WORLD’S MOST BEAUTIFUL BEACHES
About:-
Beaches are the Valium of the travel world. They soothe,
they relax, they make you realize that “real life” occasionally needs escaping.
There are very few people immune to the magical lure of the beach. Whether
you’re keen on sunbathing, sports, or exploring the underwater world or simply
contemplating the infinite possibilities of the horizon, there’s no doubt the
beach is the perfect destination for fun and relaxation. Most of all, these
slivers of sand against the ocean are a reminder that the world can be quite
beautiful. However, there are a number of beaches around the world that have
achieved well-deserved fame for their exquisite beauty, endless expanses of
white sand and balmy waters. We’ve chosen ten of our favorite, outstanding,
popular and 10 Most Beautiful Beaches.
1. Anse Source d’Argent – Seychelles
On the top of the most beautiful Beaches around the world
Anse Source d’Argent, located in La Digue, the third largest inhabited island
of the Seychelles. A major contender for the top spot, this ribbon of sand on
the island, La Digue, mixes salt-white and flamingo-pink sands to create one of
the most photographed beaches in the world.
A reef keeps the water calm, so make the most of rental
snorkels to explore the shallow waters, after which you can explore granite
boulders further inland.
The nearby restaurant, Lanbousir, offers local Creole
dishes, including the tempting fruit-bat curry. DIY lovers can fix their own
picnic from a supermarket just five minutes from the beach.
From the Seychelles’ main island of Mahe, take a ferry to
the jetty at La Passe, on La Dique Island. From there flag down an ox-cart to
L’Union Estate. A footpath leads to Anse Source d’Argent. There’s a small
entrance fee for non-residents.
2. Sun Island – Maldives
Recognized as the world’s best and one of the most beautiful
beaches, located in a beach-lover’s paradise, Maldives. This diamond in the
middle of the Indian Ocean has become a favorite with celebs and rich
honeymooners drawn by the thought of sleeping over the water, literally. If you
want to be as near as possible to the water, you can do no better – especially
at Sun Island Beach, where many resorts offer luxury bungalows on stilts in the
water, where you can be sent to sleep with the sound of real water lapping at
your doorstep. Nearby coral reefs attract thousands of tropical fish, snorkelers
and divers.
But you don’t even need to be a water baby to enjoy the
scenery — parts of the reef are visible from the beach, so clear is the water.
3. Matira – Bora Bora – Tahiti
Bora Bora is one of the magical islands that make up French
Polynesia in the South Pacific. This Island is like the Gwyneth Paltrow of
beaches — a little too perfect to be believable. But the spell that this small
island is a major international tourist destination, famous for its
aqua-centric luxury resorts. But its best spot, Matira Beach, reminds you why
places like this become popular in the first place. Feed sharks, hunt for black
pearls, look through World War II memorabilia or just laze on the sand. At the
world’s greatest beach, life takes you easy. Fly to Papeete in Tahiti, about
seven and a half hours from Los Angeles. Then catch a flight to Bora Bora’s
tiny airport on Motu Mute.
4. Whitehaven – Queensland – Australia
It’s difficult to pick a favourite in a country known for
its beautiful beaches, but if you’re looking for unspoilt, flawless natural
beauty, the fine sands of Whitehaven in Australia’s Whitsunday Islands are a
strong contender. With more than four kilometers of sand that is 98 percent
pure silica, so clean it squeaks. Whitehaven Beach is part of the Whitsunday Islands
National Park. There is a bit of effort involved in getting here, but the
pay-off is a spectacularly scenic location that is still relatively quiet once
the daytrippers have left for the evening.
5. Maya Bay – Ko Phi Phi – Thailand
Maya Bay is a white sand beach hugged by steep limestone
cliffs. Coral reefs make it an excellent spot for snorkeling. This strikingly
beautiful beach has seen its popularity skyrocket after featuring in the
Leonardo DiCaprio film The Beach, but it’s still worth visiting for the
dramatic setting and marvellous snorkelling opportunities. Thousands of people
visit the bay every day.
6. Pulau Perhentian Kecil – Malaysia

backpacker-happy Pulau Perhentian Kecil (Small Perhentian Island), and Pulau
Perhentian Besar (Big Perhentian Island), which has slightly more expensive
accommodation. Dive in the crystal blue waters off Pulau Perhentian Kecil and
you’re almost guaranteed to swim with sea turtles and small sharks. Hang around
the island’s beach-side restaurants at 5 p.m. to watch fishermen bring in the
day’s catch and haggle with restaurant owners. The only way to get to the
Perhentian Islands is by sea. Boat services are available from Kuala Besut.
