With its unspoiled landscape, unhurried atmosphere and miles of white-sand beaches, New Jersey's Island Beach State Park is the perfect destination when you're looking for a place to cool off and kick back this summer. That's why the folks at Men's Fitness magazine just named it one of America's best beaches. Also on the list of "10 hot spots worth visiting this summer" were Lanikai Beach in Oahu, Hawaii; Zuma Beach in Malibu, California; and South Carolina's Hilton Head Island.
