Welcome to WaterColor
In the panhandle of Florida along the famed Emerald Coast, lies WaterColor, a unique 499-acre resort and residential community master-planned and developed by the St. Joe Company. You will revel in the stunning beauty, from the soft sugar-white sand, the wild dunes topped with sea oats, and the sparkling emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico, to Western Lake, one of the largest rare coastal dune lakes.
Every detail of the buildings, pathways, and parks has been carefully planned and executed to provide the most harmonious integration of people and nature.
The homes have a distinctly Southern flavor with overhanging eaves, exposed rafter tails, wood siding and metal roofs. They are oriented towards the quiet streets, and have welcoming shaded front porches. Landscaping is with plants native to the area which enhances the overall aesthetics.
This relaxed family-friendly community offers fine dining and unique neighborhood shops. In addition to the many parks and green spaces, there is a Camp WaterColor for children. Kayaking and canoeing is available on Western Lake, and there is a fitness center, tennis center, and golfing opportunities. The gulf front Beach Club is popular with the residents, and there are several swimming pools, too. You or guests might want to try out the WaterColor Inn, an award winning gulf front boutique hotel.
WaterColor has wooded nature trails for walking or bicycling, or you can walk or bike the 19 mile long Timpoochee Trail Bike Path which stretches the length of the Scenic Hwy. 30-A. Your participation is also invited in the many local artistic and cultural activities throughout the year in WaterColor, or in some of the other neighboring communities.
