Is it ever too cold to swim in the Gulf of Mexico?

Welcome to Paradise. I remember when I was a kid and a hurricane was coming up the east coast of the US and bearing down on Cape Cod.  I didn't own property and didn't even like traveling to my mother's hometown on "The Cape" so wasn't even super aware there was any danger involved.  Then we started getting news reports a few days before impact.  It was news - I had NEVER heard before.  The storm was going to drive warm water from the south so the ocean temperature at my beach was going to be 74 degrees. It seemed like a miracle.  I was used to the temp being in the 60s.   Of course, since then I moved to Florida and became accustomed gulf temperatures in the 80 degree range (and even the high 80s in the summer).  There is LITERALLY NOTHING better in life. Actually the best thing is when your first grader asks to go surfing;  on the coldest day of the year.  And you go. My Website

What's the best Island to Visit in Florida?

Welcome to paradise. It probably took me the better part of my first year in Florida to understand the difference between Keys, Islands, Shoals, barrier Islands and invisible islands. We have them all. Our son has named the state park formed by the ICW dredge after us, seems a little grandiose for my taste but we live just north of "10,000 islands" and the place he named is only an acre with a couple of trees and a lean-to (not too bad).  We go there a bunch and take friends, it seems like a little getaway.  Good fun right by where we live. And then we heard about one tree island in Clearwater.  So we headed there..... #Islandlife Search for Island Homes
