Laid back vacation spot with lots of local flavor. Good local restaurants and mom & pop shopping. Best beach in FL, clean and well maintained. - Traveler732282, Tripadvisor, 10 May 2021.
The beach does live up to its reputation. Miles of walking. Was a little crowded over the weekend due to spring break but during the week was much more calm and peaceful. Saw many people picking up trash which was nice. Water was good and ample waves for boggy boarding. - Jeff, Tripadvisor, April 2021.
This is a long white sand beach that the gulf is known for. Plenty of open restaurants, bars, and live music to keep everyone happy. Was there at spring break and no craziness, just everyone having a great time. - medsalesguy, Tripadvisor, April 2021.

Red Tide was back this year and water quality is getting worse. Time to take action, especially on the Gulf Coast.

We need change and we need to clean up our waters in Florida. ♡I think Florida needs to try going Blue in 22 to save our waters and wildlife. This is important that we elect people that truly care about fixing the problems that are leading to the large amounts of Red Tide and the Blue-Green Algae blooms. It can be done if we stop catering to the businesses that are being given freedom to dump in our waters without be held accountable and have no respect for all life that lives on or near the water.Water is what Florida is all about, without beautiful clean waters Florida will have little to offer. We need help from our visitors to help us fight to keep Florida waters pristine for all to enjoy. 🌞🏖🚤🛶🦀🐬🐟🐠🦈 🏝 💙💦 Water Is Life 💦💙
