Pensacola Beach vs Perdido Key Beach | Battle of the beaches
Everything you could ask for when it comes to a beach town, whether planning to live or vacation, Pensacola Beach & Perdido Key is one of Florida's best beaches. In this video, I am going to talk about the difference between both beaches. CHECK IT OUT!
If It's your first time on the channel, Welcome - My name is Tim Ekelund.
As a Long-Long Resident, I'll share everything there is to know about living in Pensacola & The Emerald Coast. I'll share all the great things and the not-so-great things too. I hope you enjoy the video and subscribe to see the next one.
I want to thank you for the opportunity to help you with one of the most important decisions in your life: The successful purchase or sale of your home.
I am a dedicated family man and spend as much my free time with my children and wife as my real estate career allows. We love to travel, enjoy the beach and boating activities. I am an active member of a Rotary group and love to give back to the community.
In retrospect, the decision to make Pensacola my permanent home was the best move of my life.
In summary, I believe I bring something completely different to the table that separates me from other real estate agents, and would love an opportunity to work closely with you to sell your home.
I know exactly how overwhelming and stressful it is to move and shopping online to find the perfect neighbourhood, and home to fit your family's desired lifestyle and budget is next to impossible.
My mission is to provide you and your family with the best information and content to make your decision and move easy, stress-free, and fun.
So go ahead and check out some of my other videos. And if you're even thinking about moving or relocating down here to Pensacola Florida, You've got to give me a call, shoot me a text, send me an email, message me on Facebook, by any means necessary. Because we've got your back when it comes to moving to Pensacola Florida!

    Navarre Beach is quieter than Pensacola Beach. If you go to Opal Beach (in between the 2..) you feel like you're on the edge of the world alone at a pristine beach. Its amazing.

    Hey Tim.....Great video. About the land lease thing on Pensacola Beach- All Pensacola Beach property is leased rather than owned because of a 1947 agreement, which deeded much of Santa Rosa Island to Escambia County from the federal government. The deed agreement prohibited the county from selling the land and stipulated the land must be used to benefit the public. In the 1950s, county leaders decided to promote the beach as a tourist attraction and created the system of 99-year leases governed by the authority to allow commercial and residential development.

    Great vid! Very informative. We visited the panhandle for the first time 2 yrs ago and fell in love. All we had ever known was Myrtle Beach. We would like to try somewhere else along the panhandle this summer. We are leaning toward Pensacola/Perdido Key. As far as the clarity of the water, is there a significant difference between the two?

    Pensacola Beach and Perdido Key Beaches are way too expensive in the months of June through through late August. Too many tourists from Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana. Close to home for them and the Hotel and Condo rental rates are outrageous. The dining prices are too high also. Only visit this area after Labor day to keep your money in your pocket. September and October are the months to vacation because all the teeny boppers and College crowds are gone back home to school or work and the families too. Its wide open and no traffic in September, October and November. Then the white haired Canadian snowbirds come down for the Winter to hibernate until Spring. I prefer Naples Florida on the Gulf or Vero Beach on the Atlantic Ocean. Hallandale Beach is great for the Thoroughbred horse racing season and Casino at Gulfstream Park. Weather, Ocean and great food plus the entertainment. Miami and Ft. Lauderdale are way overcrowded with tourists and Cubans, retired rich Jews. Playalynda Beach is for the au natural sun worshippers and hippies and substance abusers. Far out man! Way way far out and brain dead too! Too much drugs and reefer man! They get blasted into Outer Space there man! They never come back to orbit again either! Far Out Man! Aliens no doubt.

He merely mentioned Orange beach because it has those tourist attractions that Perdido Key doesn't and it's a short trip. Tim is a real estate professional (2 seconds of knowing anything would have told you that)... In order for it to be a "shill" he would have to profit off the items he mentioned. Stop being a troll...the world has enough fucktards as it is...
