What makes this the best beach in the US?

What’s so special about Siesta Key just outside Sarasota, Florida? It was named best beach in the U.S. by Dr. Beach.

Who’s that, you may ask? Associated Press reporter Tamara Lush, who lives and works in the nearby Tampa-St. Petersburg region, joins us for a conversation about Siesta Key’s soft white sand, Dr. Beach and his selection process, and what else there is to do nearby if you come down for a visit.
