Walton County suspends beach access for unsupervised minor visitors at Santa Rosa Beach during spring break, effective 7pm, citing safety concerns.

Walton County Sheriff's Office (WCSO) suspends beach access from County Road 283 to Bay County line from 7pm during spring break due to a surge in teenage visitors and aims to prevent large gatherings of unaccompanied minors at Santa Rosa Beach. The suspension is in place until further notice and trespassing on private property for beach access will lead to charges. Restrictions don't apply to families with adult supervision.
