Sunscreen is important, the sun is very powerful down in Florida and when you're on the beach all day getting drunk you don't want to regret the sunburn later.

If you don't like lines buy a VIP pass to Spinnakers, because that will get you in the place in 2 seconds. They're only like $60, and good for the whole week. I personally hate standing in line for an hour. Also Spinnakers says they open at 7 pm, rarely do they. It is often 7:30. You might not think this is a big deal but if you're in the back of the line with 250 people in it and they take their sweet *** time checking ID's like they always do your 2 free hours of drinks from 7-9 just turned into a half hour.

The back entrance to Harpoon Harry's is often much faster than the front.

Hawaiian leis work very well, as good as mardi gras beads.

Pick up your trash on the beach!!!! There is a reason they have a million trash cans around.

Get yourself some vitamins and energy drinks for the week. They will help keep your immune system from getting drained and will help keep your energy up.

Take naps.

Girls: wear thongs, not the sandals.
