Florida or Mexico. Place with beach, sunshine, fish to catch, time off and no "g****m phones that never stop ringing"

Little known spot called Long Beach, NC. Just south of Wilmington and just north of Myrtle beach. Nice small quiet Island with lots of sand & sun! :D

Eat seafood? Use bait? Thank a commercial fisherman.

I know it isn't as tropical or exotic as the places you all say but I would never go anywhere other than my house on Cape Cod... there is nothing better. And Jimmy owns a house the town over from me so it has to be awesome :lol:

This is so general, but I never really go to the same place twice. The only place I've been a few times is Key West, and that's only been for long weekends. I feel like there are too many places to go that I haven't been to. I love any place with a Caribbean feel. Probably my two favorites have been Mexico and St. Thomas.

Grand Cayman Island. But the wife and I will be spending 3 weeks this summer on Ft. Myers Beach, so my answer might change after those three weeks.
