30A Travel Guide
Like many, Scenic Highway 30A is one of my favorite places on earth, but I believe the secret to truly enjoying it like an insider is visiting between the October - April months. Bypass the biting yellow flys, heaps of June grass, humidity and the crowds. If you are planning your 30A coastal getaway during “off season”, here are a few of my personal favs in town to stop into. <3
