The problem with living on the coast is instead of 360 degrees of travel options by car you only have 180* or so. So yes fewer options OP, and the geography in the south is not as diverse as some other areas for sure. It is what it is.

It’s actually one of the big reasons I left NOLA. Sure NOLA is great but there’s genuinely nothing around it. Nothing else in Louisiana or the lower 2/3 of Alabama and Mississippi. Nothing in Arkansas except for the Ozarks in NW Arkansas. Dallas and Houston aren’t really tourist cities and while there is San Antonio and the Hill Country that’s more than 6 hours away.
NOLA when you think about it really is isolated. I second the recommendation that there are some great state parks in the Florida Panhandle. De Leon Springs, Florida Caverns State Park, Torreya State Park and even Wakulla Springs and Alfred Maclay Gardens as you go east into Tallahassee.
Florida Caverns and Torreya are still recovering from Hurricane Michael but are still good places to visit. There’s genuinely more to Florida than just the beach and 30a.
