UpTake
As most of you can see from the badge on the top right of the blog (and the one below), I am now the lead editor for UpTake.com's Beach Blog. Since I don't want to alienate any of you I wanted to link some of my work on here. UpTake.com has become the "travel industry’s deepest and broadest database of hotels and attractions has surpassed all other online travel search engines in terms of indexed sources, products, and opinions."

The Outer Banks of North Carolina
The beach culture in North Carolina’s Outer Banks reflects a strong family atmosphere. Big umbrellas and beach chairs are everywhere complete with coolers, stereos, sand castle molds and beach balls. The cool Atlantic is a fantastic reprieve after lying out in the sun and relaxing.
Beaches on Sanibel Island, Florida
Sanibel Island, Florida has some of the most pristine white sand beaches in all of the Sunshine State. The picturesque contrast of white sands, blue waters and green vegetation allow for stunning photography and the calm, warm, blue waters of the Gulf of Mexico makes these beaches very romantic getaways.
Assateague Island, Maryland
Assateague is quite simply home to one of my favorite beaches in Maryland’s eastern shore. It is an island facing the Atlantic and is only four hours away from Washington, DC. The beach here on Assateague is quiet and the water is cool. The shifting sand dunes which surround the beach provide a serene backdrop as you lay under the sun’s rays.
Waikiki Beach, Oahu, Hawaii
It is common knowledge that locals know where the best beaches are, such was the case for Waikiki Beach during a time when Hawaiian royalty ruled the islands. Waikiki was chosen as the site for the Iolani Palace inhabited by King Kalakaua, it is the only piece of royal real estate in all of the United States. Today Waikiki is one of the most famous beaches in the world, primarily because it is one of those beaches that you never forget - even if you have only seen it in a photograph.
