Several Tampa Bay favorites ranked among Florida's best beaches in USA Today's 10Best Awards.
The highest of all was Clearwater Beach, which took second place. The list cited its sunsets, dolphin sightings, and "sugary, talc-white strand of sand" as the primary reasons for the honor.

Other familiar spots included Treasure Island Beach at no. 3 and St. Pete Beach at no. 7.
