Good airports to fly into in Florida?

[grantrobarts]

I'm going for a scenic cross country tomorrow with a fellow pilot. We've got a C182T Nav III for the entire day tomorrow.

Any good recommendations on some nice airports to explore, or eat lunch at? I was maybe considering going to the Panhandle. I'm over here in KDAB.

If you like Sushi, fly to Naples, APF. Ask the cute chicks at the counter where the good local Sushi place is. I can't remember the name, but it is close to the Red Lobster. Anyways, its the biggest pieces of sushi you will ever get.

No, I fly that one too, but it's always booked solid so I am flying Air America Flight Center's 182.

Thanks for the suggestions so far guys.

Fly into Albert Whitted in St. Pete, its right on the water downtown. There's a pier within walking distance it has a great outdoor restaurant that overlooks the runway and bay.

Definitely Albert Whited. Lots of scenery over there.

You could do DAB..SPG..APF..EYW..VRB..DAB.

The weather down here is gonna be awesome tomorrow. Have fun!

Everglades (X01) is a fun airport to go into. Cross City is also fun as long as the bar is still there where you can buy the pig a beer.

APF- Good sushi place is called BLUE SUSHI

Naples has that good ribs place as well.

(APF) That would be Michelbob's. Kick-ass BBQ anything. We give free rides over there, just ask the people at the front counter for a ride if the crew car isn't available (which is also free).
