    I love Florida. Have been to Treasure Island and St. Pete beaches. Would love to check out a new one.

    I lived there for 12yrs!!! FWB is okay but would suggest going East a bit to Destin or West to Navarre.

    Maybe Navarre. Destin is so crowded and commercialized now it's not what it used to be.

    Very true, but better choice of food and shopping in Destin / San Destin. For quiet and GREAT beaches..Navarre hands down is the place to go. Then its only a 30-45 min drive to P'Cola or Destin for shopping and food!!

    But Juana Pagodas on Navarre beach is great breakfast and has live entertainment at night!!

    Redneck Riviera

    Can be a blast if you go at the right time. Lots of colleges, bunch of big schools in striking distance, converge on those panhandle beaches every weekend.

    If you are picking a destination, then gotta tell ya, the further south you go the better. Anything below Tampa starts gettign real nice. Like Sarasota, or Sanabel, Anna Maria Island (where I am), and then of course the keys, and then into the carribean. Further south the better.

    Stay North of the Keys most of the year!! No beaches and LOTS of mosquitos!! Redneck Riviera is great in the summer - colleges frequent Destin and Panama City during spring break mostly!!

    But I agree Sanabel and other west coast Florida cities would be worth looking into as well. In addition if you're not looking to go too far south look into St. Augustine or Daytona Beach!

    In addition to beautiful, the beach must be kid friendly. No hot spot party beaches.

    oh boy. When I saw the acronym FWB, I thought it was "Friends with Benefits".

    I can't be the only one who thought that LOL
