What I'm wondering is why a beach can't be it more than once? If there are certain criteria or scoring system, it would seem that the same beaches would be named at least every now and then. I'm thinking it's more of a promotional thing to promote tourism to different areas than it is to actually rank beaches on specific criteria in a fair, unbiased manner. I guess I'm just too freakin' logical.

Hey Coyne, do you have Dr. Beach's Web address so we can read a little more about the beaches and how they were ranked. I'm shooting for taking the family to Hawaii in September.
