Something like this, in florida, is hard to come by. Especially on the eastern coastline.

I see you're a contributor to both threads, beautiful pictures. Again, my view hasn't changed. Florida has some beautiful beaches, some of the best in the USA but unfortunately most of its coast line just doesn't give off that rural, virgin, pristine vibe you get when you're in Dominican Republic. That's something Florida has lost decades ago. There's either a highway or a condo somewhere within 5 miles. It has become a victim of its own success. At least it has the everglades, even though a good chunk of it is swamp.

that's true florida is full of buildings , have virgin areas but not similar to dominican republic

but USA have most amazing beaches than Dominican Republic

do not forget, Hawaii, Virgin Islands in the Caribbean and the USA islands in Polynesia

the coast of Florida is 985KM and in parts of the Gulf of Mexico side has many unspoiled and virgin beaches but these are no better than the Dominican Republic

nice day

Well, the USA being a really big country will have a large variety of coast. Dominican Republic being such a small country does really well preserving its beaches and forests. One can only hope the people of the Dominican Republic fight to protect their country's wonderful natural beauty.
