Mexico Beach Vacation Rentals, Homes, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals
Mexico Beach
is located on Florida’s panhandle near St. Joseph Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. This is the “Forgotten Coast” of Florida, and Mexico Beach bills itself as the “Quiet Alternative” to your Florida seaside vacation. Mexico Beach is tranquil and uncrowded, yet it has just as many recreational choices as the more well known beachside resorts in the state. Relaxation takes on a new meaning as you stroll along the pristine white sand beaches, breathe in the fresh sea air and swim in the warm, emerald green waters. For more activity, you can surf, water ski, go parasailing, play volleyball, badminton or horseshoes. Professional charter boats are available for sport fishing or you can fish right along the shoreline. For golfers, nearby St. Joseph’s Bay offers a championship 18-hole golf course to test your competitive spirit. Mexico Beach has a beautiful marina and canal park for easy access to the Gulf. There is also a picturesque pier to sit and watch the sunset or for fishing. There are two beachside parks in Mexico Beach and a boardwalk to the beach, perfect for early morning or evening walks. Come discover Mexico Beach on Florida’s beautiful, peaceful “Forgotten Coast.”
The Emerald Coast of Northwest Florida's Panhandle region enjoys warm temperatures all year long, although it is slightly cooler in the wintertime than southern Florida, due to its latitude and prevailing northerly winds. The Panhandle region also receives the most rainfall in the state - more than 50 inches annually. However, most of these storms, especially in the summertime, pass quickly and sunshine quickly returns. Hot and humid conditions can be expected throughout most of the summer months, May through September, although the area does receive lovely tropical breezes off the Gulf. Hurricane season generally runs late August through October, but direct hits along the Gulf Coast are not frequent.
