Carefree Living on a Barrier Island! 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) Most people have no clue where Palm Valley, Florida is on the map! That is exactly how we like it! My house is on the barrier island south of Jacksonville Beach, and the only way that you would find my neighborhood is if you were taking the scenic drive down historic A1A to Saint ...Read More Augustine.

That is the great thing about living in Palm Valley, I can drive this stunning highway that hugs the coast to the greatest beaches in Jacksonville, or turn around and head towards Saint Augustine and Daytona Beach. Dotted along this drive are some of the greatest little food eateries you never heard of either. Locals know that there are hundreds of these beach bars, restaurants, and clubs, just off the beaten path.

The best areas in Palm Valley include Ponte Vedra Beach and the stunning golf courses. If you know anything golf-related, then the name Sawgrass rings a bell. This incredible golf course is seconds from my front door. Read Less
