Good morning Phoenix and Happy Top 10 Tuesday! It’s going to be a
long, hot summer, at least here at Phoenix. In keeping with that theme,
here’s a list of the top 10 beaches. Have you been to any of them?
• Seychelles: One of the most photographed beaches in the world. Pale
pink sands sparkle against a backdrop of towering granite boulders.
Turquoise waters are relatively shallow and protected from ocean waves
by a reef.
• Maldives: Straddling the equator southwest of Sri Lanka, the soft air enveloping the archipelago blends into a beautiful palm fringed haze.
• Bora Bora, Tahiti: The name says it all. Isolated beaches, intimate hotels, and quiet atmosphere.
• The Hamptons, New York: The unspoiled shoreline begins around
Southampton and runs each to the end of the island at Montauk. One of
the hip spots for the air kissing, well-heeled set.
• Lanikai Beach,
Hawaii: Half a mile of sparkling sand, palm trees swaying over a white
beach, lush tropical plants and endless sunshine.
• Nantucket
Island, Massachusetts: The most popular beaches on this island are
Surfside and Children’s. Relatively calm waters and plenty of sand.
Madaket Beach is known for its rougher surf and not to be missed
sunsets. Quidnet Beach provides great views of Sankaty Head lighthouse.
• Fraser Island, Australia: Queensland coast 161 miles northeast of
Brisbane. Fraser Island is the world’s largest sand island. It is a
World Heritage Site, with 640 square miles of unspoiled natural
paradise.
• St. Bart’s: One of many islands in the Caribbean Sea,
this one stands out with its blend of French chic and island relaxation.
Popular with the Jet Set. The 8-mile-long island is edged by 20
beaches and small coves.
• Langkawi, Malaysia: The name translates
into “the land of one’s wishes”. The island’s historic origin is as a
reputed refuge for pirates. It has since become a modern hideaway for
the traveler seeking an escape.
• Kauna’oa Bay, Hawaii: Located on
the Kohala Coast of the Big Island. Plenty of white sand, palm trees,
and calm, clear blue water.
