Top 10 Most Beautiful Beaches in the World

What came across your mind when you heard the word "Beach"? Bikini, sunbathing, surfing, holiday and much more.... Beach is a place for me to relax, indulge myself and recharge my energy. Everytime I feel exhausted, beach will be my first option! Therefore, I've done my research on beaches that worth to go and listed them here!


1. Bora Bora island, French Polynesia



Bora Bora island is a fairy-tale creation of jagged volcanic peaks juxtaposed against crystal-clear aqua lagoons. One of the world's most famous dream destinations.


2. Pink Sands Beach, Bahamas


Pink Sands Beach, located on Harbour Island, part of the Out Islands of the Bahamas, is design for those desiring a sophisticated but relaxed beach holiday... Snooze on a secluded pink sanded beach, explore the unspoiled beauty of nearby Eleuthera Island or enjoy a wide array of water sports, including bone-fishing, reef fishing, deep sea fishing, snorkeling and much more! The sand is made up of tiny bits of coral, crushed shells and red-shelled of the foraminifera.


3. Punalu'u Beach, USA


Punalu'u's black-sand wonderland located on Hawaii Big Island has won a few ‘best beach’ awards in recent times, and it’s truly an astonishing sight: Punalu'u's startling blue waters lap up against the jetblack beach, which is backed by rows of deep-green coconut palms. The scenery demands your constant, supine contemplation – and you might even spot a hawksbill turtle wandering onto the sand to lay its eggs.


4. Boracay Island, Philippines


Boracay island is a beautiful small island surrounded by coral reefs. This palm-studded island of Boracay - with its white, talcum-fine beach, balmy weather and warm, crystalline waters - is like a hypnotic magnet that lures many to a lotus existence.Some experienced travelers claim it to be the "Finest Beach of All Asia".


5. Bryan Bay, Australia


Byron Bay is a place of mystery, myth and legend. Beaches are dotted with lighthouses and surrounded by bottlenose dolphins, rays, whales and sea turtles.


6. Cook Islands


Cook Islands is a castaway’s dream come true. If you’ve ever fantasized about escaping to a remote desert island, far from the hustle and hum of the modern world, then look no further than these 15 fascinating islands, where you’ll find a thousand years of Polynesian culture sitting side by side with some of the most spectacular natural scenery in the South Pacific. The jewel in the crown is Rarotonga, the largest island – a bewitching blend of craggy mountains, dense jungle and glorious bone-white beaches. 


7. Isla Mujeres, Mexico


Isla Mujeres is an unpretentious island off shore from CancĂșn, just 7km long and barely 1km wide, is light years away from the glitzy mainland scene. Its tropical beaches make it a cult fave, with those on the south side known for calm turquoise waters. For get-on-down Caribbean fun, visit Playa Norte, a popular beach with waiters who’ll bring drinks to your spot on the sand.


8. Pulau Perhentian, Malaysia


The palm-fringed beaches of the Perhentian Islands, covered in tropical rainforest, are about as natural as they come: calm, hassle-free and with virtually no signs of commercialisation. Except for snorkelling, diving, frolicking, swimming, sunning your body.


9.  Culebra, Puerto Rico


Culebra with its 23 offshore islands forms a miniature archipelago. Coral reefs in this area are considered some of the most spectacular of the entire Caribbean region. Culebra's rugged countryside, outrageous beaches and small-scale tourist industry make the 25-square-mile island a Caribbean treasure for travelers. 


10. Horseshoe Bay, Bermuda


'You go to heaven if you want - I'd rather stay here in Bermuda.' So gushed Mark Twain in the 19th century, and Bermuda's promise of sun and sea still lures vacationers to its shores. Horseshoe bay's surrounding turquoise waters give snorkelers and divers reason to rejoice: The calm waters and preserved reefs of beaches like Church Bay and Daniel's Head Beach Park feature regular sightings of sergeant majors and parrot and angel fish.

  6. Apart from these outstanding beaches I’d like to recommend Bora Bora which is one of the most prominent and quite natural islands of France in the Pacific Ocean. It is multi blue colored lagoon which is ideal place for honeymoon couples.
