One Suncoast visitor and retired chief warrant officer brought his family down from Orlando to spend the holiday weekend on the Suncoast.

“We didn’t bring a grill, so they got a great special on the already cooked and prepared rack of barbeque ribs and we’re going to take advantage of that. I bought me a couple racks of that. We heading to the beach and catch some sun rays,” said Hector Ahorrio

He and his family normally visit the beaches along St. Pete but decided to go somewhere new this year and are loving the Suncoast beaches.
