Americans do love their beach vacations and, when it comes to summer, there are loads of beaches to choose from around the United States.
According to a study by travel expert Journey Era, when looking at social media hashtags, these are the hottest spots on the sand.
South Beach, Florida
This beach is emblematic of what visitors imagine when they think of a beach vacation. Wide stretches of sand, warm water, calm waves and a lively nightlife. Travelers can experience the posh side of Miami in the most popular beach destination in the country with United Vacations or Travel Impressions.
Miami Beach, Florida
An Art-Deco paradise, Miami Beach is the quintessential beach paradise. With the big city as a backdrop, guests can truly disconnect on Ocean Drive. Get there with Southwest Vacations and Apple Vacations.

Venice Beach, California
Get those L.A. beach vibes on the Venice Boardwalk. Strap on roller blades or rent a skateboard and cruise around. Explore the beach's bar and restaurant scene and shop in ecelectic boutiques that are unmistakably California.
Apple Vacations, Funjet Vacations, and Travel Impressions are known for their expertise in Mexico and Caribbean resort getaways, but the selection of U.S. city hotels are also vast.
Newport Beach, California
Life is a little less dramatic here than on teen drama "The O.C." where a laidback beach community is bookended by The Newport Beach Pier and Balboa Pier. Explore retro amusements at the Balboa Fun Zone, explore the harbor by electric boat and enjoy myriad culinary and shopping experiences throughout the area or just kick back and relax, watching the waves crash at the Wedge or the stunning California sunset.
