Exploring the Beaches, Dune Lakes, and State Parks of South Walton

Dune Lakes

The dune lakes of South Walton are true gems. These rare bodies of freshwater are formed when rainwater pools behind sand dunes created by wind blowing across the coastline. The area surrounding these lakes is home to unique wildlife such as alligators, bald eagles, shorebirds, butterflies, and more! Visitors will also find plenty of nature trails perfect for an afternoon hike or bike ride.

State Parks

South Walton also offers several state parks that provide visitors with access to miles of hiking trails and swimming spots. Grayton Beach State Park is particularly popular among visitors due to its expansive shoreline and rolling hills lined with pine trees—a landscape unlike any other in Florida! Other state parks worth visiting include Deer Lake State Park with its beautiful cypress swamp boardwalk trail and Eden Gardens State Park which offers visitors scenic views from its observation tower.
