I want to go with my son during his winter break. Never been to any of these 2 but he really likes the beach so Iโ€™d like to take him to a proper tropical place this time.

Hawaii overall is nicer and more expensive than Florida, however Florida easily has the better beaches. Snorkeling is going to be better in Hawaii, but the beaches themselves are pretty rocky and kind of mid, to be honest. Florida knows its beaches are the money makers and goes the extra mile to make them nice. The sand is well groomed and it's that powdery white sand that feels incredible.

Thanks. My son likes sunbathing / lounging on the beach, playing around / swimming in the water close to the shore the most; so the actual beach is really important.

(For those playing along at home, those "best beaches" are on the Big Island, while my suggestion is on Oahu.)
