Travel Note
Beach bonfires are a huge hit in this area! They are as simple as beach chairs with a bonfire or as elaborate as a full dinner setup with solo stoves. Beach bonfires book up fast so make a reservation in advance.
Travel Note
Biking is an easy way to explore the 24 mile stretch that hugs the Gulf of Mexico coastline. You can also ride from "beach town" to "beach town" as a convenient mode of transportation. Bike rentals are a dime a dozen but you can rent bikes in advance and have them delivered to the complex you're staying in.
