Blue Mountain Beach Florida Real Estate
 Old Indian legend has it that Blue Mountain Beach got its name from the blue haze you would see at dawn on the hills. The blankets of the blue wildflower Lupine caused the haze, which to the Indians looked like blue mountains on the beach.
Blue Mountain Beach has remained a virtually unspoiled area on 30-A until this day. There is the mysterious Draper Lake, with its large, expansive body of water.. Then there are Alligator Lake, Big Red Fish Lake and Little Red Fish Lake, as well as two other smaller dune lakes in the area. You can see lily pads and marsh amongst the windswept oak and pine trees, but probably no alligators or big red fish as the names imply.
Blue Mountain Beach is also the home of a bicycle shop and 30-A s only health food store and cafe. There are just a few other commercial businesses in this area and the few permanent residents that live here, prefer it that way.
Blue Mountain Beach offers hiking and biking trails, coastal lakes, woodlands and more. Explore the spectacular view at the highest point on Florida's gulf coast at Blue Mountain Beach!

Florida attracts more out-of-state visitors to view wildlife than any other state. Visitors to Beaches of South Walton who want to explore the natural environment can do so in many unique and memorable ways. Here's a few:
TurtleWalk.
Although you may catch a glimpse of a turtle swimming near shore along the Florida coastline, your best bet is to participate in an organized turtle walk. All the walks require reservations and are led by guides or park rangers who ensure the turtles are not harassed or disturbed. There are no guarantees that you will see a turtle; however the program has a high success rate.
Off-Road Biking.
While several off-road biking trails developed by die-hard fans provide artificial vertical drops to those who crave a challenge, most off-road biking trails have little change in elevation. Horseback riders and hikers share many of these trails. Don't feel like walking through a no-vehicles-allowed natural area, a bike is the most practical way to get around.
Hit the Trail.
Beaches of South Walton's trail system provides miles upon miles of adventure, whether you're heading out on foot, bicycle or horseback. From the novice explorer to the expert trail trekker, the options seem limitless. Deer, turkey and migrating birds, as well as other wildlife, are abundant throughout these wilderness areas.
Nature Walks.
Visitors can get a birds-eye view by exploring the area's park systems and forests through organized nature walks and expeditions. At Topsail Hill State Preserve, sweeping views of the coastal dune lakes, Lake Campbell and Lake Morris, will take viewers' breath away.
