If you’re looking for the “The Real Florida”, Grayton Beach is the ideal place for you. Located near the town of Grayton Beach on County Road 30A south of U.S. 98, you’ll find award-winning beaches, campgrounds, and cabins here along with vacation fun for the whole family!

Grayton Beach State Park has been consistently ranked as one of the most beautiful beaches in the whole county, where you can take long walks along the pristine sugar-white sand beaches of the Gulf of Mexico and leave nothing but footprints! Visitors can go swimming, sunbathing, and surf fishing, or paddle a canoe or kayak across scenic Western Lake.

There is a 4-1/2 mile interpretive hiking and biking trail, and for less adventurous hikers, there is a 1-mile scenic nature trail, where you’ll enjoy views of scrub oaks, magnolias and pine flat woods. Look for the entrance to the trail just across from the park entrance on Highway 30-A.
