Here’s a little insider secret – late summer is an excellent time to visit. In August and September, the family vacationers have cleared out, it’s still ideal beach weather and you’ll find better values on lodging. This is the perfect time to clear your schedule, clear your head and get rejuvenated.
Get the best of both worlds…perfect beach weather and little crowds.  As a kid I can remember visiting the beach with my parents and looking forward to the crowds, however as I have grown older and now have kids myself, the beach is so much more enjoyable sans the summer migrants from all over the Gulf Cost.
