So, you may ask what makes a beach the best out of the pack. Let’s dive in to find the reasons. The best beach is subjective and depends on the traveler. Some prefer long stretches of sand with ample activities and swarms of people to watch, while others desire deserted shorelines with calm waters. The beach is also a great spot to reconnect with nature, enjoy outdoor activities, and get free fun. Many different criteria define the perfect beach, such as:
- The sand
- The waves
- Level of seclusion
