Pensacola Beach vs Perdido Key Beach | Battle of the beaches

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

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!

[@FootballTHProd]

I’m good I don’t think I’m gonna read it all

[@Seek_Him]

Great Video Love The Beach !

[@DcnBls]

Either choice is a win, it's all a matter of personal preference. My wife and I are planning on returning to Perdido Key next year. We fell in love with the area when we visited in 2015. We loved it so much we decided that's where we want to retire.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Yes exactly. Thanks for watching and the comment. Make sure to hit us up so we can help you retire here :)

[@SallyLulu885]

Been to Pensacola Beach two times and it is absolutely beautiful!!! I would like to go to Perdido Beach as well.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Yes you definitely need to check out perdido.

[@GeSweety]

A little bit more then 5 years until I can move. Until then, vacation has to do. I loooove Perdido Beach, its a lot more relaxing ( I found me a section that not many seem to be aware of 😉) I'll be back in June, can't wait! Until then I'll enjoy your vids.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Awesome

[@dallas11573]

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.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Appreciate the comment 🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@ImTaryn]

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.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Thanks for watching and the comment. Navarre Beach is great and yes much quieter. Great pier restaurant and bar :)

[@writenowwithtrish9683]

Good video..makes me want my flipflops. Unpacked..

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Thanks for watching. Grab em and the sunscreen :)

[@lorigutierrez1193]

We can't wait to be in Pensacola. One day

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

We can't wait for you to be out here either :)

[@YoureNotChristyImChristy]

Excellent video!

[@katiejensen9345]

Great information! I'm thinking stay in Perdido and visit Pensacola for a day ;)

[@FootballTHProd]

I’m in school but good video even though I haven’t seen it

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Haha

[@FootballTHProd]

😂😂😂😂

[@lisahuber866]

We haven't spent much time in the panhandle, but love Florida beaches! Trying to decided between Perdido and Navarre for a getaway with my husband. Any recommendations either way? Would love to soak up time at the beach, good restaurants, not much into wild nightlife! :)

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Sounds like a fun time. Both are great, you can't go wrong with either beach. Probably for me would be wherever I can get the better deal.

[@rickwyattdotnet]

I absolutely love PCB. I think I will retire in Gulf Breeze just to have that access. I love going to the Fort Pickens beach area, it is fairly never crowded and my kids can play for hours upon hours there. Thanks for the quality content.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Thanks for watching and yes it is great 🤙🤙

[@sandraallen7583]

AWESOME 👍😎!! I WILL BE THEIR IN JUNE 2023!! FOR OUR FAMILY VACATION!! AMEN AND HALLELUJAH... 🙏 😎 ⛱️ 🌊

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Wow that's nice! Hope y'all will love it here!

[@Amanda-Lee33]

My husband has never been to PCB last time I was there was 1976 stayed at a hotel called the Dunes no doubt it has grown alot! since then but I remember it being beautiful. Were comming for our 40th Anniversary can you recommend anything special for us to do there. Want to rent one of those cars an ride down to Navarre Beach just saw them on youtube. I appreciate it

[@mansourramzey7711]

wow great information, me and her are coming to pcb on june 28 till July 1st only 3 nights ( 3 expensive nights) and i have always considered a condo by the beach to either retire or have it for vacation and maybe rent it while i am not there, idk anything about pcb tax or property laws and policies. but you never know i might need your help down the road. tks for the video

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Awesome, hope yall had a great time here. Feel free to hit me up with any questions.

[@cowlumbus]

How noise is the constant plane traffic there? if you are within a few miles of the bases are we going to go nuts with noise?

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Not sure, we love it ;)

[@Moneypower572]

I prefer Hallandale beach Florida beautiful city good beaches and restaurants and growing businesses and communities, and good nightlife.❤

[@paulachannell4296]

Native & blessed !

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Sweet

[@lauragb9242]

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?

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Thanks for your comment! I would love to talk more about that! Call me when you can 850-637-8622

[@luvsabeach7952]

Where is the best shelling beach in the Pensacola area? Will be staying in Madeira Beach In September!

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Thanks for the question. I am not sure where the best is but most of the beach has great shelling. I would think in the places that arent as populated, maybe down towards Ft. Pickens? Please let me know and I can do a video on it :)

[@ThaPABproductions]

Any insight on what milks are in the area

[@Mrinternational44]

Love the videos brother keep’em coming. I’m looking to purchase around those areas. What are the tourism numbers for both places?

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Appreciate it, tourism is booming in both places

[@babychyna4]

Hey, great video 😊 I'm heavily considering coming to Pensacola for my birthday this yr. Is the beach crowded in October? Is the weather good and beach water swimmable at that time of the year?

