Florida Gulf Coast

Take a week this winter and swap the cold and snow for the warm, sandy beaches of Florida’s Gulf Coast. Described as the “Forgotten Coast,” this tour visits some of the most pristine beaches in America, along with other coastal and inland landscapes. We’ll even carry your belongings so you can enjoy your Sunshine State getaway unburdened by gear. 

We’ll camp on barrier islands among white dunes and endless beaches populated by pelicans, cormorants, and ibis. Inland we’ll witness how eons of geologic and hydrologic forces have formed sinkholes, upwelling springs, and caves. We’ll also learn that Florida is not entirely flat, especially in the north-central section where the gently rolling pine-covered hills of Georgia extend down toward the Gulf. So shake off the cold, grab your bike, and join us for a winter trip of terrific cycling in a place where you can warm those frozen toes.
