All about Seacrest

Situated in the Florida Panhandle, Seacrest is a low-key coastal community in South Walton whose lack of commercial development makes it easy to hear the sound of the waves and the rustling of the wind through the palm trees. The elevated boardwalk that rests on top of the grassy sand dunes is an ideal spot to take in panoramic views of the aquamarine waters of the Gulf of Mexico and the white-sand Seacrest Beach.

Many of the residences in town are modeled after Old Charleston architecture. A short distance from the beach, you’ll find a small commercial center called the Village of South Walton, where a variety of restaurants will satisfy a range of tastes and where local shops sell beachwear, jewelry, and souvenirs. Bike rentals are easy to come by, and you can follow the Timpoochee Trail up and down the coast.

What are the top things to do in Seacrest?

Seacrest Beach

With its quiet atmosphere and unmarked nature trails, Seacrest Beach attracts birdwatchers, beach dwellers, hikers, and photographers alike. Since the beach is home to the tallest sand dunes in the area, its access points were constructed over the dunes, making it easy to survey the shore from on high, catching the sunset or spotting dolphins in the distance.

Timpoochee Trail

Timpoochee Trail, a 19-mile paved bike path along the coast, connects several coastal communities, Seacrest included. Rent a bike in the village and set out for an excursion. You may find yourself exploring rare coastal dune lakes that are home to both saltwater and freshwater creatures, or stopping at one of the three state parks along the route to picnic, fish, or beachcomb. If you’re driving to one of the trail access points you’ll find parking at the beaches and state parks.

Camp Creek Lake

Occurring in only a handful of places around the world, South Walton’s coastal dune lakes are a rare phenomena that take tens of thousands of years to form. The 10,000-year-old Camp Creek Lake, found right off Seacrest Beach, is one the most beautiful. The lake’s calm waters are only five feet deep, making it ideal for swimming, paddleboarding, or kayaking.
