Beach Destinations
To many, the beach represents what vacations are all about. A chance to relax and let the stresses of everyday life ebb away like the sound of the waves lapping the shore. Where soft white sand meets clear blue water as the sun shines from above, the feeling of sand between the toes – this is often what we yearn for to escape the humdrum of daily existence. Beaches can have a rugged beauty like the windswept exposed shores of colder climes or black sand beaches in volcanic regions. However, it is normally the warm inviting beaches of sunnier destinations that fire the imagination.
The islands of the Caribbean are home to a wide range of idyllic beaches, as are nearby places like Mexico and Belize. Costa Rica and the Galapagos have lovely beaches too, plus these are often frequented by wildlife like turtles, iguanas and sea lions. South East Asia and the Pacific region are blessed with countless beach-strewn coastlines. In Thailand, Indonesia and Palau they may have a backdrop of vaulting limestone cliffs and hillsides. Whether the Indian Ocean, Mediterranean Sea, South Pacific, or any of the world’s seas, beautiful beaches and charming beach towns offer myriad vacation opportunities.
