I think Cooper's beach and Coronada Beach are a nice place to go.

I am a huge fan of any vacation that includes a beach destination. These are definitely beautiful beaches to travel to. I think one of the best things you can do on a trip is pack a daypack with a picnic and towels and spend the entire day on the beach!

These are beautiful. Hanalei is wonderful. One of my favorite beaches in Hawaii.
I am interested in advertising on your site. Could you please contact me if you are interested?

I can't believe there are no Cape Cod beaches on this list! The travesty! :)
