Best Beaches 2006
"Dr. Beach" Names Fleming Beach
Park America’s Best
Fleming Beach Park takes the
number one spot in the 16th annual Top 10
Beaches rankings produced by Dr. Stephen P.
Leatherman, Director of Florida International
University’s Laboratory for Coastal Research.
The western shore of Maui is known for its
idyllic, year-round beach weather, and Fleming’s
mile-long crescent, white sand beach offers a
range of activities and stunning views of nearby
Molokai Island. A favorite area for sunbathers,
swimmers, and surfers alike, the beach is backed
by a virtual forest of trees on the low sea
cliff, providing welcome shade. Amenities
include showers, restrooms, grills, bar/snack
bar and picnic facilities overlooking the beach
plus tablecloth dining on the south end of the
park, which is the unofficial beach of the
nearby Ritz Carlton.
"Fleming Beach is a wonderful
beach, but when the surf is up during the winter
months, it is best to stay close to shore unless
you are a very strong and experienced swimmer,"
noted Leatherman, an international expert on
beaches and coastal processes. "Only swim when
the lifeguards are on duty, which is true for
any oceanic beach."
As "Dr. Beach", Leatherman has selected an
annual Top 10 Beaches since 1991. Fifty criteria
are used to evaluate beaches, which include
water and sand quality as well as facilities and
management.
What makes Leatherman's selections unique is his
knowledge as a Ph.D. coastal scientist with 30
years of scientific experience studying storm
impacts, erosion and ways to improve beach
health.
The National Healthy Beaches Campaign was
founded by Leatherman to acknowledge the many
beautiful and "healthy" beaches around the
country from seaside and lakeshore destinations
for any taste. Nominations are accepted by mail
for this program for which there is no fee.
