Top 10 Most Beautiful Beaches In the World (By FunxSite)
The Maldives are a perfect destination whether
your dream beach trip consists of spending a few pampered nights in a
four-star resort or swimming among tropical fish some 80 feet
underwater.
Seychelles
One
of the most photographed beaches in the world, the pale pink sands of
Anse Source d’Argent unfurls across the island of La Digue, one of the
115 components of this archipelago in the Indian Ocean. The sands
sparkle against a backdrop of towering granite boulders, worn by time
and weather. The turquoise water is relatively shallow and protected
from the ocean’s waves by a reef.
Maldives
Whether
your dream beach trip consists of spending a few pampered nights in a
four-star resort or swimming among tropical fish some 80 feet (24
meters) underwater, the Maldives are the sort of islands where either—or
both—can come true. Straddling the Equator southwest of Sri Lanka, the
1,102 islands that make up the Maldives form 26 atolls. The soft air
enveloping the archipelago blends into a beautiful palm-fringed haze.
Bora Bora, Tahiti
This
is one of the magical islands that make up French Polynesia in the
South Pacific. Just 18 miles (29 kilometers) long, this lush little slip
of land lies in a protected lagoon edged by white sandy shores, the
best being at Matira Point. Bora Bora boasts the nickname the “Romantic
Island,” a moniker easy to appreciate with its isolated beaches,
intimate hotels, and quiet atmosphere.
The Hamptons, New York
One
of the hip spots for the air-kissing, well-heeled set, the Hamptons
boast some of the prettiest beaches on Long Island. The unspoiled
shoreline begins around Southampton and runs east to the end of the
island at Montauk. Windswept dunes and waving grasses border the
Atlantic Ocean.
Lanikai Beach, Hawaii
Half
a mile of sparkling sand, palm trees swaying over a white beach, lush
tropical plants, and endless sunshine make Lanikai one of Hawaii’s most
scenic beaches. The shore is protected by a nearby coral reef, which
keeps the surf relatively calm. The water is always deep green and
postcard-perfect.
