Can someone tell me who to contact about renting chairs and umbrellas for the beach at the Santa Clara access?  We are coming the later part of June.

As of May 28, 2021, the beach access was still closed but it looked like they were trying.

They said at the June 1 TDC meeting that plans were to open it by the end of the week.

The access is re-opened - thanks to Visit South Walton and our bed tax payers and collectors.
