See How FL Beaches Ranked On Dr. Beach’s 'Top 10 Beaches List of 2025'

FLORIDA — Two Florida beaches landed on Dr. Beach’s annual “Top 10 Beaches List of 2025.”

Delnor-Wiggings Pass State Park in Naples took the No. 4 spot on the list, while St. Andrews State Park in Panama City came in at No. 7.

“This barrier island beach boasts of beautiful white sand beaches and crystal-clear Gulf waters. Activities include swimming, snorkeling, paddle boarding, shelling, and fishing. Wildlife in the park includes bald eagles, ospreys, and manatees. Pine trees provide welcome shade,” Dr. Beach wrote about Delnor-Wiggins park.

The listing noted that the park is still recovering from Hurricane Ian, which hit the area in 2022, and some areas remain closed.

An inlet separates a small section of St. Andrews, which is just east of Panama City Beach, from the park’s main part, which is only accessed by ferry or private boat, Dr. Beach said.

“This strikingly white sandy beach is great for shelling and bird watching. Swimming and snorkeling are popular in both the Gulf of America and St. Andrews Bay on the other side,” according to the listing.

Coopers Beach in Southampton, New York, took the No. 1 spot.
