40 years of sunsets, stories, and gathering at @budandalleys.

Opened by Dave Rauschkolb and Scott Witcoski in Seaside’s early days, Bud & Alley’s was named after two beloved companions, Robert and Daryl’s dog, Bud, and Scott’s cat, Alley. From the very beginning, it was more than a restaurant, it was a place to come together.

For four decades, friends and families have climbed the stairs to toast the sunset, linger over dinner, and mark life’s milestones overlooking the best gulf view in town. A true pillar of our community, Bud & Alley’s has helped define the rhythm of SEASIDE®, one evening, one table, one unforgettable view at a time. #SeasideFL

Today we celebrate the women whose vision and lead

Today we celebrate the women whose vision and leadership continue to shape our world. We’re especially grateful for SEASIDE® co-founder Daryl Rose Davis, whose creative spirit and enduring dedication have helped shape the heart and character of this town. Her legacy lives on in the places we gather, the traditions we share, and the community we cherish. Happy #InternationalWomensDay!

In the beginning days of SEASIDE®, founders Rober

In the beginning days of SEASIDE®, founders Robert and Daryl Davis began to grow the farmers market with a handful of folding tables and handwritten signs. Old and new friends gathered each weekend to offer homegrown goods, handmade wares, and friendly conversation, inviting passersby to pause, wander, and discover the town. Long before it became a tradition, the market was a simple act of welcome, rooted in relationships and the belief that community is built one small interaction at a time.

Join us every Saturday in March from 9 AM to 1 PM and stroll through a vibrant selection of local vendors offering fresh produce, baked goods, and more. #SeasideFL #45YearsOfSeaside

Blue skies, white sand, and nowhere else to be. 🌊 #SeasideFL

From the archives. In the early days of SEASIDE®,

From the archives. In the early days of SEASIDE®, there was little more than sand, sketches, and a vision for a place where front porches mattered, neighbors knew one another, and life unfolded at a walkable pace. It took dreamers to imagine it and doers to bring it to life.

This month, we’re celebrating the founders who took a chance, the early believers who grew alongside it, and the thoughtful vision that shaped every street, green space, and gathering spot. What began as an idea has become a living, breathing community and is still guided by those same principles of connection, beauty, and intention.

The story of SEASIDE® isn’t just about how it started. It’s about how that original vision continues to shape each new season. #SeasideFL #45YearsOfSeaside

Since 1989, Modica Market has been part of the eve

Since 1989, Modica Market has been part of the everyday rhythm of SEASIDE®. Opened by Charles Modica Sr. in the town’s early days, it quickly became more than just a neighborhood market, it became a gathering place.

This quaint gourmet grocery grew into a SEASIDE® staple, known for fresh, homemade Southern specialties, carefully selected wines, craft beers, and shelves lined with thoughtful finds. Whether you’re picking up breakfast before a bike ride, lunch for the beach, or a bottle of wine for dinner on the porch, Modica has always been part of the plan.

Today, the legacy continues with Charles Modica Jr. and Carmel Modica, who carry on their father’s commitment to quality, hospitality, and genuine relationships. For generations of families, Modica Market has been a familiar face, a friendly hello, and a reminder that community is built one conversation at a time. 💙 #SeasideFL

A new addition to our beloved Post Office. 🇺🇸

Our community gathered this morning to dedicate our new flagpole, a detail imagined and thoughtfully brought to life by our team and the Davis family. To honor both our past and our future, the area was intentionally designed to reflect the original flagpole that once stood at the Post Office.

Our community is built on intention, and even the smallest additions carry meaning to us. This one rises with gratitude, for tradition, for service, and for the neighbors who continue to gather beneath it. #SeasideFL

Today, we remember Elizabeth Campbell, a gracious

Today, we remember Elizabeth Campbell, a gracious presence and an early contributor to the entrepreneurial spirit that helped shape our community.

In 1994, alongside her husband Bill, Elizabeth began McCaskill & Company with a small kiosk in Seaside. What started as a modest storefront grew over time, moving to new locations and becoming our area’s destination for fine jewelry. During their years in Seaside, they were part of a generation of Merchants who believed deeply in the vision of this special place, creating shops that invited gathering, conversation, and connection.

We are grateful for the season she shared with Seaside and for the lasting friendship that followed.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Bill, their family, and all who loved her.

As we welcome the Spring Break season in SEASIDE®

As we welcome the Spring Break season in SEASIDE®, we want to take a moment to celebrate what makes our community so special: our commitment to family values and the welcoming atmosphere we extend to all who visit. We are honored that so many families choose Seaside as their Spring Break destination, and we deeply appreciate that tradition.

We want to reiterate our stance on unaccompanied minors to maintain the family-friendly environment that makes Seaside such a cherished place. Seaside is designed for families to come together and create lasting memories, and we are committed to preserving that experience.

In preparation for the upcoming season, SEASIDE® hosted collaborative town hall sessions with neighboring communities, including Rosemary Beach, Alys Beach, WaterColor, and Old Seagrove. These discussions also included the SEASIDE® Town Council, the Walton County Sheriff’s Office, and representatives from short-term rental companies. Together, we established measures to ensure a safe and enjoyable atmosphere for all visitors and locals.

As part of these efforts, SEASIDE® will enforce a 7:00 PM CST curfew for unaccompanied minors (under 18) without parental supervision from March 1 through April 19. We kindly ask that parents and guardians accompany their children during their visit. While we understand the excitement of independence, Seaside is best experienced as a family—exploring our beautiful beaches, enjoying our locally owned shops and restaurants, and making memories that last a lifetime. #SeasideFL

In celebration of the month of love, we’re sharing the love stories that have shaped the heart of SEASIDE®. ❤️

SEASIDE® Founders, Robert and Daryl Rose Davis, are the love story that started it all. They married at the Tupelo Street Gazebo, with their loyal dachshunds, Bud and Guinness, right by their side. It was simple, personal, and full of meaning.

From the beginning, #SeasideFL has been a place where love shows up in real ways, between people, families, and the community they build together. Have a SEASIDE® love story to share? Send us a message for a chance to be featured. #45YearsOfSeaside
