We like the area. Sure, it's not Pensacola Beach, but it's so well located for so much that we don't really go to the beach much anymore. Try antiquing on US 98 (go right at the Y just after Sonny's BBQ). Walk the park. Fish off the Sunset bridge. Put your boat in at the ramp. Enjoy all the restaurants on Navy Blvd. Or stock up on groceries a few blocks away at Greer's and cook at the house. Perdido key is about 15 or 20 minutes away, and Pensacola Beach is about the same, so that's an option too!
