Every year my family and I go on a trip to Florida for a spring break trip. Sometimes we stay with family and more recently we've been renting places that are right on a beach. Or one of the costal Key island. In 2010 we rented and stayed at a place called Beach Castle Resort in Long Boat Key Florida.
The resort is situated on both sides of the road that goes all the way from the north side of the island to the south side of the island. Essentially, there is an 8 unit building that has two floors and 4 units per level. Across the road is the pool, and a coule of multi unit buildings with varying floor plans. Also if you go all the way to the back of the lot the resort has a dock with some human powered water craft.
We had brought with us our dinghy which is from our larger boat which we keep in Chicago. So at the beginning of the week we put it in the water at a launch ramp up the road and kept it on the beach in the back lagoon. The walk wasn't too bad or long to get to the boat so I went nearly every day exploring the inlets and the houses that were on both sides of the channels I went into. I was also able to take the dinghy all the way around the island and even get myself some lunch at a roadside stop at the south side of the island.
The reason we chose the Beach Castle Resort was so that we could all do what we wanted. My wife and the girls would head down to the beach every day, while I would start out my days checking my email, and then head back to the boat. My son would normally go both ways. At the time he was only two so we had to keep tabs on him pretty good.
