Florida is ringed with gorgeous, sugar-sand beaches, many of which are great for year-round travel opportunities. In winter, especially in the southern parts of the state, you’ll find plenty of warm, sunny weather perfect for sitting on the sand or diving into the water.
Here are the top 5 to visit.
Key West
A bit of a no-brainer, Key West offers a tropical atmosphere with plenty of opportunities for travelers interested in history and literature, as well as food and nightlife.
Siesta Key
One of the best beaches on the Gulf side of Florida, this spot is great for watersports — you can rent a catamaran or kayak right on the beach — and collecting sea shells.
South Beach
This Miami hotspot draws international visitors for its nightlife and pristine beaches. This is a happening spot, so go with an eye toward partying and being seen.
Del Ray Beach
Family-friendly and charming, this area also boasts Atlantic Avenue, with boutiques and restaurants that offer great after-dark draws.
Sanibel Beach
On the Gulf side near Cape Coral, this barrier island is a prime spot for shell gathering, and you’ll find scores of beauties fully intact. One must-stop place is Bowman’s Beach, which is quiet and remote and boasts a historic lighthouse.
