7 beaches you must see at least once in your life
Most of the beaches look about the same: sand and water. But there are truly unique beaches in the world that deserve special attention.
Reynisfjara black beach in Iceland
This place is not like the usual coastline. Black sand, formed as a result of volcanic activity, basalt pillars and cold wind - this is the absolute opposite of ordinary beaches, but it is this unusualness that attracts tourists. Maybe for swimming this is not the best choice, but in order to take pictures and admire the unearthly beauty of Iceland - just right.
Vaadhoo in the Maldives
The famous "shining" beach, which millions of travelers around the world dream of seeing. During the day it is just a beautiful tropical beach, but at night it turns into a magical place glowing with blue lights. An incredible phenomenon occurs due to bioluminescent microorganisms and lasts from July to February.
The beach that disappears in India
Twice a day, here the water recedes for several kilometers, and after about twelve hours it returns. Tourists and locals at this time can walk along the bottom of the sea and admire the underwater world. However, on the disappearing beach, it is extremely important to observe safety measures and not to go close to the sea during high tide.
"Pig Beach" in the Bahamas
This is an unusual beach where pigs roam freely and swim. No one knows how they got here, but the animals feel very comfortable and are already accustomed to crowds of tourists who are delighted with the unusual zoo and come from all over the world specifically to swim in the company of pigs.
Navagio bay in Greece
Blue water, clean white sand, beautiful rocks and the main feature of the beach is a ship thrown ashore, which creates some kind of special surroundings here. Against the background of the ship, everyone who comes here is in a hurry to take a picture, some even scratch their names on the rusty ship. But getting to the beach by land will not work - the height of the rocks around the bay reaches 100-300 meters.
Beach inside a cliff in Mexico
The beach appeared as a result of military tests, when a bomb was dropped here.
But in the end it turned out incredibly cozy and unusual. Now it is a natural pool with crystal clear water. You can only get here by water.
Another beach with sand of an unusual color, the reason for which is a lot of dead coral microparticles thrown ashore. A nice bonus will be the purest water, diverse flora and fauna, and a small number of tourists.
The list, of course, is not exhaustive - there are a huge number of amazing places on our planet that are worth seeing!
