Seaside announced it will continue its curfew policy by enforcing a 7 p.m. restriction for unaccompanied minors from June 28 through July 4.

• The measure extends the same curfew policy implemented during Spring Break earlier this year, when Seaside required parental supervision for minors after 7 p.m. from March 1 through April 25.

“To ensure the safety and enjoyment of all our guests, SEASIDE® will enforce a 7:00 PM CST curfew for unaccompanied minors, 18 and under, without parental supervision, during the Fourth of July holiday week,” community officials stated.

This marks the latest safety measure following the Spring Break curfew, which was the second consecutive year of such enforcement. Last year, the Walton County Sheriff’s Office had taken additional steps by suspending beach access for large crowds and unaccompanied teens during the peak Spring Break period from April 1 through April 5.

“We appreciate your cooperation in maintaining the values that make Seaside a beloved tradition for families near and far,” the announcement noted. “Thank you for helping us foster a safe, welcoming environment for all, and we look forward to another wonderful holiday in SEASIDE®.”
