FLORIDA VAN LIFE
WITH MOVING OASIS
30 Days of Beaches in Florida
In June, Nat and I set out to complete a challenge – 30 days of beaches. We wanted to go to a beach every single day in June. We had the time of our lives! Being able to see so many places in Florida that we have not seen before, even though Nat has lived in Florida her whole life, and I have lived here for almost 20 years. It was a great challenge to get outside, explore, and be amazed by our backyard.
At first, we wanted to go to 30 different beaches in June. When we realized that wasn’t as feasible as we would have liked – with full-time jobs and whatnot, we scaled it back to ensure we go to a beach every day. We have a few favorites we will get into, but first, here is a list of all the beaches we went to in June that we think you should go on for your next Florida road trip in order from north to south.

Coral Cove Park, Florida
Coral Cove Park is on the Intracoastal, and the water is so clean and crystal blue. Nathalie and I don’t usually swim in the Intracoastal, but at Coral Cove Park, it is definitely very clean. We love beaches where the van has a great view of the beach, so we can hang out in the van, cook a yummy meal and enjoy the view for hours on end.
