The World’s Most Beautiful Beaches

White sand, palm trees, sunshine and cocktails. That’s the image most people think of when they think about a relaxing holiday. They do not want to be walking on stone beaches with rubbish everywhere.

Hotel chains around the world seek out beautiful beaches to develop their hotels because of this. It is understandable. For many people, a good beach can be the difference between a good holiday and a bad one.
