Pensacola - The Delaplaine 2017 Long Weekend Guide: Long Weekend Guides
()
About this ebook
Welcome to the “Redneck Riviera”!
Or, as many people call it, the “Forgotten Coast.”
Once you visit this quiet area of the Florida Panhandle, however, you’ll never forget it, I promise you. This part of Florida has nothing in common with South Beach and Miami, and the people here prefer it that way.
Here’s you’ll fine a complete guide (updated a couple of times a year) for everything you need to experience a great Long Weekend in Pensacola. You’ll love the area’s wide beaches, the low-key lifestyle and the endless supply of great seafood.
“We’ve always preferred the Florida Panhandle to other parts of the West Coast—it’s less crowded, the people are more down-to-earth and the prices are cheaper. We found a couple of nice restaurants in this Guide we hadn’t known about before.”
--- Louise S., Boston
“Was really happy with the restaurant selection—and the shortness of the book. I got everything I needed to know in no time at all. We checked out 2 of the inns and chose the second one we visited. No filler and fluff in this handy guide.”
--- Charleen H., Chattanooga
You'll save a lot of time using this concise guide.
=Lodgings, variously priced
=Fine & budget restaurants, more than enough listings to give you a sense of the variety to be found.
=Principal attractions -- don't waste your precious time on the lesser ones. We've done all the work for you.
=A handful of interesting shopping ideas.

WHY PENSACOLA?
Description: Macintosh HD:Users:chip:Desktop:6034201700_b88db0ea83_o copy.jpg––––––––
Just as Apalachicola is not a part of the Redneck Riviera
exactly (that honor is reserved to the touristy area around Panama City and Panama City Beach, two distinct cities, as they will be the first to remind you), Pensacola is close enough to be a Kissin’ Cousin. Pensacola also has a sister city called Pensacola Beach.
But all these towns are beads in the necklace of towns they call in these parts the Emerald Coast, which runs roughly 100 miles along Highway 98 from Panama City to Pensacola in Florida’s Panhandle.
––––––––
Pensacola Beach is reached by driving over the Bay Bridge (small toll) onto Santa Rosa Island.
