Tell Us About Your Best Florida Beach…
What’s the best Florida beach? Well, it depends on who you ask!
Ask a snorkeling family, they may tell you Bahia Honda State Park. Ask a surfer, she may tell you Cocoa Beach. Ask a shelling enthusiast, and he may say that Sanibel Island is the best Florida beach.You get the idea. It’s all a matter of opinion!
Florida is all about beaches! Each one is unique and beautiful, each with its own character, causing each of us to have a favorite.
If you have a funny story, a favorite memory of a Florida beach vacation, or an amazing spot to watch a beautiful sunset, tell us about it. We’d love to hear your story, and so would our other readers. You can drop us a line on our contact page, or in the comment section below.





Ft. Myers Beach and my first winter in Florida…
When I was 9 years old, my family moved to Cape Coral, Florida, not far from Ft. Myers Beach.
Since we moved here in June, we had some time to adjust by the time December rolled around. My mom realized that my brother and I had never had a Christmas without snow. Since Florida doesn’t really get too cold, it was easy to find a day near Christmas that we could go to the beach.
When we got to Ft. Myers Beach, my mom suggested all the usual, fun, winter things to do, for example: making sand angels, attempting a sand ball fight, and of course, building a sand man. We hesitated at first because it was obviously not the same thing as snow. She said that it was Florida snow and we could still have a lot of fun with it.
At that point, we started making the sand angels and realized that she was right! By the time we got around to making the sand man, my brother and I felt completely at home again.
Who knew that with a little quick thinking and creativity, you could bring a little bit of northern winter with you to Florida!
Kind Regards,
Shirley
Shirley,
Thanks so much for sharing such a nice story!
We really must try making a “sand” angel the next time we visit the beach!
Sincerely,
