1966 - the original South Beach with golden sand between the fishing pier and the Government Cut north jetty

South Beach, Miami Beach, Florida


The Miami Beach Kennel Club's two story parking garage can be see on the left at this very popular beach in the 1960's. I spent many hours at this beach in the early to mid 1960's and I took this photo to take into the service with me to remind me of the many good times I had here. It was high tide when I took the photo because the beach was considerably wider at low tide. Note the golden sand that we used to have on our beaches in South Florida instead of the white stuff that they dredged up from other areas to replenish the beaches of South Florida because of development too close the water line.
