The Best Beaches in Florida

Crowned “America’s Best Beach,” Sarasota’s Siesta Key Beach boasts the finest quartz sand in the world. After a $21 million revamp, the public beach looks better than ever, sporting concessions, picnic shelters and a playground. The island’s 40-acre beach park is exceptionally wide and long, providing ample space for families, romantics, and Sunday’s Drum Circle celebration.
