Walk in the Sand Florida Journey
This journey is a walk across the beachfronts of every beach in Florida starting at the tip of the panhandle, walking across and down the west coast, and back up the east coast of Florida. This journey will highlight my hikes and walking distances and destinations. At each beach, I talk about the sand, shoreline, wildlife and water and I share my hike along the soft Florida sands and my recommendations for where to start and stop a beach hike in the area. And I share when to kick off your shoes and when to keep them on. For more information about each beach and beach community in Florida, see my guides on FloridaSmart.com
