Stephen Leatherman, a coastal scientist and professor at Florida International University, has been drafting a list of the best beaches in the U.S. under the alias Dr. Beach since 1991. This year he has named Kahanamoku Beach, on the west end of Waikiki Beach and in view of the iconic Diamondhead volcano in the distance, the sixth-best beach in the country.

CORONADO, CA Coronado Beach cracked the Dr. Beach 2021 top 10 beaches in America list released Thursday, with the coastal scientist and professor behind the annual rankings calling it the toast of Southern California. It is a veritable oasis by the sea that is hundreds of yards wide, Leatherman wrote. With its subtropical vegetation, unique Mediterranean climate and fine sparkling sand, beachgoers flock to this beach for great ship- watching and the summer s warm and mild surf. The local landmark, Hotel del Coronado, was built over a hundred years ago; kings, sheiks, actors and actresses have stayed at this iconic hotel.
