Summer is still a few months away but it’s never too early to start planning your getaway!
We’re lucky to have some of the best beaches right in our own country, but for those who want to step up their travel game, it’s time to dip your feet in new waters so to speak. Here are popular beaches around the world you can visit:
Navagio Beach, Greece
Navagio Beach, more popularly known as “Shipwreck Beach”, is located along the coast of Zakynthos, Greece. It is a small exposed cove, only partially hidden by high cliffs that surround it.
Like a scene in a pirate movie, it has clear turquoise waters, white sand, and a rusty old shipwreck washed up on the shore.
Whitehaven Beach, Australia
Whitehaven Beach is located in Queensland, Australia. It covers seven kilometers on Whitsunday Island and boasts of its silica sand.
There is an inlet in the northern part of the beach where colors merge from swirling waters and sand to look like a painting.
Praia do Sancho Beach, Brazil
Praia do Sancho Beach is located in Pernambuco, Brazil. It’s a consistent candidate in the list of the world’s best beaches, probably because it is a part of a national park.
This beach is not easy to access for everyone. It is secluded and can only be reached by passing through narrow vertical tunnels and long stairs.
Tulum Beach, Mexico
Tulum Beach is located in Quintana Roo, Mexico. It is a Caribbean beach popular for the ancient Mayan ruins found along its coastline.
Imagine being in a famous beach and an archeological site at the same time. You could pose as a pirate or a tomb raider for your Instagram photos!
Seven Mile Beach, Cayman Islands
Seven Mile Beach is located in the Cayman Islands. It is one of the Caribbean’s best beaches known for its turquoise waters and coral-colored sand. The calm waves are perfect for swimming and snorkeling.
Because it’s near town, there are bars, shops, restaurants along the shore.
Grace Bay Beach, Turks and Caicos Islands
Grace Bay Beach is located in Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands. Tourists and travel experts say this is the greatest beach on earth with the clearest blue waters and softest white sand.
It stretches 19 kilometers long and is situated in a remote area of the Caribbean.
Anse Source d’Argent Beach is located in La Digue Island, Seychelles. If you are looking for the perfect tropical paradise complete with palm trees, fine sand, crystal clear waters, and rock formations, this is the place to be.
You can rest on a hammock, sip juice from a coconut, and listen to reggae music!
