Fourth of July celebrations have had to contend with many restrictions and cancelations across the country this year. Several Florida beaches have even been closed for the holiday to promote social distancing. However, there are still plenty of shorelines to enjoy this weekend, and some of The Sunshine State’s favorite beaches will still be open. If you’re looking for some sand to dig your toes into this holiday, check out these open Florida beaches this Fourth of July weekend.
