More Best Beaches For …
Florida vacation beach house rental and Best Beach for
Shelling:
Sanibel Island
(800-237-6444, www.FortMyers-Sanibel.com)
With more than 400 varieties of shells, Sanibel Island is so popular with shell seekers that it holds an
annual three-day Sanibel Shell Fair and Show in the spring and has a name for the shell seeker's posture:
"The Sanibel Stoop." Sanibel is equally respected for its beauty and the community's commitment to
preserving it.
Florida vacation beach house rental and Best Beach to Find Sharks Teeth:
Venice Beach
(800-522-9799, www.sarasotafl.org)
Venice Beach is the spot for finding fossilized shark's teeth from thousands of years ago. The beach
concessionaire even rents out metal mesh scoops to aid in the process. Small teeth, the size of a
Chihuahua's, are easy to find while walking along the shoreline and larger teeth by snorkeling along a
ridge just offshore.
Florida vacation beach house rental and Best Beach to Be Pampered:
Ponte Vedra Beach
(800-653-2489, www.getaway4florida.com)
Ponte Vedra Inn and Club is one of the best places to find delicious spa treatments along a Florida beach.
The resort sits on a beach lined with high dunes and towering palms. The roaring surf makes for
exhilarating body surfing or a comforting bedtime song after a day of pampering.
Florida vacation beach house rental and Best Place to Feel Small:
Canaveral National Seashore
(321-267-1110, www.nps.gov/cana)
The Canaveral National Seashore, 24 miles of undeveloped coast, is lined with dunes, beaches and a range
of wildlife. It's not unusual to see a blue heron on the seashore while a bald eagle soars over the
shoulder-high marsh grasses. Bordering Kennedy Space Center, the seashore may also allow you to glimpse
an equally astounding flight.
Florida vacation beach house rental and Best Snorkeling Beach:
Dry Tortugas
(800-352-5397, www.fla-keys.com)
For colorful fish and living coral reefs, pack your snorkeling gear and head to the Dry Tortugas National
Park, about 70 miles west of Key West, reachable by ferry or seaplane, but well worth the trip. This
cluster of seven islands, made of coral and sand, includes Garden Key, home to historic Fort Jefferson.
Florida vacation beach house rental and Best Beach for a Getaway:
St. George Island
(850-653-9419, www.apalachicolabay.org)
A remote beach that comes with the comforts of Southern cooking, personal service, rocking chairs and a
view of the Gulf, the St. George Inn is a quaint inn with double-decker verandas only minutes from what
may be the most uninhabited beach in Florida, Dr. Julian G. Bruce St. George Island State Park.
Florida vacation beach house rental and Best Boardwalk Beach:
Hollywood Beach Broadwalk
(800-22-SUNNY, www.sunny.org)
An Atlantic City-type boardwalk, the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk, just south of Fort Lauderdale, is a
2.5-mile-long, 27-foot-wide concrete promenade bordered by shops, hotels, game rooms, taverns and an
outdoor amphitheater. Often live music competes with the surf. The beach is certified as "Blue Wave" for
its outstanding cleanliness and safety.
Florida vacation beach house rental and Best Beach for Romance:
Lovers Key
(800-237-6444, www.FortMyers-Sanibel.com)
On Lovers Key, explore the mangrove wilds of the west coast Florida by kayak or foot in Lovers Key State
Park. Lounge beside a waterfall in a lagoon-style pool at the Lovers Key Beach Club & Resort, a posh
all-suite resort. At sunset, dine overlooking Estero Bay. Soak in the spa tub-for-two in your suite.
