Living in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida

For more information go to
Located along the panhandle in the region known as the Emerald Coast, Santa Rosa Beach is one of 16 separate seaside neighborhoods along a 26-mile stretch in South Walton County.
It is famous for its sugar sand beaches and turquoise surf, the color being a happy result of how the shallow waters of the Gulf of Mexico reflect off the white sand.
The shoreline of Santa Rosa Beach extends between Four Mile Village to Inlet Beach, just before the Walton and Bay County lines. The Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport is in close proximity.
The community is a travel magazine favorite, frequently showing up on lists of top beaches and preferred family friendly destinations. Life revolves around the water with such activities as fishing, kayaking and standup paddleboarding, but the area also has an active arts and dining scene with galleries, cafes and numerous festivals. It’s not surprising Santa Rosa visitors have a repeat rate of 94 percent. Outdoor life on the Gulf is vibrant. Topsail Hill Preserve State Park has more than three miles of white sand beaches and, famously, sand dunes nearly 25 feet high. Off-road bicyclists and hikers head to Point Washington State Park, a 15,000-acre preserve. It’s a setting unlikely to change. Forty percent of the South Walton area is state-owned and protected from development.

Hard Bottom Reef at Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park
One of the most popular seaside destinations in Naples, the mile-long stretch of white sugar sand at Delnor-Wiggins has been rated one of the best beaches in the nation. The 166-acre park is a tropical paradise for beach lovers, boaters and divers. The beach is a popular spot to sunbathe, swim, beachcomb, snorkel and picnic.
At the beach along Wiggins Pass, where swimming is not allowed, fishing is a popular activity.
Boaters can launch their vessels into Water Turkey Bay and travel to the Gulf or up the Cocohatchee River for both saltwater and freshwater fishing.
Kayakers can enjoy paddling through estuaries and scuba divers can explore the hard bottom reef in the Gulf.
At the north end of the island, a tower gives visitors a bird's-eye view of Wiggins Pass and the surrounding coastal habitat.
The park's concession offers kayak tours, as well as beach chair, umbrella, paddleboard, canoe and kayak rentals. For tour reservations and rentals of bicycles, canoes and kayaks, call (239) 431-0958

When walking into the backyard of your seaside condo, the only things you would hope to find are the waves lapping at the shore, or a sunset over the ocean.
However, one Florida homeowner was shocked to find a nine foot bull shark swimming right past his back door.
This incredible video captured the moment the extremely dangerous predator prowled past the property at the north end of Hickory Island, in Bonita Springs.
This is the moment a nine foot long bull shark, considered among the deadliest in the world, was captured swimming past a condo back yard on Hikcory Island in Florida

The beast can be seen just under the the water, with its distinctive pectoral fin breaking the surface.
Residents in Bonita Springs told NBC-2 that sharks began swimming up to their condos about a week ago, and have been spotted several times since.
They say fishermen have been chumming the water - throwing in bait - which has been luring the animals back.
