Discover what makes Cape San Blas the perfect winter escape for snowbirds from the Midwest
Cape San Blas offers average winter temperatures in the 60s and 70s — ideal for beach walks, fishing, kayaking, or just soaking in Gulf Coast sunsets while your friends back home shovel snow. The mild climate makes it possible to enjoy the outdoors every day, whether you're sipping coffee on the deck, biking along Cape San Blas Road, or reading a good book on the beach.
Unlike busier spots like Destin or Panama City Beach, SeaCliffs is quiet and private, making it perfect for longer stays. The gated entrance adds security, and the community pool, boardwalks, and green spaces make it feel like home. You'll see familiar faces as other snowbirds return each season, creating a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.
The Salty Mermaid has 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and an elevator for easy access to all floors — perfect for couples traveling together or hosting visiting family. Gulf views from decks on every level allow you to enjoy sunrises with your coffee and sunsets with your favorite drink. The fully stocked kitchen makes home-cooked meals easy, and plenty of beach gear is included so you can pack light.
Port St. Joe is just 20 minutes away for groceries, medical care, restaurants, and shopping. Local favorites like the Cape Trading Post make it easy to grab last-minute items or a bottle of wine without leaving the Cape. This combination of quiet seclusion and convenient access to services is what keeps snowbirds coming back year after year.
Cape San Blas offers excellent value compared to other Florida winter destinations. Snowbirds can take advantage of discounted monthly rates and save even more by booking direct — no hidden fees, no extra OTA costs. Your money goes further here, giving you a more luxurious, less crowded experience for the same budget.
