Welcome to Grayton Beach

A coveted, creative beach town with hip vibes and eclectic style

 

Life in this artistic haven is inspired as much by the world-class art galleries and public sculptures as it is by the breathtaking sunrises and sparkling beauty of the Gulf coast. Spacious waterfront lots allow for new residents to design their perfect beach home from the ground up, while airy, West Indies-style designs set the stage for sunrise views and an iced coffee out on the balcony. Luxe, low-rise condos allow for an upscale lifestyle while maintaining the beauty of the coastline, and quaint bungalows offer the perfect setting for laid-back artist studios.

Perhaps it is this very connection to its true self that has made Grayton Beach one of the top coastal towns in the nation – but whether it's the free spirit ambiance or those silky white shorelines that attract the creative-minded, Grayton Beach inspires residents to tap into their inner artist and leave convention behind.
