laughter.
Tuesday
Morning
Rise out of bed with ease during your vacation mornings by making a quick trip to a casual 30A café that places emphasis on brewing exquisite coffee. Pair one of their classic espresso drinks with a delectable breakfast or lunch treat, and you’ll be as hooked to 2 Birds as we are!
Afternoon
Take your complimentary golf cart* to the nearest beach and check out the beautiful Gulf waters rolling in to the shore. Like the neighborhoods around 30A, each beach in the area is very unique, offering different views, activities, and surrounding parks or homes. Check out our last blog post for a guide to some of our favorite beaches to visit!
Night
There’s nothing better than a home cooked meal, and sometimes the joy of cooking with your loved ones can be even better than the meal itself. One of the things that sets renting a vacation rental apart from a hotel room is the fully stocked kitchen, which gives you the ability to stay inside and have that bonding experience on vacation. After you’ve gathered around one of our elegant dinner tables, kick your feet up and relax with your favorite book and a glass of wine on one of the tranquil porches.
Wednesday
Morning
Find an excellent, traditional American breakfast or lunch in either Destin or Panama City Beach at The Pancakery. Their consistently delicious meals are guaranteed to be the perfect start to your Wednesday morning.
Afternoon
Walk to your neighborhood pool (or if you’re lucky enough, take a dip in your private backyard pool), all of which are renowned for their world class facilities. The refreshing pool water is the perfect way to quickly cool off during those overwhelmingly hot days, and access is included with your reservation.
Night
Enjoy live music under the gorgeous 30A skies during the rest of the summer with a diverse collection of Summer Concert Series held throughout the 30A communities. The genre of music varies depending on the day, but the smile that they bring is a constant. Check out whichever acts that you’re interested in throughout the summer, including the Here Comes the Sun Concert Series (Rosemary Beach), Seaside Summer Concert Series, and Gulf Place’s Summer Concert Series.
Thursday
Morning
Combine your vacation exercise with adventure, empowerment, serenity & confidence with AM Sup Yoga. This yoga class is performed on a stand-up paddleboard, while floating through the calming Gulf waters. No need to worry about being a yoga or paddleboard master as the classes are open to people of all experience levels and begins with an intro of paddleboard basics to get you started. Book your spot in the class ahead of time, which is available on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.
Afternoon
There are some truly world class shopping facilities throughout the 30A area, with a range of different options depending on your taste, style, and budget. Find the hottest brands at the chic Silver Sands Premium Outlets or Grand Boulevard, or find novel items at the boutiques of Seaside, Rosemary, or Watercolor. No matter what you are searching for, we are sure that you will find the perfect gift or treasure to bring back from 30A.
Night
Spend a night on the town at any of the Emerald Coast’s happening night life scenes. Whether you prefer a livelier bar scene, a romantic wine bar, a relaxing jazz club, or something else entirely, there are a variety of possibilities for spending your nights. 30A is also near the cities of Pensacola and Panama City Beach, making a trip to either of these places possible if you want to explore a more urban location. Be sure to check back through some of our old social posts, and pay attention to the new ones that include the hashtag #RelaxationThursday to find some inspiration for places to spend your night out.
Friday

Sleep in on your Friday morning – you’ve earned it! Exclusive 30A luxury vacation rentals have some of the most comfortable beds available that feature plush mattresses, ultra-luxe Bella Notte bedding, and pillows so fluffy you’ll feel like you’re sleeping on a cloud.

Night
How could you come to the Gulf Coast and not indulge in the most renowned type of food in the area – the seafood? We’ve selected a few restaurants for you to visit that we’ve featured in our past #FoodieFriday posts, but with the area being such a hotbed for all delicious things coming from the sea, you can’t go wrong with wherever you end up eating.
Saturday
Morning
Spend your weekend mornings searching for some of the freshest produce that can be found along the Gulf Coast, at one of 30A’s popular Farmers’ Markets. Find some tasty treats to bring back for cooking at your luxury vacation rental at either the Seaside, Grand Boulevard, or Rosemary Beach venues.
Afternoon
Take in the Emerald waters along 30A by sea this afternoon with Captain Rex’s sailing adventure. Choose either the romantic option with a wine and cheese trip, or the adventurous option with a sail and dolphin watching trip. If you want to get in the water, our friends at Adventure 30A also offer activities that include an eco-friendly paddle board tour and snorkeling at the Grayton Beach State Park Sea Turtle Reef. No matter your choice, be sure to make the most of your last afternoon during your unforgettable 30A vacation.
Night
On your final night, spend time exploring all the 30a neighborhoods your vacation activities didn’t take you to. A whole vacation could be spent discovering all the unique aspects that each one offers! Experience the different styles, so that you can make an informed decision on the neighborhood you want to stay in during your next 30A vacation.
