AAA reports that the state’s gas prices have declined 31 cents per gallon over the past 30 days, including 7 cents per gallon over the past week.

On Sunday, Florida drivers paid an average price of $3.41 per gallon, although drivers in some regions are finding prices in the $3.20s or lower.

“It’s looking like Florida drivers will spend a dollar per gallon less for gasoline than they did last Memorial Day weekend,” said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA - The Auto Club Group. “The state average should trickle even lower this week. However, even if pump prices do suddenly rise this week, it’s unlikely it’d be by a large enough margin that Floridians would change their plans, since most travel plans have already been finalized by now.”

The most expensive metro markets are currently West Palm Beach-Boca Raton ($3.66), Naples ($3.55), and Miami ($3.52).

The least expensive metro markets are Panama City ($3.14), Crestview-Fort Walton Beach ($3.16), and Pensacola ($3.22).
