Retirement marks a transition from decades of labor to leisure, discovery, and, for many, a change of scenery. Retirees must choose a retirement location. Location, weather, cost of living, healthcare, safety, and leisure affect retirement quality of life. Many retirees yearn for beachfront tranquility.

This post highlights some of the most gorgeous beach communities for retirees from the East to the West Coast of the U.S., south, and outside. We’ll explain why these places are ideal for retirees and what makes them distinctive. If you’re retired or preparing ahead, read on!

      Thanks for your comments/assessment. On a limited budget, one really has to experience somethings for him/herself. Your comments help.
