Beaches Area
St. Johns County / Ponte Vedra Beach and Sawgrass
Ponte Vedra Beach and Sawgrass are located in the northeast corner of St. Johns County, south of Jacksonville Beach along A1A. The community stretches along five miles of the Atlantic Ocean, aside carefully preserved wetlands. Many new apartment communities have been built in this area in the last few years. St. Johns County is the home of PGA TOUR and the ATP Association of Tennis Professionals headquarters. Annual tournaments attract people from around the world. There are more than 150 holes of golf and 60 tennis courts. Public beach access is limited.
Atlantic Beach is home to the beautiful Selva Marina Country Club community and Fleet Landing, a lakefront retirement community whose residents are primarily retired professionals from the military services and government, their spouses and widows.
Where Neptune and Atlantic beaches meet, referred to locals as "The Corner," are some of the most popular restaurants, including a brewery, and entertainment spots residents love to frequent. Along Atlantic Boulevard and A1A is an abundance of restaurants, strip malls, hotels and churches.
Neptune Beach shares many of the attributes of Atlantic Beach. Many of the oceanfront homes that line the beach are rented for summer visitors, causing the normal population of approximately 7,600 to more than double in summer months. Like Atlantic Beach, Neptune Beach is fully developed with some light rail services located mainly along A1A. Home prices vary again according to proximity to the ocean. Stretching from the ocean to the Intracoastal, its neighborhoods are diverse and are home to renters, families and retired couples.
Jacksonville Beach is the oldest and with a population of more than 20,000, the largest of Duval County beaches. It has a greater mix of residential, commercial, retail and industrial areas than other areas of the beaches. Much of the beaches commerical area is located on Third Street and while the bustling business environment adds to the atmosphere and economic well-being of the city, it offers a myriad of shopping, dining and entertainment options.
