Highway 98 runs directly through Miramar Beach, connecting you to Destin (10 miles west) and Panama City Beach (45 miles east). This scenic coastal route hugs the shoreline, offering stunning Gulf views but can get congested during peak season. Interstate 10 provides the fastest east-west route about 45 miles north, connecting to Highway 85 south for a straighter shot to the coast.
RV drivers should note that Highway 98 includes several narrow bridges and tight turns, particularly around Destin. The Mid-Bay Bridge (Highway 20) offers an alternative route with better RV clearance and less traffic. Fuel up in Crestview or DeFuniak Springs before heading south -- coastal gas prices run significantly higher.
The closest major supply stop is the Walmart Supercenter in Destin, about 15 minutes west on Highway 98. Camping World in Pensacola (45 miles west) handles RV parts and service. Stock up on groceries before arriving, as local markets cater to resort guests with premium pricing. The area's popularity means heavy traffic from March through August, so plan extra travel time during peak season.

Explore the Miramar Beach Area
Both RV parks here offer premium amenities, but if you're choosing based on beach access, prioritize proximity to public beach entrances since private beach access isn't guaranteed. The beaches here charge for parking during peak season, so factor that into your budget.
Boondockers won't find free camping options directly in Miramar Beach, but Blackwater River State Park (45 minutes north) offers primitive sites at budget rates. For day trips, focus on early morning beach walks before the crowds arrive. The sand stays cooler, and you'll have better photo opportunities.
Dining highlights include The Back Porch for casual seafood with beach views and Boshamps Seafood & Oyster House for upscale Gulf-to-table cuisine. Both welcome families and offer outdoor seating. For groceries, drive to the Publix in Destin rather than paying resort prices at local markets.
Dogs are welcome on the beach during certain hours (typically before 9 AM and after 5 PM during summer), but leash laws are strictly enforced. The white sand can get scorching hot, so bring booties for your pet's paws.
