Beach time in fll

[Josie2]

We will be in flu Nov 26 -28. Staying at Embassy Suites on 17th st. Question. Can we expect to swim in the ocean then and are the beaches public. Can we rent chairs etc without being in a hotel on the beach? Thx.

We are going on Nov 10th and go to the beach right across the street It is warm but the reg flags can sometimes come out. This is the 3rd Nov tht we have gone down before cruising. We are staying at the Best Western Oceanside on Seabreeze near 17th street.

The weather and water could be a tad chilly at the end of November. Beaches are public and chair rentals are available. I suggest getting dropped off at Beach Place as there are bars, shops, restaurants, and public restrooms, across from the beach.

Weather in Florida is always very fickle. It might be horrible one November, and the next year November is perfect. This is our life here in FL, the subtropics. :)

 

Depending on where you are from, the ocean water is fine. If you are used to super warm water, you may have some difficulties. I'm in Orlando- and didn't have an issue in Nov in South Florida weather-wise, but the water wasa bit cold for my tastes.

Looks like the OP is from Canada. I can always tell the Canadians from the Floridians in the winter months.

 

The Canadians are in the water! :D

 

The Floridians are bundled up in coats, in the car with the heater on! :eek:

IF the sky is clear and sunny it can be comfortable in late November, but we don't go in the water. Air will be too cool for us. But it feels wonderful while lounging by a pool or ocean providing the sun is shining brightly. I just wouldn't count on true "beachy" weather and you'll be happy!

Yes warm is relative for us Canadians. 80 degrees is hot for us and we are happy at 75 or above. We are forecast to go below zero celcius this week.

The Embassy Suites has a great outdoor pool area....
