Blue Mountain Beach

Blue Mountain Beach area
Blue Mountain Beach is a perspective unlike any other along 30-A, just a little more rustic and elevated with pristine dune lakes and long-range views from the higher elevations. Popular restaurants and shops have kept the flavor of the community intact even as it has grown.

Community Highlights

Blue Mountain Beach is the highest point on the Gulf of Mexico in the United States, offering spectacular views of the coastline. You'll find some of the area's newer developments including The Village of Blue Mountain Beach, Adagio, Redfish Village, and Sanctuary at Redfish among others.

Area History

Some people say the name came from a blue haze around the tall dunes; others credit the blue lupine wildflowers. Still others credit the view of the water from atop this village's namesake, mountain-like dunes. Legend has it that pirates gave Blue Mountain its name when they spotted the beach's tall dunes covered in Gulf Coast Lupine, a rare plant with blue flowers.
