The Forgotten Coast of Florida is filled with can’t miss doggy attractions!
Nestled on the Florida Panhandle is the so-called The Forgotten Coast, where
Cape San Blas, Port St. Joe, and Mexico Beach are said to be among the best vacation destinations in the United States.
This vacation paradise is where you and your pup will find miles of uncrowded, pristine, white sand beaches.
You will discover that there is no shortage of things to do there! You can relax on the beach or swim in the glistening Gulf waters. You will want to explore unspoiled nature by foot and paw with your furry friend, just like we would with Luie Boone!
The Forgotten Coast is a go-to vacation heaven to share with your best friend!

What does Luie Boone think of this rental? He woofed:
We are going on vacation to one of the most popular destinations on The Forgotten Coast of Florida. I am betting with my family that we will never forget this vacation! How could we ever forget miles of uncrowded, pristine, white sand beaches that are perfect for swimming or taking a walk on? We will not forget that the rental we will be staying at has a private boardwalk that will take us right down to the beach! And how could we ever forget that the rental also has a private outdoor shower with both cold and hot water? It’s a wonderful place to wash off the sand after a day on the beach! I know I am going to win this bet, as none of us will ever be able to forget this vacation! This is bet that you and your dog should want to take, too.

Luie Boone's Pet Peeve about
The Forgotten Coast of Florida
There's just so much to love about this vacation destination, but there's one thing that's got Luie Boone's leash in a twist. He woofed:
The beaches of The Forgotten Coast of Florida face west. That means the sun sets over the water in the west every night. The sunsets here are supposed to be spectacular. I'll be facing the west every night to see it. But, wait a minute.. how about sunrises, as I get up really early in the morning? Are they just as beautiful? I guess I'll have to go to the Forgotten Coast of Florida to see for myself.
