How to Pack for Your Winter Vacation
The winter climate in Florida is very different from that in the northern states. Leave your winter coats, scarves, and gloves at home and pack these essentials for your beach vacation:
-Pack a wide variety of clothes to layer for the fluctuating temperatures. We recommend bringing shorts and T-shirts for the daytime and pants, sweaters, and light jackets for the chillier evenings.
-The Florida sun continues to shine through the winter- pack sunscreen, sunhats, and sunglasses.
-Bring comfortable walking shoes for outdoor activities like hiking, beachcombing, and wildlife watching.
What to Do During Your Winter Vacation
-The average water temperature on the Gulf Coast in winter is 65 degrees. Enjoy swimming year-round at our beach accesses.
-Walk along the sandy shores and spend an afternoon beachcombing, shelling, fishing, and watching wildlife.
