Short beach vacation

Recommended Posts

We’ll be traveling from Louisiana to North Carolina and are planning to stop for a few days near a coast on the way.  The places convenient to our route look to be Alabama/Florida panhandle or in South Carolina.  Does anyone have any particular recommendations in those areas?

Thanks so much!

Gulf Shores Alabama has an awesome beach and great camping at the state park.  So much to do in the immediate area, excellent restaurants and you can buy huge red shrimp right off the boats.  There's also an Escapee park a little farther north but it's not on the beach.

We stayed in Panacea, FL for two weeks this spring and enjoyed it very much. It is in the part of the Florida Panhandle called the Forgotten Coast. Great beaches with very little crowding. It is not the hustle-bustle of Florida from Tarpon Springs to Naples or Jacksonville to Miami.

For South Carolina the state parks are fabulous. If you want busy go to Myrtle Beach. For more laid back try Edisto Beach. We've stayed in state parks at both locations and liked them. We are staying in Edisto again this fall.
