8 Pristine Beach Destinations You Deserve a Getaway To
The Maldives
A tiny tropical nation in the Indian Ocean, the Maldives are a string of atolls ringed by lagoons, reefs, and of course, beaches. In terms of the best beaches, this is one of the more luxurious destinations you can choose from.
There are nearly 1,200 islands in the Maldives, and almost all of them have sand as soft and white as vanilla gelato, while the water surrounding the islands seems almost luminously blue. The bright colors and near perfection of each of the islands make these some of the best beaches on the planet.
To top things off, each luxury resort takes up its own exclusive island, so you will feel like you are in a completely private world.
This two week New Zealand itinerary will help you soak up all the beauty and culture this island nation has to offer. Get planning!
Turks and Caicos Islands
With 40 islands altogether, there are plenty of beaches to get away to in Turks and Caicos. The beaches are uncrowded, the reefs are brimming with marine life, and the water comes in several rich shades of turquoise, making this an ideal destination for diving and snorkeling, as well as sipping rum cocktails next to the beach.
Turks and Caicos are also ideal for travelers looking for a little serenity and luxury on their holiday. If that sounds like you, check out some of the exclusive resorts that line Grace Bay Beach. They provide plenty of rainy day options in case of less-than-ideal weather, too.
