Be spontaneous! If you can pack a bag quickly and head out at the last minute, you can make your destination Historic Route 30A. You may have planned ahead a little, but when you need a break – right now – you’ll have no problem finding something fun or relaxing to enjoy in the towns along the Gulf Coast. In your flurry of last-minute planning, don’t forget to book a last minute 30A rental with 30A Beach Girls!
Beaches
The beaches of 30A are available to anyone throughout the day – sun up to sun down. When you’re headed to Florida and the beautiful Gulf Coast, you’ll want to make sure to pack all of your beach gear and clothes. Lounge in the sun, take a walk on the beach, or splash in the waves of the Gulf. Get your adrenaline pumping with parasailing or wakeboarding or take lessons in paddleboarding or kayaking.
Snorkel and SCUBA Tours
You may need to book at least 24 hours in advance with most companies along 30A, but that’s enough time to make sure you grab a spot for the trip of a lifetime. Experience the water below the waves on a SCUBA or snorkeling tour. Get close to sea life like bottlenose dolphins, manatees, rays, sea turtles, a variety of fish species – even sharks can be seen. Ask about daytime or sunset tours, as well as gear rental for when you’ve built your confidence and want to strike out on your own. Make sure you’re SCUBA certified before going it alone.
Fishing
It’s one of the easiest and most fun activities for the family, as well as an activity available any time of day. Fishing has no age or skill requirement and can be a full-day or partial day activity. If you choose a charter, there are several experiences to choose from, including inshore, nearshore, and deep sea fishing. Some charter companies even take you to the flats, inlets, feeder creeks, bayous, and more for fly fishing. Companies also welcome young anglers and some offer lessons. Cast a line in search of lunch or dinner in the form of redfish, tarpon, speckled trout, flounder, snapper, and more. If you’re looking to spend some time by yourself, rent some gear and ask about the best fishing spots.
Private Catamaran Cruise
There are plenty of ways to spend time in and on the water during a trip to 30A. Enjoy a private cruise with just you and your loved ones or join new friends and soak up the sun and enjoy of a private catamaran cruise. Embark on a daytime or sunset sail. You might even spot pelicans or other sea birds flying overhead, or bottlenose dolphins or manatees out for a swim. Ask about champagne or dining options aboard the vessel.
Dune Lakes
Another place that’s available sun up to sun down to everyone is also a very special place. Florida is one of just two states in the U.S. and five total places around the world where coastal dunes are a natural geographic feature. The dune lakes that are formed are typically shallow, irregularly shaped permanent bodies of water that are brackish and dark-colored due a mix of saltwater and freshwater sources. Make one of the dune lakes of 30A a part of your last-minute plans, and rent a kayak, canoe, or paddleboard for some fun on the water, purchase a combo freshwater/saltwater fishing license, or just relax and enjoy the day on the shoreline.
Hiking
Make sure your hiking shoes made your last-minute packing list. Hikers will love the scenery and environment there is to experience along the trails of 30A. The area around the historic route is dotted with state parks and other hiking trails that offer hours of outdoor fun and exploration. Pack your sun gear, water, and trail snacks and head out to experience the land-based natural beauty of 30A. While you’re out in the wild, keep a lookout for local wildlife, including black bear, coyotes, deer, and osprey, just to name a few.
