Your guide to the best sand, sun and surf in Florida

Endless days filled with sand, sun and surf is our idea of the perfect Florida vacation. But Florida beaches are as varied as the more than 80 million people who visit each year - and there's something here for everyone.

Florida Beaches Guide to the Best BeachesFlorida Beaches Guide to the Best BeachesDo you prefer secluded shores over party crowds? Are you a theme park junkie or a closet nudist? Or maybe your perfect beach is balanced with great shopping or picture perfect reefs for snorkeling and scuba diving?

A visit to Florida is as American as apple pie at Thanksgiving. Florida is the winner of a multitude of tourism awards, including the most media-friendly state in 2006 by the North American Travel Journalists association. And American, Canadian and overseas travelers who visit are serious about their vacation - they stay for an average of 9 nights. There are more hotel rooms in Orlando alone than any other American city.

GoGirlfriend has surfed through Florida beaches so you can spend your vacation surfing the waves, not the Internet. Whether you're hunting for a fun-filled family getaway or a romantic beach wedding, our Florida Beaches Guide helps you compare your beach options quickly and easily.

No matter what's on your beachy wish-list, there's a beach here for you. Start clicking on the links below to kick your Florida vacation planning into high gear.

Too true. Whats the deal with Americans and nude beaches? There are a few beaches in the Caribbean that make the trip their very worthwhile. I like florida and I too am disappointed naturism and nudism is so frowned upon.

Unfortunately the appalling

Unfortunately the appalling lack of naturist beaches throughout the USA and the prejudice that naturists face means that this naturist will not be visiting Florida again. In all other respects we enjoyed our holiday, despite a hurricane, but beach after beach without being able to dress sensibly is very frustrating. We will not be back.

  • On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Julia Rosien said "Great to meet you as well, Terri. And yes, we adore the Bay of Fundy :-) While I'll agree it's no longer parka weather in your neck of the woods, it's not quite string bikini weather either. Shall we toast to it and let the beer warm us up? Happy St Paddy's Day! Julia"

  • On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Terri said "hey Travel girls, great to hear that you love our Bay of Fundy here on the east coast of Canada as much as you love Tim Horton's ...and, as a Bay of Fundy chick, I love the green tide analogy. For sure, there will be lots of fun times down here around St Paddy's day but I just want to send you a correction to say you certainly won't be needing a parka? to visit at this time of year. It's +8 to +10 degress Celius (that's in the 50s F for our American friends) - definitely well above parka weather. haha So nice that the birds are chirping and the maple sap is flying out of the trees and, ultimately, on to our pancakes. Happy spring! Terri the Bay of Fundy blogger bayoffundy.blogspot.com "

  • On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Sad and heavy heart said "On a note about the roads of Totrola which are steep, and windy and narrow, all the more reason that tour vehicles should have regular safety checks, SEATBELTS (which dirvers should mandate use or not allow passengers to continue with the tour, driver's should go slow, and Princess Cruise Lines should do extensive background checks, and not hire people with the nick-name of Crash-Dummy."

  • On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Jan said "We were also on the ship with our friends, had spent the day at the beach in Tortola where the slider on my Omega came off, "broke" and lost. I had just purchased it on board the ship the day prior. But nothing can compare to the loss of a family member. The Captain had everyones attention for the announcement. Captain Draper done a great job informing the passengers of the accident. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rumphrey family."
