St. Joe Beach: the quiet stretch locals choose
St. Joe Beach runs along Highway 98 between Mexico Beach and WindMark Beach, and most of its shoreline is dedicated public beach access — which has historically made it the beach locals pick over the more tourist-heavy stretches nearby. This is quiet, residential beach-access living, not a resort town or a working waterfront.
