America's Best Beach

This is slightly more travel-related than property-related, but I still thought I'd comment on it. After all, you could very well own a holiday home near one of America's top beaches - just imagine how fantastic that would be!

Florida International University professor Stephen P. Leatherman, also known as "Dr Beach", has announced his top ten list of the best beaches in the United States. Three Florida beaches made the top ten, including Caladesi Island (near Tampa) which was proclaimed the best beach in the country. The relative remoteness of the beach helped it hit the top spot in the list; the island is a state park and can only be reached by ferry or private boat.

All in all, sounds lovely - I should pay a visit one day soon!

The other two Florida beaches that made the list were Siesta Beach in Sarasota and Cape Florida State Park near Miami.

As anyone who's visited the state will know, Florida has an abundance of beautiful beaches. You don't have to be located near to one of the above to enjoy the glorious sea, sand and sun.
