We are going to have a soft launch of new beaches in the Bahamas. We have posted info on a dozen or so beaches so far and we will release the rest of them in the coming weeks.
If anyone finds any problems, we would love to hear about them. You can contact us at http://www.keepoffthedunes.com/info/contact
Special thanks to our keep off the dunes team member Dan. Dan has spent countless hours adding new beaches to our site over the past few weeks and now we all have access to a ton more beaches!
Thanks Dan!!!
Sorry folks, we are having a few problems when users are searching for beaches near a location.
We are rolling out a new searching system soon that should solve all problems and make it a whole lot easier to search for beaches near a location.
New features include improved location matching, better mapping and an improved layout.
Hope to have it online soon,
Thanks for being patient…
Just purchased America’s Best Beaches book by Dr. Stephen P. Leatherman. It has great pictures and reviews and it discusses environmental issues surrounding beaches.
Great buy, check out its page on Amazon
A favorite beach destination for us has always been Siesta Key. Home to possibly the nicest sand in the entire world. Great little island that is hopping with life, great down town area with bars, restaurants, and gift shops great area for all ages. Check out these beaches on Keep off the Dunes.com…
Siesta Beach and Cresent Beach (the two main beaches on Siesta Key).
Our favorite local places…
Siesta Key Oyster Bar (visit website) and the Daiquiri Deck (visit website)
Great beach!
Incredible sunsets in Siesta Key…
We integrated tons of new pictures, now hundreds of beaches have a “Featured Image” which is the image that is associated with it during a search or at the top of the beach page.
Take a look through the Photos page for your favorite beach, there are now thousands of photos to look through!
Special thanks to Panoramio for providing us which such a great service, visit them at http://www.panoramio.com/
In Dr. Beach’s list, the former #1 beaches are excluded from the current list. We have found and created a page for many of them.
