The beach in Seaside. I haven't been to many other places on 30A, but whenever i leave, I feel like I've rested for months....:wub:

Grayton Beach, on a warm day when the water is clear aqua and green flag conditions, and the kids and grownups are just floating around in the water! :wub:
Also the walking trails at Watercolor....

A nice walk on Seagrove Beach to admire the beauty of the beaches and to get some exercise, followed by cooling off and relaxing in our pool. Love our noodles for floatation and just bobbling around in the water and having a nice conversation with my husband and daughter.
BTW these are the old kind of noodles that we can't find anymore that are thick enough to support the weight of my 270-pound hubby.

After being a local now for 3.5 years, I only recently discovered Deer Lake State Park. When I am there, I do not feel like I am on a beach on 30A in the Summer !--No aluminum beach tent set ups, and very few people. The most incredible dunes on 30A!

Grayton Beach, just before sunset, with my family [and a freshly made mojito.]

The best place to unwind is on the beach at sunset. With a glass of wine. (And the rest of the bottle near by!)
My vote for second is Fonville Press at Alys Beach when they have an Apres Beach -- and the kids are having fun playing on the mountain and the dog!

During the off season, the rooftop bar at Bud & Alley's is grayt at sunset. During season, I like some of the sparsely populated stretches of beach in Seagrove.

The beach in front of Topsail State Park, it's wonderfully remote and usually no one on or near it.

A certian back porch, overlooking a marshy creek :wub:
Grayton Beach, Draper Lake at sunset with loved ones and wine, of course 😀
At some point, when the waether and the bugs get better, I think the bay will be another favorite spot to unwind.

When we are down, we love to ride our bikes in the morning! The scenery is great, the breeze, the peace----It's what we look most forward to.
At the end of the day, our favorite thing to do is: enjoy a cocktail, watch the sunset. With the rhythmic rolling of the waves, the sun, the beauty...it is a spectacular way to unwind, forget your troubles, de-stress.

Wherever I happen to be. As SG says, if you can unwind in Wal-mart, you can unwind anywhere (paraphrasing). That has taught me a lot. One of my favorite places is putzing around in my kayak, somewhere around the second sand bar, until the thought of a 12 ft HammerHead or Tiger Shark comes to mind. JAWS ruined me. I just try to sit still with the thought of the big sharks swimming below, not much different than trying to be at peace in Wal-mart. It is a great test of mind over fear.

I love to sneak into the cafe early in the morning to work....in Grayton you can hear the birds chirping, the foot steps of early runners, people talking to their dogs as they walk them, a screen door closing, someone sweeping last nights sand from a porch, and towels flapping in the breeze. These are the sounds that help me unwind for the day.

ANYWHERE on the beach on 30-A, with a cold one. Star gazing and satellite spotting with friends and family. Listening to the sounds of the waves crashing on the shore. Doesn't get any better than that my friends!
