A surfer’s paradise with pink sand at the most eastern point of Australia is the best beach in the world, according to Lonely Planet.
The Pass in Byron Bay, New South Wales, is suitable for both beginners and experienced surfers.
Sarakiniko Beach on Milos island, Greece, also ranked 5th on Lonely Planet’s list of the top 20 beaches in the world. The magazine noted that the impressive view from the volcanic cliffs and the cool waters compensate those who need to carry their own supplies to this beach.
“Centuries of erosion from waves and winds have created pools and ridges in the rocky formations on the beach, forming caves for exploration and alabaster rocks for jumps. Sunbathe on the rocks or use them as a point of access to glide into the water for some snorkeling,” the magazine continues.
For those who want to avoid crowds, Lonely Planet recommends visiting Sarakiniko in September or October. Even during the high season, it’s better to arrive early in the morning, when the only sound you hear is the wind and the waves.
