In states like Florida and California, all of the coastal beaches are public property by law. It is illegal for a private landowner to claim part of the beach.
I was in Miramar a few months back. Some of the larger condo complexes definitely had signs up saying most of the beach was private, it was only a sliver right by the waves that was public access.
Coral Gables too, there were swathes gated off to private residences. Not sure if it was legal or not, but sure seemed to be accepted.
