Beaches & Adventure Insider

Lauren Tjaden

Hang gliding is my passion, and in 2006, I helped the U.S. Women's Hang Gliding Team win silver in the World Championships. An author, ultimate adventure lover, beach bunny and sand snob, I've visited almost every beach in Florida and can't wait to explore more. Join me as I flip-flop across the Sunshine State, sharing the softest sand, sweetest shores and a boatload of adventure.


Today's Key West event guaranteed to float ur flip-flops- but not ur boat! #Florida @thefloridakeys http://t.co/UbWjcM0n

Island Love: Anna Maria Movie

July 20, 2010

Related Tags: Beaches, Anna Maria Island

It’s no big secret: I’m head-over-heels in love.


You can hardly blame me. The reasons are as simple – and as sweet – as a springtime strawberry. After all, Anna Maria Island is laid-back, you can eat right on the beach in any number of funky little restaurants, and the water is to-die-for, clear and tinted a green-blue color.


Check out the little video I shot there a few weeks ago and you’ll see why I can’t get the pristine paradise out of my mind.


This video was shot with my KODAK Zx1 Pocket Video Camera.
