点评:I visited Crandon Beach in Key Biscayne expecting a beautiful and relaxing day by the ocean, but I left feeling completely let down. This beach simply did not live up to its reputation.
The first thing I noticed was the overwhelming amount of seaweed. It was everywhere — piled up along the shore and floating all throughout the shallow water. It made it nearly impossible to enjoy the ocean. The smell was bad, and it gave the entire beach a dirty, uncared-for feeling. I understand that seaweed can be seasonal or weather-related, but it clearly hadn’t been cleaned up or maintained in days.
Aside from the seaweed, the beach itself was just dirty. There was trash scattered around — food wrappers, empty bottles, and bits of plastic here and there. It made the area feel neglected and unattractive. For a beach in such a well-known area like Key Biscayne, I was expecting something much cleaner and better maintained. It honestly felt more like a forgotten city lot than a major public beach.
Another big letdown was the water. Based on the photos and reviews I’d seen online, I was expecting shallow, calm, clear water with sandbars you could walk out on. That wasn’t the case at all. The water was murky and filled with seaweed, with no sandbars or special features in sight. I didn’t even feel comfortable getting in. It looked nothing like the peaceful, clear beach it’s made out to be in pictures.
To be fair, the general park area does have nice facilities — there are shaded spots, palm trees, and picnic tables, which might be good for families who just want a green space to hang out. But if you’re coming for the beach experience itself, you’re going to be disappointed. It’s just not worth it when there are so many better beaches nearby in Miami.
Overall, Crandon Beach was a major letdown. I wouldn’t recommend it unless serious improvements are made to the cleanliness of both the water and the sand. I give it 1 star, and I won’t be coming back.
翻译:我去了比斯坎岛的克兰登海滩,原本期待着在海边度过美好而轻松的一天,结果却大失所望。这片海滩简直名不副实。
我首先注意到的是海藻的泛滥。它们到处都是——沿着海岸堆积如山,漂浮在浅水区。这几乎让我无法享受海洋的乐趣。海滩的气味难闻,让整个海滩都显得脏乱不堪,无人照管。我知道海藻的生长可能是季节性的,也可能与天气有关,但显然已经好几天没有清理或维护了。
除了海藻,海滩本身也很脏。到处都是垃圾——食品包装纸、空瓶子,还有零星的塑料碎片。这让这片区域显得有些荒凉,毫无吸引力。对于像比斯坎岛这样知名地区的海滩,我原本期待它能更干净、维护得更好。说实话,这里感觉更像是一个被遗忘的城市地块,而不是一个重要的公共海滩。
另一个令人失望的地方是海水。根据我在网上看到的照片和评论,我原本期待的是浅浅的、平静的、清澈的海水,还有可以漫步的沙洲。但事实并非如此。海水浑浊,到处都是海藻,看不到沙洲或其他任何特殊景观。我甚至感觉不敢下水。它看起来一点也不像照片上描绘的宁静清澈的海滩。
平心而论,公园里的设施还不错——有阴凉处、棕榈树和野餐桌,对于那些只想找个绿地休闲的家庭来说,或许还不错。但如果你只是为了体验海滩而来,你可能会失望。迈阿密附近有那么多更好的海滩,所以来这里根本就不值得。
总的来说,克兰登海滩令人大失所望。除非海水和沙子的清洁度得到显著改善,否则我不会推荐这里。我给它1星,而且不会再来了。
