• Just north of Miami, Florida's Hollywood Beach provides six miles of sunny, tropical coastline. The certified "Blue Wave Clean Beach" is one of the most pristine beaches in the area and is a perfect place to play volleyball, swim in the ocean or simply stroll along the water. The area is also famous for its Hollywood Beach Broadwalk, a two-mile, auto-free promenade frequented by rollerbladers, bicyclists, joggers and other pedestrians. Running alongside the beach, the Broadwalk is home to a variety of shops and restaurants. If you need a place to rest for the night, a number of hotels sit right on the Hollywood Beach Broadwalk.
