When the sun starts to shine and the temperatures begin to rise, there's nothing quite like heading down to the beach and basking in the sunlight, swimming in the water, and having fun with family and friends. Beaches are the ultimate getaway spots, free from the noise and pollution of major cities, offering nothing but fun, sun, sand, and enjoyment for people of all ages and backgrounds. No matter who you are or what's going on in your life, you can always have a great time at the beach, and the United States of America has three super coastlines to explore. Certain attractions may be temporarily closed or require advance reservations. Hours/availability may have changed.
