Tanika’s story mirrors the journeys of many who fall in love with 30A. After years of vacationing here with her husband Steve and their two adorable French Bulldogs, they couldn't resist the call of the Florida sun any longer. When an opportunity arose in the home-building industry for Steve, they made the life-changing move from Raleigh, North Carolina, to their beloved beach town. What was once a cherished vacation spot quickly became their permanent home, a true jackpot.

“The magic of living at the beach never fades,” says Tanika. “Even after twelve years, I still pinch myself. I’m incredibly lucky to call such a beautiful place home and to be surrounded by such happy, wonderful people.”

Embracing the relaxed pace of coastal living, Tanika and Steve savor every moment.  Whether they’re biking to Grayton Beach, taking their pups for a golf cart ride to Shunk Gulley for fresh oysters, or enjoying a round of golf at the Santa Rosa Golf & Beach Club, their days are filled with simple pleasures and stunning sunsets. The best part? Home is just minutes away from wherever their adventures take them.
