The only beach in the world made of 99% quartz crystal sand. Nobody knows why quartz cryatal sand even exists at a beach where there is no native quartz to be found.
Very white sand that never gets hard and never gets hot to the touch in summer. Sandy beaches always get too hot in summer sun, but not this quartz crystal sand. And it squeeks when you walk on it.
Just found out that a dear friend lives there, so in the spring, I'm gonna visit this wonderful place. Oh, and here is the beach live cam. Be sure to watch the live cam again on Sunday evening and see the unique weekly gathering.

That's why it's the 'right' coast and/or the Beast Coast

If you've got a drum circle, then it's a sure bet that you also have 'giggling stoners' in your attic.
Next thing you know, you're ass deep in college 'know-it-all' hippies.

Looks good for winter beaching or swimming in particular.
"the racial composition of Siesta Key was: White: 92.2% Two or more races: 4.57%"
Btw, they say the quartz comes from the Appalachian mountains.

It's on the Gulf of Mexico side of Florida and sadly, there are no real waves there. I've lived on Florida's west coast for decades and always found the waves disappointing. The fun waves are on the Atlantic Ocean beaches. I miss playing in the waves.

Or there's Mavericks a bit south of San Francisco.. Aside from the waves, the other biggest difference is the deep ocean just offshore make the water temp around 53F. Hence, wetsuits invented here.

So say the Harvard experts, but they are wrong. There is no way for quartz sand to go from Appalachia to the west coat of Florida. There are no rivers running that way at all, and the rivers flowing out of Appalachia are brown with muddy silt. How clean quartz sand got here is a total mystery.

Here in California, sand migrates south until it hits the local trench that starts just offshore. If Florida has no deep (2.5 mile) trenches to drain the sand away, it likely migrates right down to the southern tip.

There are huge saltwater crocs that are becoming more and more aggressive due to the impacts of man made climate change,
They insatiably thirst for pasty white soy-filled northern flesh.
I hear they don’t exist in Georgia or Louisiana.

You fucking idiots.
Siesta key is as full of niggers as Clearwater and Holmes Beach.
The sugar white sand is predominate from anclote to boca Grande.
As for beaches with minimal Jive Turkeys, there are a few. But they are for me and @Conn77 and y’all can fuck off, we’re full.

Drywall is made of gypsum. The truly whitest sand in America at White Sands National Park, sand made of pure gypsum. I've been there and it is awesome.
