Beach holidays US

The USA is a huge country to explore, flanked by two oceans and covering an incredibly varied terrain for beach holidays. Perhaps the most suitable place for a beach holiday is Florida. Its gorgeous Gulf Coast is rightly known for its pristine, award-winning, white sandy beaches, beautiful sunsets and its abundance of wildlife.

Cocoa Beach has 16 beautiful and spacious beaches and beachfront parks; there’s the Canaveral National Seashore (Playalinda Beach), for example, with its 24-mile long stretch of undeveloped beach. The Jetty Park offers a fishing pier and an expansive beach. The Cocoa Beach Pier is a historic landmark and a popular place to go surfing or sunbathing. Depending on the beach, a wide range of watersports, from swimming, surfing and boogie boarding, to parasailing, jet-skiing and fishing are available.

If you are planning to spend your beach holiday in Florida, you got a fantastic choice of whether you want to laze next to the Atlantic coast or the Gulf of Mexico. The Clearwater and Tampa areas, on Florida’s west coast, are entwined together and holidaymakers can spend their time visiting Clearwater’s beaches, enjoying the seafront resorts before heading over to Tampa with its post-modern architecture.
