Holidays in Gold Coast, Florida

The Gold Coast. Overview.

When people talk about The Gold Coast it means about 60 miles along this stunning Atlantic shoreline with its fantastic sunsets. The string of sunny beaches which make up the Gold Coast runs from Jupiter in opulent Palm Beach County in the North, to Fort Lauderdale, and the paradise which is Miami and Miami Beach. The Gold Coast name comes from long ago when people stole gold from the ships wrecked along the coast. But frankly it makes more than enough of its own gold now from being such a beautiful holiday area. Its success lies with the huge variety of beaches, culture, cuisine entertainment, individual coastal resorts and fascinating cities.

Lie down on one of the sunny, tropical beaches which string along the Gold Coast, pinch yourself to confirm that you have arrived in a coastline which fits the perfect glossy brochure Florida holiday picture of, sun, sea, suntans and dolphins Each beach is different from the other.
