In years past I have been to Destin (LOVE this beach area), Panama City Beach, and Tampa on the "inside" of FL as well as orlando (tourist nightmare) and vero beach (quiet little place in October) on the Atlantic side of FL.
Tampa is the furthest south I have gone into FL. Loved the seafood in FL and have been able to swim with the dolphins, go kayaking, and snorkeling as well.
Has anyone been further south? Like Miami, fort Myers? Or even key west?
I have always want to go to key west but timing, money and life have gotten in the way. Unsure if it's worth it? Maybe key largo?
So any recommendation?
Debating on driving (like I normally do) or fly and rent a car?
I want to stuff my face with fresh seafood. Do some kayaking and swim in the ocean/gulf and just enjoy laying in the sand on the beach. Just get away from this Chicago weather and away from work! I got 10 days of vacation days banked for end of oct or 1st week in November.
