Floridas Klima, gekennzeichnet durch heiß, feuchte Sommer und milde Winter, Kredet sich nicht für die Bildung von Wüsten.
Even though there are sand dunes in Florida, they are covered in vegetation and thus not suitable for sandboarding.
Once upon a time, Destin was home to Wildcat Mountain, a small sand hill that was a popular spot for sledding and sandboarding.
Leider, as Destin grew and developed, Wildcat Mountain was transformed into a residential area and replaced by townhomes.
Heute, it is not possible to sandboard in Destin nor anywhere else in Florida.
But don’t pack away your sandboard just yet. Es gibt genügend von other places in the U.S. where you can hit the dunes.

Sand Surfing in St. Augustine Beach
While traditional sandboarding might be off the table in Florida, in St. Augustin it is quite popular to go “sand surfing” up and down Butler Beach on what resembles skateboards.
Participants use a wheeled board, similar to a skateboard, to “surf” along the beach. It is different from sandboarding which involves riding down a steep dune with a sandboard (which does not have wheels).
Still, this is a fun and exciting activity that allows you to experience the thrill of skating on sand, and to explore the beach in a unique and memorable way (Dies organized tour includes having photos and videos taken for you all instagram addicts, for free).
