Pensacola Beach Bay Area Ready for Snowbirds
Excerpt from Pensacola News Journal, Dec 27, 2007, Craig Proctor
"Pensacola Bay Area tourism officials are hoping the annual influx of snowbirds expected to begin arriving in January and February will set the stage for another strong season in 2008. By most accounts, the 2007 tourist seasons for the Pensacola Beach and Navarre Beach areas were the strongest since Hurricane Ivan. Early indications, based on the number of inquiries and advance bookings by visitors from key Northern states, point toward another robust year ahead."
Johnston said low short-term rental rates, the mild weather and road and beach improvements completed recently are all helping to boost occupancy and visitation by out-of-region visitors. "We get a pretty good showing from Canada," she noted. "It's our top international destination, with Germany, France and England in that order."
With the American dollar down in the dumps, the Canadians are coming our way. With my CIPS, Certified International Property Specialist, designation, I am very excited about the influx of our northern neighbors.
