Who doesn’t love the gentle whoosh of turquoise water against sand? If you’re keen for your next holiday to be a sojourn by the sea, here are some dreamy options, both near and far.
Greece
With so many incredible beach destinations right on the doorstep it’s easy not to think about going further afield. However, there’s one specific beach destination that we’re wander-lusting over right now and that’s Greece – the Mediterranean megastar! Exquisite islands, beautiful coastline, ancient stories and delicious food all play their part in the worldwide appeal of this fabulous place.
Families should look to the dramatic beauty of Greece’s largest island, Crete, where you’ll find Daios Cove, a five-star hotel with a spectacular setting on a private sandy bay. Think luxury contemporary villas and suites with private pools, great facilities and an exclusive Scott Dunn Explorers kids’ club. For couples, we’re loving the small Greek island of Mykonos, known for its white-washed villages and sparkling blue sea. Santa Marina Resort & Villas, located 20 minutes from Mykonos Town, has its own private beach with beautiful clear waters, where you’ll find cabanas stretched out along the beach, attentive service, and peace and seclusion.
Madagascar
Known as the Great Red Island, Madagascar is situated off Africa’s coast, and remains a relatively off-the-radar destination. It has some of the world’s most beautiful marine environments, with shallow turquoise waters, pristine coral reefs and a mainland boasting unique forests with endemic wildlife.
