30A is a term used to refer to a road and an area in South Walton County, Florida. The name 30A comes from the actual local road in South Walton County, known as County Road 30A, which spans roughly 20 miles along the Florida Panhandle. The area is often referred to as the Emerald Coast, Scenic 30A, and the worlds most beautiful beaches. It is a popular vacation destination with a much calmer approach to beach life, more families than college kids, and more local shops with cult-like followings than chains.
