Welcome to Miramar Beach


After being on the Atlantic and watching sunrises every morning, we were soon stunned. We hadn’t thought about the fact that Miramar is essentially on the West coast of the Florida peninsula, and so we would be able to now enjoy sunsets, not unlike being in California. With glorious weather on the day we arrived, our welcome to Miramar Beach came along with a beautiful sunset!

We were lulled into a feeling that every day would be glorious, but we were soon brought back into reality. Overall, it is still considerably warmer than being on the Atlantic, even though we are quite a bit further North of Flagler Beach. But we soon learned that the normally changing weather in Florida is in play here as well. Strong winds are frequent, and soon the rain clouds moved in. But that wouldn’t keep us from venturing out.

We had forgotten how wonderful the beaches are on the Florida Panhandle. The sand is almost white, and is almost the consistency of powdered sugar. We found an off-leash dog beach near Panama City Beach, which allowed us to run Kona ragged chasing his squeaky ball. As you can see, somebody really enjoys this sugary sand.

Talk to you soon.
