These 6 Florida Beaches Are The Best In The U.S. According To Trip Advisor
Clearwater Beach
Clearwater was voted as one of the best in the United States AGAIN. 12,836 travelers have reviewed Clearwater beach! I have also been there and I love it. It’s for sure a vibe and great for spring break (if you can handle the big crowds).
Highlighted by that view of Pier 60 leading into the Gulf of Mexico, Clearwater Beach is a highly recognizable Florida destination.
Siesta Beach
8,552 travelers have reviewed this beach on trip advisor. If you have not been there yet, you should go check it out. Last year, it was named one of the most beautiful white sand beaches in America.
Hollywood Beach
6,789 travelers have reviewed Hollywood Beach on trip advisor and it’s one of the best beaches in the U.S. Since it’s on the other coast of Florida, I have not been yet but will check it out. Many reviews say try the food.
Panama City Beach
No surprise that Panama city beach has been voted one of the best beaches in the United States. 6,607 travelers have reviewed this beach on trip advisor. I went here on spring break once and had a great time!
Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park
Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park is located in the Florida Keys, so no wonder it made Trip Advisor’s list. I’m surprised it wasn’t ranked higher since the Keys are known to have the best beaches and attractions.
Fort Lauderdale Beach
9.307 people have reviewed this beach on trip advisor. I have been here and the food options are great on this beach. I think it’s just as fun as heading down to Miami. But be careful, they do have a lot of tourist traps.
