I am considering going to Florida since that a short plane ride and warm weathers.
Want to stay next to the beach. I am looking at the map of Florida and wondering why most people go to Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Sunny Isles, Boca ...Any other hidden gem that wont be packed that I can rather go to in Florida? What about Tampa, Fort Myers? Why havent I heard of people going elsewhere?

Ormond beach has a kosher restaurant. It was advertised on a facebook group and looked nice. Its an hour from orlando.

For me it's because of the kosher food.

I did Boca. Actually Boynton Beach and minyan and food in Boca.

Quieter.

Lots of kosher food options. Not too far if you want to go to Aventura/North Miami.

The reason is because people want kosher food . Simple as that.

There’s boca, Hollywood, sunny Isles, Fort Lauderdale …
If you rent a car you can drive a few minutes for food. I plan on going to one of those places in a few days.

Florida is a huge state. Not all of it has kosher restaurants, or even minyanim. People want to go where they have the conveniences of frum life available.

We usually stay at a beach resort about 45 minutes from boca and 45 minutes from
Hollywood. Close enough to go out to dinner but no Jews. (There are minyanim tho)

People stay in those places because of culture food. I have a property in Port St. Lucie, and I go there sometimes but it's an hour from kosher food.
