25 Best Beaches in the United States

"Carmel-by-the-Sea might be one of the most beautiful places in the U.S., apparent in its lapis-colored waters and rocky shoreline. This spectacular white-sand beach, located at the foot of Ocean Avenue, is a popular surfing spot. Visitors can enjoy a dip in the cool, crystal-clear waters with views of Pebble Beach to the north and Point Lobos to the south. Dogs are allowed off-leash with conscientious owners. Pack a picnic and a bottle of local wine (also permitted), and savor a magnificent California sunset in this seaside paradise." - Travel + Leisure Editors
