It seems hard to find a nice beach on the Gulf side without driving a goodly distance.
I guess we'll settle for Flagler Beach or Ormond Beach on the East coast. Flagler has a very nice dog beach.

You also might want to try St. Augustine Beach. It is a little farther than Flagler and is also dog friendly. There is so much to do in St. Augustine besides the beach: the old city, two outlet malls, Flagler museum and so much more. They also have some very good restaurants. My family used to own a condo on the beach but sold it for TV!

i would recommend renting a pet friendly condo. It gives you a lot more room plus a kitchen. Our condo was at SeaWinds on A1A Beach and they didn't allow renters to have pets.

We go to Clearwater Beach every year and stay at the Sheraton Sand Key Resort.
Our favorite restaurants there are the Island Way Grill and the Columbia House.
