Having an idea to take up a beach vacation this summer? Then this one’s for you! The US is one of the most geographically diverse countries on the planet. From dense and vast deserts in the southwest to the plains in the Midwest. Its coastline ranges up-to 12,383 miles, which leads to a huge number of beaches in each region adding an extra essence to the beauty of the country. Those who are living in the US, you need not go far away to another place to joy the sand and seashores. Here are the Top 7 most beautiful beaches in the US.

Ditch Plains Beach, New York

Ditch-Plains-Beach

The Ditch plains beach is located on the Montauk Peninsula, New York. This beach is known for surfing, bodyboarding, boogie boarding, and swimming. The area for surfing is quite small, as the town of East Hampton prohibits surfing within 250 feet of a designated swimming area. This beach is so pretty with smooth waves, pretty dunes. Because of its smooth waves, this beach is ideal for beginner surfers where you can opt for surf lessons and board rentals. You will need a town beach parking sticker to park here. Summer weekends are fully jam-packed, so it is ideal to visit during weekdays. You can also visit the nearby villages alongside the beaches. They are very beautiful and less crowded.

Baker Beach, San Francisco

Baker beach, San Francisco

The Baker beach lies on the shore of the Pacific Ocean, on the peninsula of San Francisco, California. This is a public beach and is only a half a mile long, starting from the south of Golden Gate Point. This Beach derived its name from the person named John Henry Baker, who settled the 160-acre property known as the Golden Gate Milk Ranch. Large crops of serpentine cliffs occur along the Pacific coast near baker beach. Rising from the land surface, serpentine produces low calcium, high-magnesium soil that allows rare species of plants to develop. Just north of the main parking lot is the Battery Chamberlin located, a large historic military gun installation that was built in 1904. The main activities at this beach are fishing, sunbathing, walking, and hiking. However, the entire baker beach is unsafe for swimming because of cold water and frequent rip currents in the surf.

Singing Beach, Massachusetts

massachusetts-singing-beach

Singing beach is just shy of a half-mile wide. This beach derived its name because of the singing sand, also called whistling sand or barking sand. This sound emission is caused by wind passing over dunes or by walking on the sand. For this sound to be produced, the sand grains have to be round and between 0.1 and 0.5mm in diameter. The Sand has to contain silica and needs to be at a certain humidity. The most common frequency emitted seems to be close to 450Hz. There are other suggestions that the frequency of vibration is related to the thickness of the dry surface layer of sand. The bathhouse was built in the early 1920s and features a small canteen/snack stand which is privately run. The parking lot features 120 parking spaces. Rubber rafts, wind surfers, kayaks, artificial floats, skim boards, boogie boards are prohibited. Climbing and diving off of rocks and island swimming are strictly prohibited. Boats must remain 100 feet outside of the designated swim area.
