Grayton Beach outfall!
My family's favorite activity is riding bikes. When we arrive, my kids run to the back of our house to check on the bikes. We can ride around for hours just looking at all the different houses. Usually though we are riding them to some of the other family friendly activities. . .. the beach, the pool, the Seacrest fountains, the Alys Beach Mountain, the butterfly park in Rosemary, the train in Gigi's!
The beach. Fired Up, Sleeping Beauty at Seaside, Stinky Cheese Man at Water Color, the fountian at Seacrest, the play ground at Alys, the hot dog cart at Rosemary, a picnic at Grayton Beach state park, kayaking (for older kids), biking (carefully) along 30-A, the beach (again 
)
)
Any of the free concerts that are offered in the area. Kids love them as they can dance and play and adults like them b/c they are free and depending on the age of the kids the adults can relax!
it's amazing how much mileage you can get out of fonville hill @ aly's for smaller children..
For young kids, the love playing in the bowl shaped amphitheater in Seaside. They love to roll down the hill, run, throw ball ro frisbee, play tag. It's just a good environment and after you get all hot and sweaty you can get a snowball at FrostBites or walk over and take a swim at the beach.
Bike riding around Western Lake on the gravel trails of Watercolor through undulating hills is nice too. In the summer the bridge crossing the lake near where they rent out the boats there in Watercolor can offer a mighty pretty sunset.
Eastern and Western dune lakes where they buttress up against the gulf is a favorite place for younger kids who might be intimidtaed by the waves and/or prefer water with less salty content.
Looking for shells on the beach. Well, one of these might be 'the most'. But here in the Coast with the Most, it's too much to pick just one.

So so true Beach Bimmer. One of my favorite pictures of Doug, Kalie and myself was taken in Fired Up after we all finished our creations. It seems like all your worries just fly out the door when you are creating and spending time together! (Of course Kalie always brought 3 or 4 girls with her...so we had a big family!) Reminds me it's time to get in there and create something fun again!!!Gulf Place......I can never get enough of that place!!! Concerts, shopping, eats, wonderful place to walk the dog. Art! Art! and more Art! All in a very casual atmosphere!
Eden....lots of room for kids to run, then spread out on a blanket for a picnic and a nap!
There is so much here in SoWal!!!!
