Getting around

Should I plan to drive, bike, or walk to GET AROUND? You choose!

🔹DRIVING (for the explorer): It’s great to have a car so you can tool through 30A’s 16 idyllic coastal parks, beaches, & towns - AND it sure doesn’t hurt on misty days!

🔹BIKING (for the outdoorsman): Experience the lush beauty of 30A by bike if! Rent beach cruisers, electric bikes, kid seats or carriers - delivered to your door, or BYO-bike! NOTE: BOOK IN ADVANCE due to popularity!

🔹WALKING (for those going off the grid): If you are looking to destress and go off the grid, primarily cooking & spending time on the sand, cars/bikes aren’t as necessary

🔹ARRIVING CARLESS: If you decide to go car-less, we recommend you order your supplies in advance (PUBLIX delivers!). Even without a bike/car you can still walk to some great eateries & boutiques

✨WOW what a life!
