FL Beach Town Help Needed
DH and I are trying to break from our Summer-Vegas trip tradition and are looking for a quaint little beach town with good food, shopping and relaxing. We're very familiar with the Fort Myers area and are wanting to change it up a bit, so we're thinking fo flying into JAX or Orlando, I realize Orlando is about an hour away from the beaches but airfare is out of control for most of the other airports. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Re: FL Beach Town Help Needed
Anna Maria Island--you could fly into Tampa and it is about an hour and 15 minutes fromTampa or fly into Sarasota and it's a 20 minute ride.
Great town--quiet, free trolley, couple of fishing piers to walk on, restaurants on the beach, a few cute shops. And the beach is long and flat.
We have been going for about 6 years now and love it.
You can also drive to Longboat Key (about 15 minutes away from AMI) to shop and go to a small aquarium. This year we also did a day trip to Busch gardens from AMI and it was great for our 3 and 1 year old b/c there is a Sesame street area and lots of animals.
IAMI reminds me a bit of Sanibel/Captiva if you have ever been there.
