Recommended Beaches in the US
Oh, it’s hot. The job is tedious. Vacation
is calling. Where would you rather be than on a warm sand beach or in the
cooling water? Well, here are some great suggestions for your next beach
adventure.
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina is one of the
most well-known beaches in America. Millions of people flock here yearly for
miles of coarse sand, great fishing and a party atmosphere. In the summer
months the beach is crowded with visitors from all ages vying for the perfect
spot to view the ocean. The piers are filled with anglers looking to catch
shark and other fish. Visitors can try their hand at parasailing, ride the
waves on body boards, or just play in the water. Those who don’t want to get
wet can view pods of dolphins trolling the coast in the early mornings and late
evenings just before sunset. The Grand Strand has multiple bars and restaurants
along with an amusement park. Places like ‘The Gay Dolphin’ and ‘Wings’ offer
trinkets and t-shirts emblazoned with ‘Biker Rally 2014’ or ‘Spring Break’ for
the souvenir hunters. With annual car
shows, Harley rallies, and Canadian Polar Plunges, Myrtle beach is a year-round
destination.
Florida boast one of the most beautiful
beaches in America: St. Augustine Beach. Here, pristine ocean and powdery white
sand make an amazing vacation. St. Augustine beach has clean restrooms and
showering areas. Outside, children can play on the playground or bike down the
street to Rita’s for a frozen custard. In the city of St. Augustine, the oldest
city in America, visitors can go on ghost tours of America’s most haunted city.
Sample fiery salsa’s and candies at Pepper Palace. Eat seafood where patrons
can feed the fish as they swim below them on the waterfront at Santa Maria.
Looking for somewhere a little quieter?
About 10 minutes from St. Augustine is the community of Vilano. Vilano Beach is
a shell collectors haven with starfish and long ‘fingernail’ shells. This beach
is usually quieter and less crowded , even in summer, than St. Augustine Beach. Here you will see locals practicing yoga on
the sand in the early mornings. The Vilano Pier is a great place to snag some
fish. Sharks and bass and spades are there for the taking, if you can wrestle
them in! Vilano Beach has many vacation rental properties and few hotels- a
more family-like setting. Bring the children and the in-laws and enjoy a week
in a beautiful mansion or a beach cottage.
Key West Florida is surrounded by amazing
beaches. This island is perfect for people wanting a tropical vacation without
leaving the US. Lush palms, green iguanas along the sides of the roads and
resting on rocks, and yes- gorgeous beaches.
Come and snorkel in the clear waters. Get married under bird-of-paradise
flocked arches. See the historic buildings along the port.
Grab some flip-flops, sunscreen and a
smile. These fantastic beaches and many more are waiting for you today!
