Unique Local Flavor • Dive or snorkel enthusiasts will love the nearby artificial reef called Grouper Reef—located just offshore at Inlet Beach. • The area draws from historic roots: Inlet Beach was once known as “Soldiers Beach,” a post-WWII community. 🍴 Dining & Shopping Highlights - Dining • For breakfast, local favorites include hearty Southern-style meals at the iconic The Donut Hole in Inlet Beach.  • For a special evening, dining options such as upscale Italian or fresh Gulf seafood await just a short drive away.
