Absolutely, Panama City Beach, FL !!!!!!! In the Panhandle. Its definately
geared toward the young, hotel jobs are a dime a dozen. And its an
inexpensive place to live, depending on how you want to live
Good Luck and have fun.

Maybe Corpus Cristi, Miami, or Jacksonville... Hawaii's cost of living is bad due to the isolation.

Go to the beach cities of LA and you can enjoy being a beach bum while also working at a decent job. Hotel jobs and fast food get old, man. Redondo Beach and Hermosa Beach are a lot of fun, and you can find roommate situations pretty easily through the local papers.

Somewhere on the Gulf, east of the Mississippi you'll find the countries most beautiful beaches.

If you really want to try out the beach bum lifestyle, here's a thought. They have a really cool brewery in Dewey Beach, DE. I think it's called Dogfish. Anyway, the people who worked there seemed pretty friendly and also into the whole beach scene. Maybe you could google them, send an e-mail and ask for some advice.

Lodging's probably reasonable in the winter, too. The who Delmarva beach area pretty much shuts down after October.

So I don't know what to do from then on. Thats my [SIZE=3]dilemma.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=3]I need to travel around and find some summer specials, I guess. If any state would have summer specials. I know South Florida peak season is in the winter and the off season is the summer. So maybe the panhandle is the opposite, with an off season in the winter and a peak season in the summer. So perhaps I could travel south to Miami or the Keys in the summer.[/SIZE]
Aw, buddy. Look around. 750-1200 a month isn't that great a deal. You can probably find a real apartment for less than that.
