If you’re looking for a quick getaway or somewhere to go for Spring Break that’s relaxing, beautiful and has plenty to do, you don’t have to look very far.
Tripadvisor just released their “Travelers’ Choice Awards Best of the Best” and the best beach is right here in the Sunshine State. That title now belongs to Siesta Beach, coming in at #1 as the best beach in the entire country.
Tripadvisor says it’s based on, “Those who receive a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews and opinions from the Tripadvisor community over a 12-month period. Out of our 8 million listings, fewer than 1% achieve this milestone.”
Where exactly is Siesta Beach? It’s in the Sarasota area on Florida’s West coast between Longboat Key and Crescent Beach. From Orlando, it’s about 140 miles, will take you under 3-hours to get there to see America’s best beach.
