![Eastern edge of the Sancho beach](https://www.rd.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/GettyImages-1249410337.jpg?fit=700%2C467)
Baia do Sancho, Fernando de Noronha, Brazil
TripAdvisor named this stunning stretch of sand the No. 1 beach in the world, but it is not easy to get to. It’s on a volcanic island more than 200 miles from Brazil’s northeast coast, and the beach is only accessible by ladder. But after that, it’s all easy beach life as you enjoy the stunning turquoise waters and white sand beach surrounded by verdant tree-covered cliffs. This beach is also known for its vast array of wildlife.
What to do: Dive or snorkel in the warm clear waters for glimpses of sea turtles, rays, dolphins and reef sharks.
Where to stay: NANNAI Noronha Solar dos Ventos has a perfect location on a white sand beach with stellar views of the water. Reviewers on the TripAdvisor site all agree about the resort property: There’s excellent service from start to finish, impeccable rooms and delicious food at the onsite restaurant.

Reynisfjara Beach, Vik, Iceland
If the dramatic rock formations towering over the black sand beach look familiar, it’s probably because Game of Thrones also thought this scenery-stealing stretch of sand was noteworthy. However, with ice-cold water and waves that can reach up to 131 feet, this is a beach for admiring and photo taking—not swimming. While you’re in Iceland, you can also check out one of the world’s strangest food museums.
What to do: Reynisfjara Beach is popular with birdwatchers for the various types of seabirds spotted nearby, most famously, puffins.
Where to stay: Tucked into the sandstone cliffs and directly across from the beach, the Hótel VÃk à Mýrdal has a completely glass facade, so you’re sure to get views of the water—and maybe even a spot a puffin or two—before you even step foot outside. The clean and spacious modern rooms and on-site restaurant are a few of the reasons this property was a TripAdvisor Traveler’s Choice award winner for 2023.

Spiaggia dei Conigli, Lampedusa, Islands of Sicily, Italy
This southern Italian beach with its aqua waters and soft sand reminds some people of the Caribbean. TripAdvisor writes, “For a beautiful, small beach with no waves, warm crystal clear water, fish, soft white sand and a ton of sun on a small, friendly Italian island, this is the place!” The only downside: The 15-minute walk down a dirt path to reach the sand.

Siesta Beach, Sarasota, Florida
The only Florida entry in this year’s top beaches list, this sandy expanse is located on a barrier island in southwest Florida’s Gulf Coast. It’s a favorite beach vacation for families for the smooth white sand that’s as soft as talcum powder. It’s not the regular sand you’re used to either—it’s 99% pure quartz, washed down from the Appalachian Mountains and always cool to the touch. Part of a county park, the beach offers plenty of room for building sandcastles or kicking back with a good beach read without bumping into your neighbor. It’s common to see dolphins playing just offshore.
