Which US state has the most total ocean shoreline?

Yes. Alaska.

But….did you know that Michigan…is #2!

Michigan is a Midwestern state of the United States of America, located in the east north central portion of the country. It was named after Lake Michigan, whose name was a French adaptation of the Ojibwe term mishigami, meaning “large water” or “large lake”.[2][3] Bounded by four of the five Great Lakes, plus Lake Saint Clair, Michigan has the longest freshwater shoreline in the World, and the second longest total shoreline in the United States next to Alaska (excluding island shorelines),[4] and in 2005 had more registered recreational boats than any state except California and Florida.[5] A person in Michigan is never more than 85 miles (137 km) from open Great Lakes water and is never more than 6 miles (10 km) from a natural water source. Michigan is the only bi-peninsular state. The Lower Peninsula of Michigan, to which the name Michigan was originally applied, is sometimes dubbed “the mitten,” owing to its shape. When asked where in Michigan one comes from, a resident of the Lower Peninsula may often point to the corresponding part of his or her hand. The Upper Peninsula (U.P.) is separated from the Lower Peninsula by the Straits of Mackinac, a five-mile channel that joins Lake Huron to Lake Michigan. The Upper Peninsula (whose residents are often called “Yoopers”) is economically important for tourism and its natural resources. The Upper and Lower Peninsulas are connected by the five-mile-long Mackinac Bridge, which is the third longest suspension bridge between anchorages in the world. This is the source of the name “trolls” for residents of the Lower Peninsula, for they live “under” (south of) the bridge. The Great Lakes that border Michigan are Lake Erie, Lake Huron, Lake Michigan and Lake Superior. Michigan also abuts Lake Saint Clair, which is between Lake Erie and Lake Huron.

I’d say either California or Florida – if you count the Gulf of Mexico as ocean shoreline…

Oops! Didn’t even think of Alaska! :o) Of course!

Alaska

Alaska! It has 33,000 miles of coastline. (According to Alaska Coastal Management Program). California’s is less than 900 miles. Florida has about 1200 miles (including the gulf – which has some great beaches).

Alaska of course!

That would be Alaska.

Aside from being very large, it has a lot of islands along it’s coast which is included in coastline accumulation.

That would almost certainly have to be Alaska, with all its islands and its large land mass.

Gimme an A Gimme an L Gimme an A-S-K-A! What does that spell? Alaska!!!
