Walton County · Highway 30A · Florida
What "Santa Clara" actually is
Santa Clara isn't its own beach town. It's the Santa Clara Regional Beach Access (RBA #17), one of Walton County's official public beach access points on 30A. It sits at 3468 E Scenic Hwy 30A in the Seagrove Beach area of Santa Rosa Beach. It's a clean, low-key place to get to the Gulf — a neighborhood-style access with real parking and seasonal lifeguards, not a resort destination.
