As a child, my family’s favorite place to vacation was the beach. Each summer we would pack up, atleast one time – sometimes two, and head to crystal blue waters and sandy beaches for a week of sun, fun and relaxation. My favorite beach to go to was always in Florida. There just isn’t much that compares to the white sand, warm blue waters and beautiful scenery! One of the most amazing places to take your family is to Northwest Florida, Gulf Coast. There’s definetely something for everyone!
Located in Northwest Florida, Gulf County boasts 43 miles of natural shoreline. Where water surrounds, there are no high-rises or busy highways and never will be. Enjoy white-sand beaches facing westward into spectacular sunsets – on the Gulf of Mexico and St. Joseph Bay. Beckoning bayous, unexpected wildlife encounters and the mysterious Dead Lakes are among the sights you will experience in Northwest Florida, Gulf Coast. Enjoy seaside bike trails, kayaks, stand-up paddleboards and snorkeling. There is also genuine places, like the historic Indian Pass Raw Bar and flavors like Tupelo Honey.
Of couse I love to do acitivites like hiking and horseback riding, but just hanging out on the beach – day or night wiht my family – is THE BEST acitiviy I can think of when visiting the beach. Just look!
If this doesn’t look like a little piece of heaven, I’m not sure what does!
Here are some fun and quirky facts about this magnificent site:
Other fun, kind of quirky facts:
-With two time zones, only two stoplights and spotty Wi-Fi, our beautiful beaches truly let you unplug and connect with the most important thing – your family. But, don’t take our word for it, check out this at-a-glance Pinterest board with loads of local and loyalist recommendations: http://www.pinterest.com/gulfc…
-The authentic and legendary Tupelo Honey is farmed in Gulf County. The harvest begins soon – late April or early May. In fact, the 24th Annual Tupelo Honey Festival is held on May 17 on the beautiful banks of Lake Alice in Wewahitchka.

-Cape San Blas, our white sand peninsula, has amazing westward-facing beaches, so the sunsets are spectacular. In fact, GCFL is known as the #championofsunsets
-Beaches in GCFL are consistently ranked in the top ten US beaches to bring your pets on vacation. The most recent? http://www.petvr.com/index.php…. Leashed pets are welcome on the beach at all times and most rental homes will throw out the red carpet for our furry friends!
