Still in a LDR, but my brit wants a tan and some sunshine.
Sadly he won't be making it to my part of the US while it is still summer, so we are planning to meet in Florida at the beginning of his visit and fly back to Michigan after a few nights, as it's cheaper that way....
Anyways, I'm posting to see if anyone could recommend some nice holiday areas in Florida that would satisfy a brit. He wanted to go to Miami, but I easily talked him out of it. We definitely want somewhere along the coast, maybe even the gulf. We plan on staying in a hotel right on or near the beach. Somewhere that isn't too "touristy" but still has bars and restaurants right off the beach, and maybe even a little downtown area or some shops. Not exactly looking for a party scene(I'm imagining MTV Spring Break, please no!), but more of a younger crowd as we are both in our early/mid twenties. I don't know much about Florida except for Orlando and Ft Lauderdale, and I've been to Cocoa Beach once. So not only do I want to make my boyfriend happy but I also would like to see somewhere I haven't been. Any recommendations would be appreciated! Thanks!
