THOUGHTFUL BEACH
As you walk over the boardwalk you’ll notice something pretty unique; flip flop/shoe storage! I’ve never seen this at any of the other beaches I’ve visited so far. It’s a great idea and one that you’ll want to take advantage of for sure!
ANOTHER THOUGHTFUL BEACH IN FLORIDA
BEAUTIFUL SAND & WATER
Like most of the beaches between Clearwater and North Captiva, the west coast of Florida has some amazing water. Whitney Beach is located within this area and the water won’t disappoint. Typically, flat and calm, it is perfect for relaxing, floating and playing with the kids! Water temps are cold in the winter (60’s) and warm up to the high 80’s during the summer.
