Montgomery - all beaches

Wow, I had an incredible time at this beach for a whole week! Just be aware that the parking lot only fits about 10 vehicles, so it's best to arrive early to secure a spot. It's important not to park on the road or curve, as you'll likely get a ticket. During our six days at this beach access, we were fortunate enough to experience two absolutely amazing days with calm, yellow-flagged water that showcased the turquoise emerald green color the panhandle is famous for. We even got to watch dolphins play in the water while we relaxed in the waist-high pool created by the sandbar during high tide the night before. The beach is also serviced by friendly local beach ambassadors who ensure everyone follows the local ordinances and provides helpful information about the area. (Shoutout to the lady from OH and chilldude from Dallas for making our week even better!) If you're interested, you can purchase a package deal online that includes two lounge chairs and an umbrella for $70. Just keep in mind that glass containers and open fires without permits are not allowed, and oversized popup tailgate tents should be set up away from the water closer to the dunes. Overall, this beach perfectly captures the essence of the 30A experience and is a prime example of why the panhandle still has a special place in my heart even five years after leaving.

The Teddy's Tin Can Nachos were delicious and perfect for sharing! They had generous portions of chicken and a tasty cheese sauce. However, the Captain on Acid could have used a bit more acidity. On the other hand, the Red Rover had a perfect balance of flavors. The Pelicans Pina Rita was expertly crafted and enjoyable. Overall, the drinks and food were above average, and we were pleasantly surprised.

The whole beach was missing"

The view is absolutely stunning, there are fewer people around, and it's incredibly cozy here.
