Wireless Internet Access?

[OK]

My family is spending 8 days in Grayton Beach and we are in great need of a place to go in the area that has wireless Internet access. Any suggestions? I called the local Starbucks and they said it was available for $3/hour. I had assumed there would be several places where it would be free or is this the norm? Thanks.

Here is a link to the Wi-Fi spots in FLA, hope this helps.

There are a lot of free access points up and down 30A. There have been several threads on the forum on wireless access. Do a search on "internet" or "wireless" and you should find the old threads.

A few that come to mind...

Beach Java in Seagrove
Courtyard Wine& Cheese in Rosemary
Fonville Press in Alys Beach

If you're don't mind wardriving, a lot of rental houses have unsecured wireless routers. You may even pick one up from where you stay in Grayton. I get as many as 4 from my house near Eastern Lake.

For free internet wi-fi in Grayton, run up the street to Hibiscus Cafe and Guest House.

Modica and the book store in seaside got free access also. :clap_1:

Or just rent our beach house. We have wireless high-speed Internet, a heated pool, an adjacent hot tub that's warm enough for New Year's Eve, and it's south of 30-A.

I think you missed the Grayton part. ;-)

We don't have the heated pool or adjacent hot tub, but you can park in the "lot" at the PINK house at Grayton and use our wireless connection. Just don't leave your car and go to the Red Bar for dinner! :funn:

How about Lucille's Gossip Parlor in Gulf Place near Amore? Get pizza after you check your email. Does anyone on this board know if Lucille's has wireless access or just a few computers with internet for people to use.

Also, you can contact Web30 and they'll hook up your computer for about $20 and you just use your phone line. Not as fast, but more convenient and it has alway been plenty fast enough for me. We get a looooong phone cord and then I can use the computer on the porch if I have to use the Internet while there. This is the latest information that I have -- does anyone know if they're still there (I couldn't find them easily on the Internet). They are in a small strip mall in Seagrove, on the left if you are driving from Grayton Beach, next to a green building (Beach Rentals of South Walton).
