Did we make a mistake? Beach day at Longboat Key | Manny's Chophouse | DAY FOUR | Florida August 23

Hello and welcome to the new video.
Today we did something. We cheated on Anna Maria Island (our usual beach) and headed to a new beach. Let me know what you think?
Oh and Mannys after a bit of Bath and Bodywork’s damage 😝

    Another great vlog Gemma, we’ve been to St. Pete’s beach and loved, but we’ve also done Cocoa beach and enjoyed that too. Lately we’ve been to Daytona Beach and really liked it there, we always park near the Starbucks right at the beach and take a walk out on the pier.

    I'm from Sarasota. The best beach to go to is Coquina Beach on the southern end of Anna Maria there is plenty of parking , restrooms, a snack bar and some shade trees and if you sit by the pass from Anna Maria and Longboat Key that is a really good place to see the dolphins

    Bean point is my favorite all time beach. Longboat is beautiful but they recently did renovation on there and got rid of beer can island, which was really unique and fun to hike through with trees and drift wood. Look forward to more videos. you guys like busch gardens or seaworld more?

    We loved Bean Point. I’m not sure it can be beaten. Oohhh that’s a really hard question. I think I’d have to go with Seaworld but Busch is very close behind. Ian says Seaworld. I’ll ask the kids later. I think Jake would say Busch but I Abbie Im not sure. I’ll come back to you 😃

    Great video We always enjoy your videos as you take the time to detail costs and tips along the way very well done. We went to clearwater earlier this year and enjoyed it but why wouldn't you. Next time I think we will try Anna Maria. Just wanted to add we have been watching your content for a few years now and you both obviously work very hard to give your kids and yourselves the holiday you want so you shouldn't feel like you have to justify what you spend and where you spend it as its your money and your choice. If anybody doesn't like how you spend it then they can just stop watching. Lovely family good people and we are looking forward to following all your future adventures. One last thing we had the filet mignon at mannys and the pork omg that steak.it's our must visit !

    Ah thank you. Oh of course. I only really talk about money because it’s what I want to know when I’m watching vlogs. I just read so many peoples budgets and think wow that’s great you have that but don’t make others think that’s what you need to spend to have a great time. For us, we’d rather be able to afford to go multiple times than 1 big trip every other year or longer. 😃 Clearwater - it just reminds me of going to Bournemouth or Weymouth. Expensive car parking, crowds, restaurants and shops. Do t get me wrong it does look nice we just love to find a peaceful beach 🏖️ xx

    Brilliant Gemma as always. You all look like you are having a great time .We went to clearwater for 2 days on our trip in June. Stayed at La quinta hotel oppposite Walmart, about 15 mins up from the beach. Was around 100 dollars for 2 adults and 2 kids. Included a good breakfast. By staying over , it took the pressure out of going to and back to Orlando in the same day. Was the best 2 days of our trip. Would highly recommend.

    This looks like a very fun day for all of your family! I'd love to try Manny's Chophouse; it looked really good. We were at Panama City Beach recently and had to leave early because a hurricane at level 3 hit the next morning. Thankfully it hit further east than where we were, but you never know where they will hit so we left a little early. It was a lot of fun and we spent a lot of time on the beach and in the water. You can be in the water for a couple of hours and not realize the time has gone so fast!
