About Seaside
The Birthplace of New Urbanism. Why was The Truman Show filmed here? And why did Newsweek call Seaside “the most influential resort community since Versailles”?
Seaside put New Urbanism on the map, but life here is surprisingly normal. There’s a market, post office, bookstore, record shop, and art galleries… mixed with cozy cafes, 4-star restaurants, and locally-owned boutiques. And with a weekly farmers’ market, live outoor concerts, and starlit movie nights, the fun never slows.
Once you first lay eyes on this Gulf-front paradise, you’ll see why Seaside is truly in a league of its own. With nine unique beach pavilions (each designed by a different architect!), cobblestone streets, adorable cottages, and walkable, timeless neighborhoods, this dreamy spot feels both classic and current.
WANDER HERE, DINE THERE.
Smack dab in the middle of it all, Seaside feels like the unofficial headquarters of 30A. Sandwiched between WaterColor and Seagrove, there’s no denying it’s a prime spot for dining, snacking, shopping, and laid-back fun. With its walkable streets, everything’s within flip-flop reach, so come on over and feel the buzz.
PICKET FENCES.
Founded in the 1980s, Seaside was the birthplace of New Urbanism, designed as a walkable, close-knit community, that encourages neighborly interaction. Its colorful homes, picket fences, and iconic front porches are now recognized worldwide, even making an appearance in the film The Truman Show.
CATCH THE BUZZ.
This isn’t your typical coastal vibe. Sure, it’s laid-back, where slowing down and soaking it all in is the rule of the day. But there’s something more here. The dazzling neighborhood vibrates with live music, art festivals, and local gatherings all year long. And with a cozy bookstore, a cool record store, and Airstream Row, an adorable food truck hub, It’s more than just a coastal scene- it’s a little slice of beachside cool. You dig?
SCENERY, SERENITY, OH SO NICE.
Seaside has snagged the title of “No. 1 Beach in the World for Families” from Travel & Leisure Magazine, and it’s easy to see why. But the praise for Seaside doesn’t stop with its small-town charm and world-class accommodations. Its natural beauty is the real hero here (those sunsets from the beach!). With native plants thriving throughout, upscale living and gorgeous landscapes live hand in hand. Lovely.

Arlon Jay Staggs Book Signing “Leta Pearl’s Love Biscuits”

Santa Rosa Beach author Arlon Jay Staggs, known for his writing for the New York Times’ “Modern Love” column, has three upcoming local book signings for the release of his debut novel, a Southern romcom inspired by his mother’s actual meet-cute romance, “Leta Pearl’s Love Biscuits” (Koehler, October 7, 2025). He will be signing books on the porch at Sundog Books Seaside on Oct 11 and 18, and will be the featured storyteller at the Emerald Coast Storytellers event on Oct 16, both of which are in Santa Rosa Beach. Arlon’s novel is an ode to Southern food and football, and was inspired by real-life events: like his protagonist Trudy, Arlon’s mom was a teacher who fell in love with the football coach who taught across the hall. Arlon’s background growing up as a gay son of a football coach in Alabama influenced themes in his novel such as how small-town social politics influence how we present ourselves, what we hide, and how we relate to others. A laugh-out-loud romp with a smidge of Southern magic, Leta Pearl’s Love Biscuits confirms that true love—like the best biscuits—takes some heat to rise. It’s 1982 in Bailey Springs, Alabama, where secrets aren’t just whispered—they’re baked right into the biscuits. Trudy has kept her head down since high school, when her unexpected pregnancy and marriage to star-quarterback Jimmie Beaumont scandalized the town. A few years later, after Jimmie’s tragic demise, folks still haven’t forgiven her and blame her for his death. Now engaged to a blue-blood politician, Haskel Moody, Trudy’s back in the spotlight—especially after taking a job teaching chemistry to save his campaign for mayor. As Trudy encounters old high-school ghosts, she also confronts Coach Shug Meechum, whose laid-back charm and infuriating grin incite more than just her frustrations. Meanwhile, Trudy’s mother, Leta Pearl, has been giving some chemistry lessons of her own—slipping her mysterious love-inducing biscuits to men in town to advance her own agenda. In Bailey Springs, football, tradition, and appearances often mean more than truth. So, when secret recipes are uncovered, and new desires collide with a long-buried tragedy, Trudy must decide if she’ll play by the rules or risk everything for the life she wants.
