The World's Most Beautiful Beaches

By: Britney Barnet A vacation spent on a white sand beach looking out on warm turquoise waters, is many people's dream getaway. Many people base their vacation destination on where the waters are bathtub-warm, there are swaying palms, and you can kick back and really relax. Every continent in the world boasts some breathtaking beaches; here we will highlight a few.

Starting in the United States, Hawaii boasts some of the most romantic sun-drenched beaches year round. The island of Kauai has balmy temperatures no matter when you head there, and if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life this is the place for you. Kauai has very lush, green surroundings, but is the least developed of any of the Hawaiian Islands. This means that you can find sections of pristine white sandy beaches that you can enjoy all to yourself.

Be sure to check out Poipu Beach while in Kauai, it's perfect for the entire family and you can enjoy a variety of water sports. Snorkeling is especially popular here since the waters are crystal clear and there are many species of beautifully colored tropical fish.

South Beach, Florida is another excellent beach vacation destination. Since it's topless, it isn't considered a family beach. Many adults frolic there, however. The miles long beach is entirely manmade and the warm, tropical water is very clean. Actually, more visitors are attracted by the down home art deco culture, intermixed with the stunning natural scenery. You'll also find numerous martini bars and live Latin music for your listening and dancing pleasure.

Our next stop is Ipanema Beach in Brazil. It became famous during the 60s with the popularity of the song "Girl From Ipanema". It is situated in Rio de Janeiro, noted for its festivity, and filled with beautiful men and women, wearing little clothing. If this kind of atmosphere attracts you, then this is one of the best places on earth to enjoy it. You will find miles of white, sandy beaches to spend your happy vacation days in the sun, watching the beautiful people. Not as serene as some beach getaways, but definitely a fabulous time.

Back up north in Canada. Long Beach in Tofino British Columbia proves many people wrong those who think that Canada does not have beautiful beaches. Long beach is simply breathtaking though the waters ar not turquoise. The shore is perfect for surfing and taking long walks. There are plenty of tidal pools full of interesting sea life such as starfish. Tofino itself is full of eccentric locals and a quaint little fishing town.

Next we're off to the French Riviera home to St. Tropez. It's now one of the favorite places for a European vacation, although it used to be known as a secret escape for famous movie stars. This area attracts those with appetites for the "best" things in life and they love to let it show. It is near to Cannes, home to one of the world's most famous film festivals. The ocean water is bright blue and if you tire of sunning on the beach, find a table at one of the beachfront bistros, sit back, and watch all those gorgeous people.

People have always loved the scenic beauty of beaches and there are no shortages of destinations. Just a few on the worldwide list are Mexico, Caribbean, Costa Rica, Bali, and Australia. You can be one of the many who visit exotic beaches every year.
