You need to get away from it all. You pick a quiet spot on the sand and dive into a good beach read. You wear sunscreen, sarongs and straw hats. You really do enjoy long walks on the beach. Your perfect dinner is a candlelit table for two on a breezy Gulf-front patio. You drink wine and order the key lime pie. You’re a culture enthusiast. You’ll meander in and out of beach shops, picking up local treasures along the way. You treat yourself to a day at the spa and a sunset sail. PCB is your escape from the everyday. You’re a: Soul Surfer.
