What to do and see in Pensacola, Florida (FL): The Best Outdoor Activities

August 14, 2021 Claudia Navarrete

If you're looking for some great Florida beaches but aren't necessarily interested in a mega-resort or theme park atmosphere, Pensacola might just be the place for your perfect weekend. Home to Gulf Islands National Seashore, the city offers some of the best fishing and boating in the area. Inland, canoeing enthusiasts won't want to miss the beauty of the Blackwater River. Closer to town, the city has a proud military heritage, which can be seen at attractions like the National Museum of Naval Aviation and the Pensacola Naval Air Station.

Tradition Fishing Charters

Tradition Fishing Charters was started out of a lifelong passion for fishing by Captain Miles Howell. Capt. Miles started fishing with his Dad at a very young age, competing and winning in local tournaments. Miles then started working as a deckhand in the local charter fleet while in high school. Capt. Miles quickly learned that he had a knack for showing people a good time on the water and enjoyed helping them catch fish. This was the beginning of what is now an expanding family business.

I rented a Sportster for a day. Paperwork was done in 10 minutes. Got a thorough checkout on controls & operation, and was on my way for a nice ride with a friend on a beautiful Pensacola day.
