Emerald
green water and sugar white sand has been Pensacola
Beach's welcome mat since it was first discovered
in 1559. Four centuries later, visitors are still
amazed that the beauty surpasses the descriptions
they've heard.
Tourists
take samples back home in zip-lock bags and officials bring
buckets full of our sand to conventions. A Mason jar full
of the famous surf was even shown on "Good Morning America",
but it looked like a Mason jar full of any other water...which
proves there's just no substitute for standing ankle deep
in the breaking surf to fully experience the colors, textures,
and sounds that make Pensacola Beach astounding.
Located
on Santa Rosa Island, Pensacola Beach is known for its rolling
sand dunes that look solid but are in a constant state of
change. They are made of lighter grains of sand blown onto
the barrier island by offshore winds.
Typical
of Pensacola Beach are pristine white beaches, teal green
waters, sea oats swaying in the breeze, and breathtaking sunsets.