[@giansaucedo8991]

Whats the best sea food restaurant there I’ll be there on the 26 th

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Thanks for watching and the comment. It depends on what you are looking for but we love Grand Marlin. Peg leg Pete's is great amd Native Cafe has some of the best fish tacos.

[@Killzner_Edits]

Perdido is too good man. The weather is finally getting good so we're gonna go here this weekend.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Nice

[@cadbane1980]

Perdido Key is my favorite beach. My wife's favorite beach is Pensacola Beach.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Haha, so you just share the love....thabks for watching

[@joecieslikowski9563]

What bar would you suggest for some fun nightlife near Pensacola beach?

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Sandshaker, Bamboo Willie's, the break....

[@vkaygee]

Can you tell me whether it's a good choice to stay at a condo in Bahama Bay Condos in Gulf Breeze? Mom with teens?

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Bahama bay is a great place. Short bike ride or car ride over the bridge to the beach

[@kristenjohnson638]

How busy are the beaches in January and February?

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Really not at all....

[@RandyLittlejohn-f6m]

Navarre beach is less crowded

[@NN57143]

Great video! Do you have any suggestions for middle-aged apartment dwellers? Moving in October and I'm so drawn to Pensacola?Navarre/Destin area. It's pricey!

[@c-LAW]

how many handicapp access ues the access?

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Probably a lot that's why they were put there

[@Norabeautyxoxo]

can you tell me what the weather is like there in march - april?

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Some would describe it as mildly cool with a gentle breeze. :)

[@mincerstephen9137]

One negative about Perdido Key is Gulf Beach Highway looks like the surface of the moon once you get west of Navy Blvd. Pothole after pothole after pothole.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Absolutely

[@helenaalicia6987]

You might find that to be a negative.. some of us like that as it feels off the beaten path and discourages tons of people from crowding the beaches.

[@murrayer5426]

sorrento not gulf beach, but yes

[@brucel4677]

It has been repaved

[@YoureNotChristyImChristy]

Bomber was a bonus ✈️

[@Chesney46]

No comparison perdido is way better

[@Charlesheusel62]

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.

[@FadingAway10]

Is it culturally diverse living in Pensacola? It doesn’t look like much diversity based on the people I see in the video.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

It's more culturally diverse than Phx or San Diego. Not sure what you are looking for.....

[@marcusmaynard1526]

No there's one culture there, American culture.

[@elliotbawden7205]

I live here and like it but don’t come to pcola if you think the water is crystal clear.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

It's really pretty.....thanks for watching

[@elliotbawden7205]

@@LivinginPensacolaFlorida it’s probably the best part of Florida outside of the Keys

[@elliotbawden7205]

Oh I agree. It’s is my favorite Florida city. I have Alabama next to me, I’m 6 hours from Tampa, I can go to NOLA if I want to smell urine filled streets. But too many tourists come

[@Seventeendogs]

I live in gulf breeze lol

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Sweet

[@FastWatercraft]

🤙

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Appreciate it 🤙🤙

[@neypimentel479]

Here in Brazil every all beachs are public beachs....It's forbidden private beachs..

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

obrigada....only Portuguese I know, haha

[@grabir01]

I think you have that backwards. Perdido is all public beaches. Pensacola is not.

[@wbae1340]

We never go to Pensacola, way too many people. Perdido all the way

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Love perdido;)

[@darlabates5889]

We are number one five stars sugar white Sand

[@darlabates5889]

A long time ago the Indians had that land after that the mafia come in and build casinos and they had casinos on the beach

[@michellelane5071]

The talking with gum was distracting.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Gotta have fresh breath ;)

[@LemonDropYum]

Perdido Key doesn't have lifeguards.

[@kleinster99]

We need to stop putting that information out there. Too many people and too much development already.

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

This place is growing no matter what, lol....its a hidden gem

[@thomashroberts]

The water is significantly different in Perdido Key. It’s not nearly as pretty… it’s murkier, much less of the emerald color you have in Pensacola Beach….

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Thanks for watching, I've never seen the difference and we stay in perdido a lot.

[@c-LAW]

the "Wharf " is tourist trap. Not local authehtic location. Lesson leared from experience. This channel is a sh - ill . he is a commercial promtion person ?

[@LivinginPensacolaFlorida]

Thanks for watching and the comment. The wharf is a very popular tourist spot but plenty of locals go to the amphitheater. Appreciate the kind words btw, haha

[@dallas11573]

Lol....What is an "authehtic" location anyhow?? I'm assuming you meant "Authentic" Anyhow- I digress...If you knew what you were talking about- You would understand that Orange Beach is a very high tourist area... 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...
