Meet the Florida Beach Truckers

We're Sue and Bruno. As Florida residents, we have lived on both coasts of Florida. We have traveled to over 25 Florida beaches. Married for 31 years, we gave up our careers up north to move to Florida. Our original photos show you the pros and cons of each beach. This "insider's look" will answer these questions:​
  • What is the beach sand and water like?
  • Where do I park at the beach? Is it free?
  • Is it fun for kids?
  • What kind of activities are at the beach or nearby?
  • Is food available at the beach?
  • When should I go to the beach? How is the traffic?
  • What should I avoid at that beach?
  • Is it wheelchair friendly?

Our Greyhound Dog: We rescued Fancy Pants in September 2017 in Sarasota, Florida. We take her with us to dog-friendly beaches when we can. She enjoys the sand and has left her mark on Flager Beach, Ponce Inlet Lighthouse Beach and New Smyrna Beach dog park.
