Each and every year in SoWal we have a bigly fun time reading entries and picking winners from our annual "You're So SoWal" contest.

Please Post in this thread below ...
Or Post on the story page at 2016 "You're So SoWal If..." | SoWal.com
Or email to so@SoWal.com

Each year is unique with lots of South Walton beach lovers sending in entries by email, comment form, forum, and social media. Heck, we even got one taped to our windshield ... Thanks to all who enter! We want to hear from you - whether you are a first timer or if you are a veteran and enter each and every year.

What does it mean to be so in love with South Walton Beaches? What's unique about South Walton? What's quirky? What's beautiful? What's funny? How about that traffic?!? Why is that sign on the beach!? Where's my next Margarita at?!

Last year's contest got a flood of responses, with hundreds of entries from locals and visitors. The SoWal Staff and some discerning local judges helped us narrow down the best entries.

Our 2015 Overall Winner

If you've stayed on the beach overnight hoping for a turtle nest to hatch.
Or if you've stayed on the beach overnight for other reasons...:p

You walk so much on 30a, that when you are back home in a Midwest mall, you forget when passing someone and say, "passing on your left!"

You know your a local when you mention on SoWal that you drive on the opposite side of the road to avoid the bumps on Oyster Lake Bridge and the county fixes them a couple of weeks later! Yea!
