Praia da Marinha is a picture-perfect spot in the Algarve, encircled by majestic rock formations and golden limestone cliffs. Located around one hour west of Faro Airport, the protected beach is easily accessible by vehicle or foot in just ten minutes. The breathtaking Benagil Cave is only half an hour away. Explore the beach from above on the Seven Hanging Valleys Trail, which winds along the cliffside, or unwind on the beach itself by descending a lengthy flight of steps. A beach umbrella is a must-have if you want to spend the day here; although a little café is open all summer, there are no beach clubs.

Although most foreign beachgoers don't think of the United Kingdom, the breathtaking beauty of this stretch of Dorset coastline makes it an exception. When the weather is warm enough, swimming under the dordle shadow of Durdle Door, a huge granite arch that falls into the ocean, is like being on another planet. Even when the weather turns chilly, a trek along the cliffs overlooking the Jurassic Coast and the verdant hills of Dorset is an unforgettable experience.

The unusual form of Zlatni Rat, a small triangle protruding into the water, provides even more space for sunbathers to spread out on the beach. This place is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts because to its abundance of water activities and breathtaking scenery, which includes a turquoise sea, a dark green spit of woodland, and a white sandy beach. Experience the beautiful, calm seas by taking a windsurfing lesson, renting a paddleboard, or just going snorkeling. For a Croatian vacation that the whole family can enjoy, this is the spot to go since there are food stands and lifeguards stationed along the beach.
