This place is like a chipotle, you order your food at the counter and are given a number. They have excellent margaritas and the best "food" deal is to get the burrito bowl because it comes with chips and salsa!

Literally my favorite restaurant… you can grab a pitcher of beer or a cocktail. They have weeknight specials and a few other specials. I would check their Facebook page for specials. I recommend the blacked fish tacos (spicy) or the chicken fried chicken! Everything I have had here has been amazing. Also one of the best places for oysters!

Schooners is a beach bar! It is kind of far away from Good Vibes Only and the wait can be super long. In my opinion, they have the best grouper sandwich.

Neighborhoods

Scenic highway 30A is about a 15-20 minute drive from Good Vibes Only. There you can drive through the many beach towns for sightseeing. My favorite beach town on 30A is, Grayton Beach. Stop in at The Red Bar for an appetizer or beverage! Rosemary Beach is also a very pretty place and has a farmers market on Sundays.

Things to do other than the beach/kid friendly

This is a smaller zoo, you can get through the entire thing in about an hour but it is so fun! They have animal encounters, you purchase when you buy your tickets, where you are able to do numerous different things. They have a bird encounter, hold baby animals etc. we love feeding the giraffes!

Beach Access

St. Andrews is so beautiful! It is a state park so you have to purchase a pass. There are different hiking paths, a lot of beaches, you can swim to the jettys. It is a pretty place if you ever want to switch it up from the normal beach access near Good Vibes Only.

I love sequence! Whenever I vacation I still like to be healthy and burn off the sweets I eat. This is the cleanest gym on the beach! They offer day passes as well.

Consejos para la ciudad

Facilidad para moverse por la casa

Driving

This is a vacation town so traffic can be crazy at times.. horrible! If you leave the condos and take a right you will go through the neighborhood. If you keep going straight, you'll stop at a few stop signs, the last stop sign takes you to US Highway 98 or back beach road. Look at your maps and follow the suggested way but I have noticed sometimes it is much easier to go that way instead of turning right out of the complex to take Front Beach road. BACK BEACH DOES NOT ALLOW GOLF CARTS!!

Golf Cart Rental

If you fly, I do recommend renting a car or golf cart. Coastal Cars & Carts, Outlaw Rentals Golf Cart Rentals. Things are walking distance from Good Vibes Only but it's Florida, it gets HOT so definitely take that into consideration. Uber/Lift/Beach Boy Taxi's are also available.
Costumbres y cultura

Drinking is not allowed on the beach during MARCH

The city banned drinking alcohol on the beach during the month of March. You will get a fine just as an FYI!
