Best Time To Visit

Spring offers warm daytime temperatures without the high risk of hurricanes. April to mid-May are a great time to plan your trip. And you may even find some lodging deals not available in the winter or summer.


You will have warmer water if you plan your visit for the fall. But buy travel insurance thanks to the higher risk of hurricanes.

Things Not To Miss

Your pup will love running the sands of Cape San Blas Dog Beach. Or if they prefer to ride instead of walk, charter a boat or take a cruise to explore the area from the water.


St Joseph Peninsula State Park offers miles of hiking (although beaches here do not allow dogs). Reserve a campsite to give you a quiet base for visiting nearby beach towns.
