Best Beaches of the world

Best Beaches of the world

Date: 2013-11-15
Every traveler knows that the perfect family-friendly beach has to deliver more than just a picturesque scene. Beaches with wide sand, calm waves, and easily accessible amenities are what parents need when the little ones are in tow. 

Polihale Beach,Kauai, Hawaii - Best for Seclusion:Barrier dunes frame this wild, seven-mile stretch, ranked No. 1 in this category. It's the westernmost public beach on Kauai, accessible only via sugarcane farm roads that date back to the early 1900s.

South Beach,Miami - Best for People-Watching:Gym-goers in short shorts vie for attention with women in skimpy bikinis at this No. 1 people-watching beach along the Atlantic Ocean, famous for its waterfront parties and pastel-colored Art Deco hotels.

Bahia Gardner, Espa–ola Island,Galapagos -Best for Wildlife Viewing:Most travelers visiting Darwin's famous islands stop at this top-ranked beach, Bahia Gardner, where explorers share the sandy shore with sea lions, red lava lizards, Espa–ola mockingbirds, and other native wildlife.

One Foot Island Beach,Cook Islands - Best for Seclusion:There are no permanent residents on One Foot Island, ranked No. 2 for seclusion, where travelers can walk through shallow blue waters to long sandbars. Drumbeats at sundown signal the last boat back to neighboring Aitutaki island.

Seven Mile Beach,Grand Cayman - Best for Families:This island's fine sand and tranquil blue waters would impress any traveler, though parents are especially taken with the all-inclusive hotel options, and kids love the laid-back activities, from snorkeling to shell-hunting, at this second-ranked beach for families.
