To be specific, why is the water near beaches in west coast states like California tend to be dirtier than the beaches say in Florida? Is this generally true or a misconception?

Himmm, Trash on the Jersey shore, or trash at Malibu, or trash in Seattle/Tacoma area?
Its certainly far dirtier than it was 100 years ago as far as man made objects. However, raw sewage was flushed into these areas- so you had more bacteria and unhealthy seafoods.
I'd say- based on living on the beach for 40 years- that its a misconception, based upon nobody wants to admit that they live near crap- its easier to place 'Well, their dirtyier than we are" kinda thing

i've got been to Daytona on the Atlantic area, Miami, ft Lauderdale, Key Largo, Sanibel, and Naples (I pass to Naples quite a few cases a twelve months - mothers and fathers have a apartment on the coastline) on the Gulf area. i've got additionally been in Gulf beaches Alabama. None have the turquoise blue water like the Caribbean, however the beaches are high quality on the Gulf area. i think of the terrific beaches are actual on the Panhandle (like Destin), yet it additionally has a tendency to be cooler. based once you pass, take that for what this is.

the sand in the west coast is darker, unlike the sand in the east is almost white.
