What to pack

What July feels like

July nights are when this place actually socializes: fireworks over the bay, jetty fishing after dark, shrimp shacks with a line out the door at ten. Almost nobody walks the open sand at midday more than once.

Real rain shows up about 3 days all month; the rest stay dry. Full tropical humidity: mornings are your friend, and shade is currency. Most afternoons push past 90°.

Can you swim?

The Gulf runs about 82° — bath-warm.
