    Gluten-Free in SoWal? Seafood or Mexican spots?

    Hey All, This time next week we'll be in Seacrest - can't wait! :clap: It's been 3+ years since we've been down there and in that time, I have discovered I have a gluten allergy. (Not like get the Epi-pen, but it does effect my breathing somewhat, makes me very uncomfortable.) Gluten is...

    Mid-May. What to expect?

    beach wedding!

    I got married in Seaside last April (2005). Funny you should mention the hurricanes... Our original wedding date was Oct 8, 2004 but Hurricane Ivan came through just a couple weeks before. I live in VA, so planning from a distance is even more challenging. We had a small wedding, 6 family...

    Lifeguards, Flag System, 20/20

    I have to agree with Camp Creek Kid on this one. Lifeguards won't keep all people from drowning in rip currents. Period. Sure, they may help and they may save a few lives but it won't solve the problem entirely and believing that throwing a few lifeguards on the beach would all of a sudden...

    Just returned from 30-A and Destin - visitor review

    Wedding info and planners

    I just returned from being married in Seaside. If you want to get married there, you have no choice but to go through their wedding planners and pick the packages they have available. I had a very good experience with them, so it wasn't an issue but just a heads up on that. I used Amy...

    Just returned from 30-A and Destin - visitor review
