Florida’s Beaches: Public or Private?

Buying waterfront property is a dream for many Americans. This is particularly true in the Keys. Along with other Florida beachfront property, Key Biscayne real estate is at a premium. The invigorating aroma of the ocean, the clear blue waters, soft sand underfoot, and the instant feeling of tranquility that takes over as soon as you reach the sand …Key Biscayne property is among the most expensive and in the world.

In Florida, where the blue-green waters and white sand beaches whisper to you, waterfront homes offer luxury living at its finest. The only thing sullying the waters is the debate over beach access between private homeowners and the public beach goers.

More than one half of Florida’s beaches are private; leaving the public with little access to land that is theirs according to the Florida Constitution. Private use of portions of such lands may be authorized by law, but only when not contrary to the public interest.”

This means that from the water up to the mean high water line, the shore is public property. Dry sand areas above this point can be privately owned.
For homeowners owners, this law can be irritating as people traipse back and forth in what is their front yard. Sometimes waterfront properties are advertised as coming with private beachfront, this is very misleading.

Many Florida citizens think that they have a right to enjoy Florida’s beautiful beaches, and that this land shouldn’t only be accessible to the wealthy. There are grassroots community organizations with the express mission of trying to preserve public access to the shoreline and waters. They have been relatively successful in fighting large waterfront developers, as well as private homeowners who try to block access to the beach.

Real estate agents need to be clear about property lines, and to not advertise the property as being something that it’s not. If homeowners know straight away where their private property ends and public beachfront begins, much of the discord will end.
