We%26#39;re a couple in our early 60%26#39;s from upstate NY looking for a relaxing Florida getaway somewhere on the eastern coast of Florida. We like being near the water and having things to do. What city would your recommend for a week? What city/citys should we avoid? After we pick a city we%26#39;re going to the look for a condo or hotel with kitchen.
We%26#39;ve been to Miami and Daytona and would rather not go back. We%26#39;ve also been to Sanabel Island, Sarasota, and St. Petersburg on the west coast and have enjoyed those places.
We need suggestions on the east coast.
Melbourne Beach / Indialantic area is small town but still has things to do. Is also only 1 hours drive to Orlando or 20 minutes to Cape Canaveral. Visit Old Downtown Melbourne with shops, restaurants, bars and some entertainment. They have a large art show at the end of April. The King Center has lots of shows to choose from. Vero Beach is another nice small town, not as much to do as Melbourne but still a nice area. If you want something a little more historical try St. Augustine. You can stay beachside %26amp; drive over to the city to explore rather than stay in the tourist area.
We need suggestions on the east coast.
Vero Beach%26#39;s recently rebuilt Riverside Theatre and the Art Museum across the street are quite busy until the end of April, when the snowbirds migrate. The overall tone is affluent, Northeastern, retired. Lilly Pulitzer, not biker bar.
Have you thought about Cocoa Beach. Great beach, relax on the pier, or visit the Kennedy Space Center.
i think of the east coast towns i have visited ft lauderdale would be my first choice
however , above that i would personally choose naples on the west coast , great beaches , plenty of fishing off the pier , lovely places to stay %26amp; eat %26amp; in general a great relaxed atmosphere %26amp; a nice place for strolling %26amp; shopping - also not too much of a drive from the everglades which offers plenty more options for things to do
