There is an undeniable magic in discovering the perfect beach.
The fresh air, the gentle rhythm of the waves lapping the shores, the warm soft sand and expansive views that all relax the mind.
And with endless beaches to pick from around the world the Escapes by BFP team has curated its favourite coastal spots for you to consider visiting.
Palm Cove Beach is a slice of paradise on Queensland’s sun-drenched coast, where pristine golden sands meet calming azure waters, and dolphins and whales are frequently spotted from the jetty.
Flanked by majestic palm trees, the beach is a perfect fusion of untamed beauty and serene luxury. And with a local population of just 2,000 people this sandy beach is usually crowd free, providing an idyllic haven.
Hidden within a dramatic section of Kauai’s untamed coastline, Honopu Beach is a captivating gem largely untouched by human intervention, as the only way to reach it is by swimming from an offshore boat or from the nearby Kalalau Beach.
Famed for providing the epic setting for Raiders of the Lost Ark and King Kong, the towering cayenne-coloured cliffs that frame the beach form an awe-inspiring backdrop to the golden sands and turquoise waters of the Pacific Ocean.
Nestled on the tranquil island of Seram in Indonesia, which has very few inhabitants, Ora Beach is an untouched paradise.
The crystal-clear waters of the lagoon are framed by towering cliffs and lush green slopes, creating breathtaking views. Vibrant coral reefs are just below the surface, creating a kaleidoscope of colour beneath the tranquil waves.
This secluded sanctuary offers the ultimate escape for those wishing to reconnect with nature in a completely natural environment.
On the idyllic island of La Digue, Anse Source d’Argent is a mesmerising blend of powdery white sands, clear turquoise waters, and dramatic granite boulders.
Fringed by swaying palm trees and surrounded by lush greenery, this beach offers an extraordinary sense of seclusion and serenity.
Its breathtaking views and tranquil atmosphere make it the perfect place to relax and forget about the bustle of everyday life.
Marathonisi, also known as Turtle Island, is a hidden gem in Zakynthos, where soft white sands meet crystal-clear waters.
This unspoiled haven serves as a vital nesting ground for endangered loggerhead sea turtles, so visitors must tread carefully.
Explore its stunning sea caves by boat or snorkel, breathing in the pine-scented air. With no crowds or distractions, the island offers peace and natural beauty.
The Dune du Pilat, Europe’s tallest sand dune, is a striking natural wonder.
Its golden slopes can form peaks as high as 300 feet. The sun reflects off the sand, creating a soft glow that changes with the light.
The surrounding pine forest adds a refreshing earthy scent to the air, with the distant sound of the Atlantic waves crashing on the shore. From the top of the dune, the views are expansive, offering a truly unique experience.
Nestled in the remote western archipelago of Taiwan, Jibei Island in Penghu County remains an untouched paradise, far from the reach of bustling city life.
Accessible by a boat ride from the North Sea Tourist Centre, the island offers water sports, sun umbrellas, and cosy wooden cabins for a tranquil stay.
However, it’s the hidden gem of a secluded sandspit, a mere 15-minute walk away, that is a must-visit.
Truly unspoilt, with only the soft murmur of the waves and a stretch of perfect it is a sanctuary for those seeking a remote hideaway beach.
Tucked deep within New Zealand’s stunning Abel Tasman National Park, Awaroa Beach is a secluded paradise, framed by clover-green forests and sparkling turquoise waters.
Accessible by boat, kayak, or on foot, the beach offers a stunning escape into the tranquillity of nature.
Its unspoilt beauty has earned it the affectionate title, ‘the People’s Beach,’ after locals crowdfunded its purchase in 2016.
