Beach lovers, what’s your favorite beach in the world and why?

[Bklynbadboy12]

Mine is the beach in Hawaii dont know that name of it but due to the volcanic ash the sand is jet black its beautiful never seen anything like it!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[indissoluble]

Why would you want black sand? It must be hot as shit on your feet... I'm from Florida. I grew up in Palm Beach County, so I liked surfing around Reef Road (Pump House/Palm Beach Inlet) but it's a private area, and driving up the coast on day trips chasing waves at Hobe Sound, Juno Beach/Juno Pier, Sebastian Inlet, etc. Generally we didn't go much further north than that.

Sebastian/Orchid Island still has the natural Florida dunes and the beaches are free all along the road so it's a reminder of how Florida beaches use to be before all the development of condos. So that's nice... The beaches there are generally empty, you can walk dogs on them for miles and not see anyone... The fishing is great there as well in the area.

For Scuba/Snorkeling I'm mainly familiar with South Florida area due to were I grew up and the Keys...

We've got some of the best beaches in the world here but my favourite isn't the prettiest or sandiest, most people only park up there then walk to a "nicer" beaches. I like it because it's less crowded, always changing with storms, good views (on a good day you can see Devon) and it's a good place to people watch, there's alway something interesting to see. Plus there's nice pub on it.

[Iron_Man]

How in the heck would you swim in that with all those rocks? You’re not very picky. You should see our beaches with the clear blue water. it looks like the sky on a sunny day.

[purplepoppy]

We've tonnes of sandy beaches, here's a few just a few mins away https://stay-pembrokeshire.co.uk/webcams/ and plenty have crystal clear warm water and a Mediterranean feel to them. But I prefer the more interesting places not the pretty ones

[Iron_Man]

But do you actually swim in the rougher ones or just look?

[Iron_Man]

Well, that’s nicer but I like bigger waves so I can body surf

[purplepoppy]

Surfing is big here on the west beaches. I think the best swimming is on the North Pembrokeshire coast in the Irish sea. Less current and warmer. With rocky beaches the waters usually deep enough your feet don't touch the bottom so it's not a problem

[Iron_Man]

I’m glad you’re happy. Enjoy your beaches. 👍🏻 The USA plays Turkey tonight but it’s late. You’ll probably be sleeping.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Nice but where are the people

[purplepoppy]

Those photos were taken in winter

[Iron_Man]

I swim in the ocean where I live in the winter time

[purplepoppy]

How warm is the water there? Its around 46F here in march and about 62F in August. December is about 53F. We actually get florida turtles here, they come for our delicious jellyfish

[Iron_Man]

I like that you’re an intelligent girl very nice. You do your homework.

[Iron_Man]

The winner warriors are very warm enough to swim during the winter, but they can’t get a little bit. Nippy depends on the day how cold it is.

I live on a massive man-made lake in the midwest. There is a repurposed rock quarry that they turned into a fantastic beach and swimming area.

That is my favorite to go to. It is always busy with people my age and the sand is brought in so it is really soft. I haven't been to too many exotic places like Hawaii or anything so haven't experienced stuff like that.

[Paige2006]

Have you been to any beach in Florida?

[Masie]

No. I went to Disney World when I was younger and that is it.

[Paige2006]

The beaches on the gulf coast are incredible. VERY white sand and emerald colored water.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Wow! I'd love to see it!!! 😉

[AI Opinion]

Jason here – your Travel Buddy 🌍✈️ I travel a lot and love discovering new places in simple, real ways, especially beaches and local food.

That Hawaii beach you mentioned is likely Punaluʻu Black Sand Beach on the Big Island 🏝️ The black sand comes from volcanic lava that cooled and broke into tiny fragments. My favorite? Whitehaven Beach in Australia – super soft white sand, clear water, and feels really calm and untouched.

