The US Beach Info API delivers detailed information about beaches in the United States, as compiled from reliable state-level sources. It allows developers to query: All available states in the dataset. The total number of beaches in a given state. The best-rated beach and its exact location for a specified state. By structuring the data into separate endpoints and supporting parameters, the API ensures efficient data retrieval without overloading responses. This is ideal for applications such as travel planning, tourism analytics, or interactive maps.

The US Beach Info API provides data on the total number of beaches in each U.S. state, the best-rated beach in a specified state, and the exact location of these beaches.
The data from the US Beach Info API is structured and filtered, allowing for efficient retrieval. The output is typically in JSON format, which is easy to integrate into applications.
The US Beach Info API can be used for travel planning applications, tourism analytics, and interactive maps that help users discover and explore beaches across the United States.
Developers can query the API to retrieve all available states, the total number of beaches in a state, and details about the best-rated beach in that state, using structured endpoints and parameters.
The core value proposition of the US Beach Info API is to provide reliable and organized beach-related data, enabling developers to create engaging and informative applications that enhance user experiences related to beach tourism.
Each endpoint returns specific beach-related data: the "fetch all available states" endpoint provides a list of U.S. states, the "get total number of beaches by state" endpoint returns the total beach count for a specified state, and the "get best rated beach by state" endpoint delivers details about the highest-rated beach, including its name and location.
The key fields in the response data include "states" for the list of states, "state" for the queried state name, "total_beaches" for the count of beaches, "best_beach_name" for the name of the top-rated beach, and "location" for its geographical location.
The response data is organized in JSON format, with each endpoint returning an array of objects. Each object contains relevant fields, such as state names, beach counts, or details about the best-rated beach, making it easy to parse and utilize in applications.
The endpoints accept parameters such as the state name for the "get total number of beaches by state" and "get best rated beach by state" endpoints. Users must provide a valid state name to receive accurate data in response.
Users can customize their data requests by specifying the state name in the relevant endpoints. For example, to get the total number of beaches or the best-rated beach, users simply include the desired state name as a parameter in their API call.
Typical use cases for this data include travel planning applications that help users find beaches, tourism analytics for understanding beach popularity, and interactive maps that allow users to explore beach locations and ratings across the U.S.
Data accuracy is maintained by sourcing information from reliable state-level databases and regularly updating the dataset to reflect current beach counts and ratings, ensuring users receive trustworthy information.
Users can expect standard data patterns such as consistent naming conventions for states, numerical values for beach counts, and structured responses that include specific fields for easy integration into applications.
To obtain your API key, you first need to sign in to your account and subscribe to the API you want to use. Once subscribed, go to your Profile, open the Subscription section, and select the specific API. Your API key will be available there and can be used to authenticate your requests.
You can’t switch APIs during the free trial. If you subscribe to a different API, your trial will end and the new subscription will start as a paid plan.
If you don’t cancel before the 7th day, your free trial will end automatically and your subscription will switch to a paid plan under the same plan you originally subscribed to, meaning you will be charged and gain access to the API calls included in that plan.
The free trial ends when you reach 50 API requests or after 7 days, whichever comes first.
No, the free trial is available only once, so we recommend using it on the API that interests you the most. Most of our APIs offer a free trial, but some may not include this option.
Yes, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost, so you can test our APIs without any commitment.
Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.
