Marco Beach
10 Lena Lockwood

This stunning beach and its facilities are truly breathtaking! ⛱ I have been a regular visitor from the North for years, and I can confidently say that this place is my ultimate happy place on earth. The picturesque sunsets make for perfect photo opportunities, and my kids absolutely adore this beach too. The immaculate grooming of the beach ensures that the white sandy shores are always pristine and inviting.

Tigertail beach
10 Amber Yarlington

The beach is amazing! There is a parking lot available for a fee, and they have a beautiful playground and bathroom facilities. We strolled around the lagoon all the way to the ocean, as we were informed that it was the perfect spot for finding sand dollars. However, despite walking for miles along the beach, I only managed to find fragments of sand dollars. We plan to visit again but at a different time of day to increase our chances of finding whole ones.

Naples beach
10 Ava Rodriguez Hernandez

What a breathtaking beach! The fireworks show was out of this world, I mean, I've seen a lot of fireworks in my life, but this one was hands down the best. The place was swarming with people on Independence Day, but we managed to secure a cozy spot to lounge and soak up the sun.

Keewaydin Island beach
10 Maxwell Jameson

This beach is just another overhyped tourist trap. Sure, you can rent a boat or take a ferry, but good luck finding a spot on the crowded shore to even set up your towel. The constant noise from boats tailgating is enough to make your head spin, and don't even get me started on the overpriced food and ice cream being peddled from a boat. The only thing remotely cool about this place is the temperature of the water, but even that can't make up for the lack of peace and quiet.
