I do not want to book hotels in the Bahamas without palm trees at the beach like Radisson at Cable Beach or Atlantis on Paradise Island.
Which beaches are nicer - those in Florida or in the Bahamas?
Dr. Beach, a.k.a. Dr. Stephen P. Leatherman, has been researching beaches for the past 20 years, studying beach erosion and storm impacts. In 1989, he developed 50 criteria to rate each beach, and it took him two years to complete the survey of the 650 major public recreational beaches in the United States. His first "Best Beaches" list was released on Memorial Day weekend in 1991
Since 1991, Dr. Leatherman has released the list of America's Best Beaches on Memorial Day weekend, marking the beginning of beach season. His ratings have become a regular feature of the morning TV shows as well as newspaper and magazine articles. You can also order his latest book, "America's Best Beaches."

Positions
2. Fort De Soto Park, FL
4. Caladesi Island State Park, FL
7. Crescent Beach, Siesta Key, FL
9. Cape Florida State Park, FL
And staying in the US is much cheaper. From my point of view the US dollar has a value of 50 cents in the bahamas only - specially due to high taxes and high stealing rate.
Does anybody know those above mentioned beaches? I need a lot of palm trees!
Thanks  |