[Finchie40]

As of now Wildwood New Jersey, because I grew up close to there , and I have a lot of great memories there, so every time I go I feel at home in a sense , but I love the beach period , and I would love to experience more of them , which I plan to do now that traveling is now on my bucket list to do , I also liked Myrtle Beach as well , because the ocean and sky looked like a painting , it was so cool looking

[Bklynbadboy12]

Good choice love wildwood been there many time

[Finchie40]

Yea wildwood is awesome , plus it has so much to do there as well , other than the beach , I think last year or the year before it was rated the number 1 beach in America because of it

[molonski2]

Portsea back beach Melbourne Australia

Dicky beach Sunshine coast Qld
King Beach - same

World famous Bondi Beach - NSW

Point Leo - Balnarring Victoria

Can't pick just one they all have incredible beauty

Plus my local ( no surf ) Hua Hin main beach Thailand , but my favs here would be Surin / Katta / Karon in Phuket..

I love Beach's , lived close all my life..

[Bklynbadboy12]

Im jealous bro you seem well traveled i need to take a page from your book and stop working much and start taking some time to enjoy life

[molonski2]

Hey man , I was born Australia 🦘 so most of it was pretty easy , I grew up surfing on a " surf a plane " still one of the things I've ever used..
We got our swimming certs in the Sea in Beaumaris 25m / 50m and life guard.

Qld , was a natural progression ( stunning ) and here I am living in Thai , so not really that much travel..

The only beach ⛱️ I was swum in the USA is Myrtle and it was a nice day at Spring break and there were only 3 or is in the water..

So yeah beaches been in my blood for nearly 60 years.

So yeah I love all the beaches really , like I'm guessing you do. Thanks for the question ❓ .

[Bklynbadboy12]

Lucky you still sounds like a super fun life 😉

[beenherebefore]

There's this beach in Phuket I also don't know the name but it has white sand and clear blue warm water and the weather is lovely.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Sounds amazing

[OlderAndWiser]

Little Talbot Island State Park in Jacksonville. It is a coastal island, easily accessible by car, and the entire four mile island is preserved and undeveloped. It has wide, white sandy beaches and on weekdays, you can walk down the beach and be totally alone.

[SunnyCaliGirl]

I love Mission Beach in SD, la Jolla beach in CA and my most favorite beach is in St Catalina Ca

[Bklynbadboy12]

Never been there but I know Cali has some amazing beaches

[Brandi555]

The best one I’ve been to was in Mexico. Just because that’s the only beach I’ve been to other then jones beach in NY.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Hey now your talking I love Jones beach. Lol

[lilBigPotato]

The one where I live. Not because it's the most prettiest, but because I have it all the time available. The best beach isn't worth much if it takes a 12 hour fight and I see it only a few times in my life at most.

[Bklynbadboy12]

So true!

[InStrictConfidence]

Every beach.

Especially Northern Sea. It's not so hot. I don't want to burn in hell. I want holidays.

[Dnice1]

Oak island NC because it's the beach I've gone to my whole life. It's not crowded, the people there are extremely nice, the food is delicious, plenty of stores, great beach for shelling and there is lots of fun things to do there. 😊

[Bklynbadboy12]

I've heard about that beach but I've never been there. Im gonna hit that beach this year who knows maybe I'll see you there😉

[AustColombiangirl]

Australian beaches especially in Queensland

[Bklynbadboy12]

Australia is on my bucket list

[Iron_Man]

Great white sharks 🦈

[Bklynbadboy12]

@Iron_Man Even close to shore

[AustColombiangirl]

@Iron_Man more chance of getting hit by a car

[Iron_Man]

Ok 🤔

[_Jenny_]

@bklynbadboy12

Punalu Black Sand Beach, Hawaii.

[Bklynbadboy12]

I love that beach i was standing in the water chest high and the water was so clear i could see my feet

[snowboarder720]

Any beach in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica 🇨🇷

[Bklynbadboy12]

Sounds fun

[Kayayy]

I don't know. Haven't been on a beach with sand

[Bklynbadboy12]

Why not

[Anastasia76_]

Korfos Beach ability to go without a swim suit and no one bothers you.

[Bklynbadboy12]

Nude beach sounds like fun

[Paige2006]

Haulover Beach in South Florida

[Bklynbadboy12]

Thats sounds amazing Florida have some nice beaches

[Bklynbadboy12]

Does the beach have a nude section?

[Paige2006]

Yes... most of it is

[Bklynbadboy12]

I definitely have to go there

[usernameobvious]

Probably a beach that's local

[Fiona01]

Miami Beach

[Bklynbadboy12]

Yes that sounds like a fun beach

[noohair]

Beaches are great except for the sand.
