Thanks so much for watching, Gulfport is a great destination in Florida to explore rain or shine! Do you think you would enjoy this eclectic seaside village? Let us know!
Gulfport is such a cute & artsy little town. I went to their Gecko fest a few years ago & there were lots of colorful people/entertainers. It was fun! Great video (I'm binge watching your channel because I'll be in the area for the Holiday weekend. Can't wait!)
@@chrissyp3065 We saw an advertisement for the Gecko fest when we visited, it look like fun, so glad you were able to experience it! We hope you have a great time when you are here over the weekend :)
NICE JOB! I live in Gulfport. I've been lucky enough to have traveled extensively and I have never been to any place like Gulfport. The combination of happening and CHILL is amazing. I feel so lucky to have found it and to live here!
We've yet to find anything quite like it either and agree that it's wonderful place! Thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment!
we live in sarasota had no clue of this hidden gem!! wow !! you must go to the Italian restaurant called PIA !! holy cow man!!!!!! like a good NYC Italian old school restaurant , saw your video bc I wanted to know more about the area we will go back again , thank you for the tutorial!!!, regards, Rene & Karen
Hi Rene & Karen, thanks so much for watching, Gulfport really is a unique city to visit. Pia's has been on our list for awhile, everyone raves about it. We are so glad you enjoyed it too :)
Everything looked incredible, but was the big coffee needed for a, pick me up..hehe. Love it. We love you guys, as you are always real and true, and that's what life is all about, ONE LOVE
The coffees and avocado toast at Gulfperk look amazing! The downtown area looks so cute! There seems to be A LOT of art in all of the areas you visit, love it! Thats too bad is was super windy down by the water, but thats awesome you can just go find a place to wait out the storm. THanks for taking us along with you guys!
Avocado toast and latte 😋 my favorite duo for a breakfast. You had a windy day at the beach but the places you visited are so so amazing. Florida storms are indeed inevitable. Really enjoy watching Florida 😍
Another great overview that's making me wish I could get some tropical vibes in my life. Crazy how long it too for the storm to get there. But glad you were able to enjoy the day and explore before it hit. The coffee shops looked so cute, and you know me... always a fan of breweries.
So cool . Thanks for sharing and posting this awsome video. I'm headed to Clearwater for a 2 week visit with friends. Very excited and now watching your videos I have a bunch of day trips planned to get out and see the sights..
We love to hear when our videos are able to help people to better plan and enjoy their vacations. We hope you and your friends have a great time. Thanks so much for watching!
how cool that someone knew you and ur channel thats so so cool!!!! ohhh what a cool cosy brewery cant beat a good beer!!! bit windy on the peir hahaha!!! ohh making me hungry now!!! amazing cuben food! great video guys!!
I can't believe your day started out so sunny...how quickly the weather had changed! I don't think I have ever seen a blue heron up close in real life...it looked like it was about to blow away in the wind. Mmmmm, the Mexican chocolate espresso looked yummy! I love Cuban food...the sampler is always a good choice. Glad you guys saved room for dessert...the flan looked amazing!
Yup, that's Florida weather for ya! The storms come in fast (and often), but thankfully they usually leave fast too! That Cuban sampler was seriously the best meal I've had in quite a while!
Pretty cool that you got that close to a heron... and that was a storm and a half! Was that the first time you have met someone who recognised you from your channel?
Skylar gets along with his bird friends really well and always gets good footage of whatever birds seem to be hanging around. That was the first time we met someone who recognized us. It was pretty cool!
Wow amazing video guys😁. You will definitely find me at the Gulfport Brewery drinking the Haze IPA! That weather was not ideal but well done for making the most of it. We can't believe there were people just lying on the beach in that wind 🤣. That cuban food looks really good!
Greetings from Canada. I wish I was there instead of up here in cold. I love travel channels. I am a traveller too. I will get through there soon. Great information.
What a cute little town! Loved all the colorful murals! That chai latte looked so delicious! The Cuban sampler platter made my mouth water. Great recommendations guys!
After every one of your videos we just want to jet off and explore Florida! Really enjoy seeing all the amazing spots to visit and nice cafes and breweries. You guys must really enjoy making your videos because you go exploring and find all those awesome places 🤩 Sorry about the bad weather at the bay 😅 getting sand blasted is never fun 🙈 That storm really came in strong! That Cuban dinner sounded delicious! 🤤
Thanks so much for watching :) we hope you two are able to come and explore in this area some day. The options really are endless in the state of Florida. We do really enjoy making the videos, it is so fun getting out and experiencing these new areas, even though they aren't too far from us. The storm did change our plans, but we didn't let it ruin our day, we still enjoy a good thunderstorm :)
We Love your videos!!! So nice to see what to do in Gulfport! The cafe you first took us to was SO CUTE! Art and Fresh Market sounds really fun too! I feel like there is always so much to do where you guys are! The fun just never stops! You guys got SO CLOSE to that Blue Heron! Haha it's so windy!!! I almost feel like Beer is always in your videos! You should come up with an explorcation beer guide! HAHA. That would be so fun! Then CUBAN BEER! You are truly our go to guides for Florida! Thanks for sharing food and fun!
