For many of us the perfect vacation existing in our fantasies is sitting on a white sandy beach while a warm, turquoise ocean laps at our feet. We long to go somewhere and unwind while tall palms sway above us. Let's explore some of these prime locations throughout the world.
The Hawaiian Islands in the United States have some of the most breath-taking and enchanted beaches that to welcome you year round. Kauai is an example of the perfect getaway, with its tropical temperatures, romance, and tranquility. It's a lush and green paradise but not overly developed. This gives you a chance to enjoy one of those lovely beaches without intrusion by other people.
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.
Don't miss a trip to the famous South Beach if you are heading to Florida. It has a topless beach and is a playground for adults. This is not the place for a family vacation. The beach itself is actually man made and stretches for miles with clean tropical water. The funky art deco culture that surrounds the beautiful scenery is the draw to South Beach. Many martini bars and live music venues line the waterfront. Be sure to visit some of them for a shot of Latin culture.
We now head south to Brazil, Ipanema Beach to be exact. Located in festive Rio de Janeiro, Ipanema Beach was made famous by a song in the 60s bearing its name. If you are looking to be surrounded by scantily clad beautiful people (both men and women) then Ipanema Beach is the place for you. Miles of white sand beaches equals many days worth of sun, fun, and excellent people watching. A visit to this beach and the surrounding area is a wild ride worth taking.
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.
Finally, we come to the French Riviera of St. Tropez. This is now one of the most popular and hot destinations in Europe. Once it was the hideaway for movie stars. St. Tropez is close to Cannes and filled with those who appreciate the finer things in life and don't hesitate to flaunt it. The bright blue waters make the beach stunning, if you're not in the mood for the beach then there is still plenty to do. While visiting this exciting local, people watching at one of the beachfront cafes are a must.
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.
