Recs for quiet Florida gulf beach?

The wife wants to stay away from the busy touristy locations so I’m trying to figure out where some quieter, less populated beaches may be on the Florida’s gulf coast (preferably panhandle if possible but willing to look at peninsula too).

Cape San Blas or St. George Island.

Went to Navarre in 2023 and it was super quiet. Not sure if that has changed since.

Sanibel / Captiva in the summer when all the snow birds are gone

St. George Island is perfect for what you are looking for.

Ditto on St. George beach with a hind base in old hotel in Apalachicola and stops in between.

St George is great if you want quiet and away from everything. Its not that great if you just don't want busy tourists.
Summers almost over OP, a lot of places along the gulf coast quiet down quite a bit in early August through the Fall.

It's Cape San Blas. There are mornings or sunsets when there aren't 4 people on the Beach. No beach chairs set up in the am like a church, no high-rises, no McDonalds. Only dog friendly beach that I know of in Florida. Close enough to Appalatchicola or Port St Joe for great food or beverages. Been renting on the cape for more than a dozen years.

Same place or different locations?

Indian Rocks Beach. About 15 minutes south of Clearwater Beach and yeah, there’s restaurants on the backside of the beach but once you get into your Airbnb, it’s functionally a private beach

If you go to St George Island please stop at Paddys raw bar. I grew up with Pat and jessica and have known them (pat specifically) most of my life. Die hard bama fans but that's ok. They've got a great setup there and you'll have a good time.

I stayed in Mexico Beach last October. It’s small and quiet. No hi rise condos. There’s not much to do but hang out on the beach. Only a handful of restaurants. It’s a 20 minute drive to Port St Joe, a cool little old Florida town with some good bars and restaurants.

Pensacola Beach. Go to the west to Gulf Islands National Seashore/Ft Pickens. Six miles of beach with no structure on it. Bring food and water.
