Commanders Shellfish Camp is about a 20 minute drive south. This is a no frills amazing sea food restaurant set on the intercoastal a block from the ocean. . Low country boil and oysters farmed onsite are just delish. Take a walk to the back to see the oyster beds and a shore line that swims with crabs at low tide.

Saint Augustine Beach and Vilano beach are the two closest ones to the house. Both are great. There is also Crescent Beach a little further south (not far from Commanders Shellfish Camp). You really cannot go wrong. Low tide offers salt water pools, high tide better for surfing. And a special thing unique to this coastline - the sand is so fine you can create something called a drip castle. Try it out!
