Welcome to Rosemary Beach
Rosemary Beach is a stunning seaside town with every amenity and activity people need for a fulfilling, active life.
Rosemary Beach is equipped with everything you could need. Boardwalks connect neighborhoods, the town center, and other popular spots, making the town walkable or bikeable. Unique boutiques, restaurants, sports courts, and public areas dot the roads, inviting people to come out in the beautiful Florida weather.
Sandy beaches line the Gulf of Mexico, perfect for laying out or taking a kayak out on the water. Homes are spacious and traditional with eye-catching architectural details without looking overly ornate. Most designs follow European colonial architecture — look for elevated masonry, a signature feature that props up certain homes’ outdoor spaces. The giant wraparound porches on many of them highlight the town’s Southern roots.
