I've been going there for over 25 years and I spend about 4 to 6 weeks a year there. It's just important not to go during spring break or the 4th of July! I live in GA and would steer you clear of it. The beaches are not very pretty, the water is always murky, and the waves can be a pain (especially if you want to fish). The Gulf is where you want to be. Crystal clear water and is usually calm. As cape said, St George is great and is not far either. The Florida panhandle is so great that you just can't go wrong really.
