"Beachfront property" can be privately owned, commercially owned, state owned or owned by the federal government. For example: beachfront condominiums, estates, cottages, town parks, state parks, national parks and military bases.
If you want to know who owns the "beach" in Florida that's a different question. The beach up to the mean high water mark is owned by the state of Florida. However, publicly funded beach restoration projects may result in a modification of that law and widen public access to beaches that have been restored. See the link below for a current case before the US Supreme Court where the state of Florida added 75 feet to the beachfront and provided public access to the added portion.
In the Florida case, the justices seem to favorrestricting the use of eminent domain to change "beachfront" property to "beachview" property thereby protecting the property owners. Contrast that to the opinion in Kelo v City of New London where the Court approved the taking of oceanfront property from private blue collar owners where the land was to be turned over to private developers. You can read about that case at the related question link provided below.
