What September feels like
September is the busiest month of the storm season and the cheapest month on the beach, a trade the regulars make happily. Red tide sometimes drifts along this stretch in late summer; when it does, the county posts beach conditions daily and everybody checks.
Rain arrives about 9 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans. Full tropical humidity: mornings are your friend, and shade is currency. about 17 afternoons top 90°.
Can you swim?
The Gulf runs about 86° — bath-warm.
