Virtual buggying courtesy of Google

Seems google has added street view to much of the north florida coastline, and I imagine elsewhere.

Checkout the view from the end of the beach at my favorite local spot, Anastasia State Park.

You can virtually buggy the whole beach. Go ahead and take a ride :-)

Pretty cool. How far can you run on that beach?

Wow, I've wanted to go there,... now I REALLY want to go there...

About 3 miles or so in total. A pier and law enforcement prevent you from going further south. That said, there's never anyone on the beach save a couple lone folks who make the long walk or bike out there. 100 feet past the last boardwalk and the beach is yours until you hit the water again.

I would say if, but instead, I'll say when ;-) When you come down, give a shout and I'll try and join you. Always fun with more kites in the air.
