Beach Driving Permit

Unless things have changed since last year...you would go to the tax collectors office on Hwy 331 and present the following items: Proof of property ownership in Walton County, Proof of a registered, insured 4 Wheel Drive Vehicle and the money for the permit. It used to be $105 per year (i think)..but I am not sure now. Also the permits expire June 1st of each year...so if you get one now..you will have to get another one by June 1st. Don't hold me to every bit of this...but this is what was required last year when i renewed mine.

sorry the beach driving permits went away 6 weeks ago.no more will be issued and those that have are grandfathered in. if you forget to renew tough luck can't get back. i rushed in days before to get one. over the years the #'s will drop as people forget to renew or move or die.

So if you have a current permit you can still renew before the expiration date in June?

Yes - only one per household. Also, there must be a structure on the property.

Oh well, probably get all stuck anyway. Did they decide that there was too little sand and too many tricks or is this an effort to ultimately ban the activity.

From what I understand they are attempting to limit the number of vehicles on the beach.

The person who pushed the new rule as written to help reduce the number of autos on the beach also hopes to open a pay per use parking lot in Grayton, from what I understand.

So was it Jay Odom or Lloyd Blue behind this ordinance?

Who would that be? I'm still too new to all this "unwritten" knowledge about the people that "control" this county.

Does Odom still have any ownership interest in that empty acrerage north of 283/30a intersection? Had been planned for hotel/condo/retail complex by him at one time. Maybe turn it into a pay parking facility and run buses down to the public access.

My understanding is that it can't be completed until he is able to acquire the state land on the south end of it.

What is this place going to? thats the most rediculous thing i've heard yet! But if blue is behind it he'll get it!
