Visiting Florida after major hurricanes

Wednesday, December 4, 2024
BRADENTON, Fla. (WLS) -- A very popular tourist destination along Florida's Gulf Coast Bradenton, and surrounding islands like Anna Maria and Longboat Key were slammed by not one, but 2 major storms this hurricane season.

And while there was damage, much of the region, it turns out, was unscathed, or has totally reopened.

Travelzoo's Senior Editor Gabe Saglie joined ABC7 from Bradenton to talk about the beaches back open and what businesses are welcoming back guests.
