As the country sits indoors, holidays cancelled and sunny destinations just a distant dream, it’s possible to brighten up the day by taking a virtual tour of some of the finest beaches in Florida.
We’ve got to stop short of saying it’s almost like you’re there, but Florida’s 825 miles of spectacular beaches have been captured, one footstep at a time, in glorious 360-degree vision.
Using Google’s Street View Trekker technology, the process took four months, with the results integrated into Google Maps — just in time for the world to come visit, albeit virtually.
Visit Florida
has now added a useful Beach Finder feature, making full use of Google’s technology, that enables you to ‘tune’ your preferences and find the perfect beaches to explore virtually. From adventurous or laid-back beaches to family-friendly or romantic locations, and with choices including action-packed, secluded, manicured or au naturel, there’s a beach for everyone.
The Florida Beach Finder immediately delivers visual choices that best match your desires, with every tweak of the tuner changing the results before your eyes.
Find your favourite beach RIGHT HERE, then click the Street View button, and you’ll find yourself transported straight to the waterfront, ready to explore the sunny delights Florida has to offer.
