We stay in Buttonwood Inlet RV Resort in Cortez, it's about an hour south of Tampa.
Sure we have cool days but generally it warms up pretty quick and we wear shorts all winter.
We usually swim from late October when we get there up to the new year, sure January can be iffy almost anyplace in the state but we usually have many beach days. We have even had a couple of winters where we still were in the Gulf in Jan and Feb too.
My point being that every winter is different, some are better than others but every winter we are down there is better than anything New York has to offer.
