I Love Lido Beach!

by Anonymous
(Miami, Florida)

I actually had the opportunity to go with my family to this wonderful beach.

I was impressed!

I'm from Miami and when I saw this beach I stood with my mouth open for like 10 seconds. I couldn't believe how beautiful this beach was.

I recommend everyone take a break and go to this astonishing beach!

Turtle Beach is My Favorite Family Beach

by Darryl of Sarasota
(Sarasota, FL)

We've been going to Turtle beach for nearly 20 years. You can almost always find us there picnicking on 4th of July weekend.

We like the shady picnic area, plenty of free parking, seashells in the surf, and the family atmosphere.

There is a playground and sand volleyball court right next to the restrooms.

Plenty of birds to watch and enjoy.

Sunsets at BEAN POINT - Anna Maria Island Beach

by Marcia
(Chicago, IL)

White sand...honeymooners...voted "best" location to view gorgeous sunsets.

Couples search for romantic sites to say their wedding vows and MANY find BEAN POINT their final destination.

Located on the far end of Anna Maria Island Beach just off Bradenton, FL, this romantic site is within walking distance of a popular pier and one of the top restaurants in the area - The Sandbar.

Both outdoor and indoor entertainment make this restaurant "the place to be."

Must see Bean Point at Sunset to believe it!

I Love Casey Key Beach (in Nokomis)

by T. S.
(Nokomis, FL)

My favorite beach is Casey Key Beach. That is where I met my husband.

Actually, before I met him, I had met and gone out with 2 or 3 other guys from that beach.

Finally, I landed the 'Big Fish.'

We have been married now for over 3 years and still enjoy going to that particular beach to reminisce about how we met.

So, if you're looking for that special someone, give the beach a try!

Good luck fishing...

Siesta Key

by Rosario's
(North Port, FL)

I fell in love with Siesta Key back in 2000 when my husband and I came for a visit.

I was in awe with the white, silk like sand.

We told our family and friends and they too have traveled from New England to visit Siesta Key.

We all agree that in the south, Siesta Key is the best beach.
