History

Inlet Beach Florida provides quaint and picturesque living on the Emerald Coast.

Inlet Beach is the easternmost beach community in South Walton County, located where scenic 30A merges with the Emerald Coast Parkway (HWY 98).  Named after Phillips Inlet at the border of South Walton and Bay Counties, this community is quaint and feels untouched by the world.

When World War II veterans were offered first choice in a land lottery, they jumped at it. As a result, Inlet Beach Florida was originally referred to as “Soldiers Beach.”

Camp Helen State Park and Lake Powell grace Inlet Beach Florida.  Lake Powell is the largest coastal dune lake in Florida and was declared a “Pristine Florida Waterway.”
