Really Florida!

Here are the Florida vacation ideas that I’ve posted so far, and today here’s a new idea.  What does Florida have more of than almost any other state? If you guessed beaches, you’re right!

The Beach Is Calling

When people think of Florida, the top two things they think about are theme parks and beaches.  So, let’s check out the beach!

Actually, the Florida beaches were an attraction in their own right before the attractions showed up.  That’s what people came to Florida for — the sun, sand and sea.

Fast forward, and things have changed some.  A lot of beaches now have all kinds of “beach toys” concessions and rides, etc.  On the more popular beaches, you may see a lot of this.

Still, there are quieter beaches as well, where the sound of the surf is louder than most anything else.

Now I’m not your sunbathing type; I prefer to be either people-watching or looking for interesting shells, sealife, birds, etc. And there are beaches for both. For when you want to be alone with nature on a quiet beach. When you want to people-watch on a crowded beach. Or even when you just want to play with “beach toys” !

To add to your vacation ideas, here’s a list of some of the best beaches in Florida, for your perusal.  The list covers activity beaches, quiet beaches.  Beaches for snorkeling, surfing and families.

So go out and about — use these Florida vacation ideas (the beaches) as a place to start and explore.  Who knows what treasures you will uncover!
