Well, it all depends on where you are staying. Now is a great time of year to come. All the tourists of the summer are on their way out, and all the winter vacationers won't be here for a few more months. So, things will be better (less crowds at the beach, etc). If you are staying in the Tampa area, I would check out Clearwater beach. It's a very nice beach, and area. Also Ybor city in central Tampa. Some of the night clubs are trashy, but some are very nice, and fun. If staying in the Miami area, one word: SouthBeach. beautiful city as well. Lot's of fun things to do down here, and yes it's nice and warm this time of year. The afternoon rain has stopped for the season, and it's just bright sun, and hot weather. I hope you have a great trip. Let us know how much fun you had, when you get back....
