I've never walked that shore. I have been to Datona
Beach a few times. Another thing you will want to
keep in mind is that there is so much built up
around the shore, that it is often hard to find a
place to park, or to get access. But as far as rock,
that would be areas where rocks were dumped. And
this would not be a normal swimming area.

Now at Tampa, there is a cauwsway that has both
rocky and sandy areas for swimming and boating.

Also do a google earth and look at the area before
you go down.

Are you familiar with google earth?

There's not much in the way of corals untill you go farther south like
Miami, Napels, Keys. But there are some sparce coral spots in deaper
water farther north (Im not sure of those locations) If you want a
popular beach nearest you, Datona Beach is very popular. Jacksonvill
is still quite north and gets colder in the winter. Winter lows are
about 10 degrees warmer for about every 60 to 120 miles you go south.

Thanks for the info, Wayne...

I am booking my flight and it looks like I will only have
Friday evening and Saturday before noon as free time...
Not a lot.

I know that north side, "Atlantic Beach" is flat and sandy.
Where will be the first place on the Atlantic side with more
"rocky" shore? I bet I would have more chances to find some
interesting creatures wading on a rocky shore than sandy beach.
