I love the beach in Coronado. The water is a little cold but otherwise, it's spectacular.
It's officially in the city of Coronado not San Diego.

I'm not much of a believer in 'best of' lists as if they are on the list, they have likely already been discovered by the masses. I agree w/superC as well. Love the one your with.

By far, the most beautiful beach I have ever seen is Destin, FL. I have been to many, many beaches - grew up on the beach in Cape Cod, MA. and there is no place like Destin in my opinion. It is absolutely magical - breathtaking!
I have been all over Hawaii, which has wonderful beaches; but there is nothing to compare to Destin!
