The beaches in the US are one of the main reasons why it is a popular tourist destination for many Brits. We are going to take a look at some of the best ones you should visit but before then, it is important to emphasis on the need to ensure you have a valid ESTA visa waiver before you proceed with your plans to visit the US. The ESTA is an important document you need to possess as a visitor to the US coming from a location that doesn’t need a visa.
Manele Bay, Hawaii
Located on the Lana’I Island, this is undoubtedly one of the most perfect stretches of sand in the world. The beach overlooks a marine preservation that is filled with very colourful fish and the occasional spinner dolphin. The snorkelling and diving spots here are also considered to be some of the finest in Hawaii making the 70-degree water very tempting.
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
This is ultimate vacation hub in the East Coast. The town is one that sees a lot of action in the summer. There are amusement parks and water parks, restaurants and live entertainment and of course, beaches lining the Grand Strand. The actual beach here is an extensive stretch of silky white sand. It is the place to be for sunbathing, swimming, sailing and surfing.
Nantucket, Massachusetts
You remember all those fairy tale lands Disney fed us as kids? This is the closest thing to them. Nantucket is set against a bright blue backdrop of ocean and bay in a community dotted with white cottages surrounded by wild roses. The community is a former whaling community and has a beach for virtually everyone including children. All of the beaches feature calm waters and sandcastles.
Kauna’oa Bay, Hawaii
Majority of the pictures of Hawaii you will find on posters and calendars are of this bay. Located on the Kohala Coast of the Big Island, it is a very picturesque location. It has an abundance of white sand, palm trees and clear calm blue water, as well as a crescent-shaped beach. It is a natural attraction for sun lovers, water sport enthusiasts and families looking for safe and sandy fun.
Clearwater Beach, Florida
It’s almost impossible to count the number of families and couples that have been drawn to the sandy shores and beach front hotels here. The beach is spread along a narrow, 3-mile stretch of the Pinellas Peninsula on the Gulf Coast. Clearwater beach straddles the blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico to the west and the quiet Tampa Bay to the east.
Coronado Central Beach
Swimmers, whale watchers, boogie boarders, sand sculptors and tide poolers love this beach. It is the least busy of the beaches mentioned here but it is not in any way less beautiful!
With any of these beaches, you can be sure to have a swell time while out in America.