Yeah that blue heron was fearless and beautiful. We've always been told that you have to go to Miami or Tampa for great authentic Cuban food in Florida, but we were so happy to find some so close to home in Gulfport!
I love that Gulfport Brewery is just in an old house! Looks like a fun, cozy environment! So cool that you ran into someone who recognized your channel and even gave you a beer recommendation! Also, that Cuban food looked absolutely delicious 😋We both love Cuban food
LOL yeah pretty much every business in Gulfport is "just in an old house", and we loved it! It definitely has that old southern charm. The Cuban food was some of the best food we've had in a long time. It's up there on our list of favorites as well!
So we watched the Perfect Storm last night and now I'm watching this thinking that the coast out that way always has storms, lol. I even remember my short trip to Florida years ago during November was just one storm after another. We're going to have to watch more of your Florida vids to see different weather 😂
hahaha, we definitely have plenty of sunny days here. We live in St Pete currently and it is known as the Sunshine City because it averages around 361 days of sunshine a year! I will say though, this past winter seemed to bring more rain than usual. Thanks so much for watching!
Gulf Perk looked like a great coffee and breakfast place to start your day, we can relate to needing coffee after a late night of editing😴 Love that you guys are starting to get known for your love of breweries and getting recommendations from the locals now🍻 That heron had no fear of getting close to the camera! 😂 the weather turned so quickly after that! Great plan to head in for shelter at Caddy’s, the weather changes so quickly in Florida we’ve been caught in so many rainstorms there!
Yeah, COVID has definitely forced us into niching down a bit more than planned and really focus on Florida content. But thankfully we love making Florida content, so we really can't complain one bit! We still plan to travel the world, if we become known as those Florida people who love to drink beer in the meantime, we can live with it 😆
So cool that you met someone that's familiar with your channel, cool that you were able to take his recommendation for both the beer and the brewery, seems like a cool spot. Bummer about the rain and that you weren't able to go back and hear the music from the band because of it.
I'm currently thinking about moving from Pennsylvania to Seminole Florida and found your channel while doing my research. I've watched quite a few videos so far so I wanted to say thanks for the effort! Also, I'm blaming you if I make the wrong decision! ;)
We're so glad to hear you've been watching our videos. Hopefully they have been helpful. We have not once regret moving to Florida from the Midwest. If for some reason you don't like it, you can always move back. Feel free to blame us too. 😅
OMG, those coffees were huge...I guess you needed them after the late night your guys had :) The beers looked good, not sure the sour one would have been a hit with me though..lol I loved seeing a the bird coming in to nab some food....looked like he was trying to dry himself. It's a shame the weather turned so windy and rainy for you, but you found the prefect spot to chill while it was around. Jamie...you need a hair tie haha The cuban dinner looked cool, I would love to try that one day Thanks for sharing guys :)
Well when you are as tired as we were, and the grande coffee is only 50 cents more than the medium, you gotta go with the grande! 😅 Yup, Jamie definitely picked the wrong day to forget her hair tie, but it at least made for some funny footage!
Gulfport looks like a lovely place! I really liked that the cafe and brewery you visited looked like someone's house. How charming! This doesn't look like a very touristy area. It looks like it would be a good option to live here if I want to enjoy the Florida lifestyle but not be overwhelmed by crowds. Do you find Gulfport to be walkable?
Hey Tonya! Yeah, Gulfport definitely has that less touristy, old-Florida feel. Unless you visit during Gecko-fest... during that time the streets are filled with people and it feels extremely touristy. The downtown area and water-front of Gulfport is quite touristy. It's a very artsy city and has a bit of a hippy/gypsy vibe. It's similar to Safety Harbor in many ways, both cities which we love.
It looks so cool there,am so happy for u guys ,just a question,w about the factories there ,is there any in ur area? Thanks for sharing this w us . God bless u all
We hope you have a great vacation. There are a lot of apartments to chose from. They've built at least three new, large apartment complexes near downtown St. Pete just within the last year, and they are building more. The rent here is higher than Tampa and the majority of Florida, but still much lower than places like New York, LA, etc...
That is a tough question because I don't think we really got to experience this location in Gulfport. When we made it to the 2nd floor there weren't many people and the band started to pack up due to the storm rolling in...and then it poured for a while LOL. We did really enjoy the view because we could see the bay, the beach and a little of Beach Boulevard. We will have to go back when there isn't a line of storms coming our way 😄
According to Google the Caddy's Gulfport location is closed? Too bad, we have been to the Treasure Island location one three or four times and had been bookmarking their other locations to stop by on future trips.
