Palm Beach, Barbuda
Palm Beach in Barbuda is most known for its sparkling white sands tinged with pink by the countless number of seashells that have washed up onto shore. You can only get here by boat, so when you’re here it’s best to make a day of it. If it’s possible to get bored of the beach we suggest paying a visit to Frigate Bird Sanctuary, where it’s home to over 170 incredible species!
Lord Howe Island, Australia
This tiny little island is perfect if you’re seeking a holiday away from the hustle and bustle. Tourists are capped at just 400, and the preferred method of transportation is by bike. You’ll find several golden sand beaches here with the crispest water you can imagine. We hear it’s amazing for snorkelers!
Koh Lanta, Thailand
Take an hour long speedboat from Krabi airport and head to Koh Lanta. Home to nine beaches surrounded by the turquoise Andaman sea, the island has nature reserves and beaches where you won’t see anyone. Not secret enough? The further south you go, the more secluded it gets!
Lygaries, Skiathos
You’ll have to hire a 4×4 escort from the local town to get to this beach, but we promise it’s worth it. Once you’re there you’ll be able to appreciate a whole 200 yards of unspoiled crisp sand, and if you get thirsty there’s a single beach bar for those all-important cocktails whilst sunbathing.
Plaga de Saleccia, Corsica
This beach is perfect for those looking for ultimate seclusion. Why? Because you’d have to walk across a desert to get here (or take a boat). You’ll think it’s an oasis once you arrive because this stunning beach looks too good to be true.
Isola Bella, Italy
If you prefer your beaches a little more scenic then you should definitely visit Isola Bella in Italy. Catch a boat from Sicily and head over to the pebble beach that has an islet you can only get to by a strip of beach when the tide is down. Be careful not to get stuck there though!
Praia de Ursa, Portugal
For the explorers out there, Praia de Ursa is just about perfect. Only a determined few can be bothered to make the effort to get to this beach, as you’ll have to scramble over rocks to get there! It’s not for those who prefer their beaches for sunbathing, but for an explorer seeking solitude, it’s heaven.
