Okaloosa Island was absolutely beautiful. I think having an Airbnb right on the beach made all the difference. This trip confirmed how much I love the Panhandle and 30A. I have stayed at the Eastern end of 30A and now staying at the Western end of 30A, I am ready to stay smack dab in the middle of 30A. Below is a compilation of my favorite photos from this trip. I will also link where we stayed and the most delicious taco place at the bottom.

That is a wrap on my photo recap of my Okaloosa Island Trip!
We stayed at the Waterscape Rentals and ate at Rockin’ Tacos three times.
I highly recommend a beach trip where the pool area is steps away.
