I’ll be in Florida around Tampa and the surrounding areas. I’m wondering if anyone has any info on spots to check out. On a kite it looks like there’s going to be some days of win along the west coast and near Tallahassee. Any info is greatly appreciated! I have a vehicle so am able to hit different spots.

You'll find some info here with search. It's a good time of year for wind. In my experience, the wind patterns in FLA tend to clock around so be ready to find the right launch for the direction of the day.

It was amazing today, 20 mph & beautiful waves! Only problem is you never know when the next good day will be.

The nice thing about the Tampa area is that there are kite beaches for every wind direction.

My folks lived in Naples for many years... condolences on your purgatory!
IIRC MonkeyBoy told tales of butter sessions there scored in years past, somehow.
