Mediterranean - a perennial favorite beach holiday for travelers from all over the world. Its shores are caressed by the waters of 10 seas, and tourists face the difficult task of finding the beach of their dreams.

The Mediterranean region is a Mecca for lovers of pampering clean beach and swim in the azure waters under the proudly roaring Blue flag(Editor's note: The Blue Flag is an international award given to the cleanest and safest beaches and marinas in the world). Have you known anyone on the Adriatic? Friends resting on the shore Aegean Sea, and what about Ionica’s enemies? There is no need to worry that a number of unknown bodies of water have suddenly appeared on the planet. All of the listed seas are part of the Mediterranean: Adriatic, Alboran, Balearic, Ionian, Cyprus, Cretan, Levantine, Libyan, Ligurian, Tyrrhenian and Aegean, and even the Marmara, Black and Sea of ​​Azov. With such diversity, how can you find the perfect place? Seek professional advice, of course!

5 best beaches in the Mediterranean

1. Navajo Bay Beach
Place: Zakynthos,
Sea: Ionian

Until the 1980s, the beach was called "St. George" after the monastery located nearby, but after a dramatic pursuit by the Greek police of a smuggler's ship, the beach was renamed Navaio (Greek Ναυάγιο - shipwreck). The 20th century pirates were never caught by law enforcement officers: the anti-heroes ran the ship aground and disappeared. A few years later, the ship was washed ashore by a storm. The rusting giant remains there to this day, becoming the main highlight of the picturesque beach with snow-white sand.

2. Beach Blue Lagoon
Where: Oludeniz,
Sea: Aegean

Small resort village Oludeniz is a 15-minute drive from Fethiye. The literal translation of Ölüdeniz is “Dead Sea”, but don’t let it scare you. On the contrary, Oludeniz is known for having national reserve Turkey's Blue Lagoon, which includes the beach of the same name. In addition to its unusual appearance, the beach, protected from the winds by mighty rocks, is known for its abundance of entertainment. For example, paragliding is fashionable here, and in the fall the International Air Games are held in the Blue Lagoon.

3. Beaches of Cinque Terre
Place: Liguria, Italy
Sea: Ligurian

An extraordinary decision, among the countless beaches of resort areas in Italy, is to choose the beaches of the Cinque Terre - a national park in Italy, where they care so much about the environment and the preservation of natural and man-made attractions that driving is prohibited here. Cinque Terre included in the list World Heritage UNESCO. It is made up of 5 village villages: Monterosso al Mare (or simply Monterosso), Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore. It is worth keeping in mind that the beaches of the Cinque Terre are pebble and stone, with the exception of beach area in Monterosso, but believe me, the surrounding color is worth it.

4. Ses Illetas Beach
Place: Formentera, Spain
Sea: Balearic

Formentera - 1 of 4 most large island Balearic archipelago. Together with three other islands: Ibiza, Menorca and Mallorca, they are part of the “golden fund” of beach holidays on the planet. And yet, we opt for the futuristic Ses Illetes Beach in the north of Formentera, which is so clean, fresh and bright that you can’t help but rinse your tourist feet before visiting it. Nearest locality to the beach - the respectable village of La Savina.

5. Stiniva Beach
Place: Vis, Croatia
Sea: Adriatic

The picturesque island of Vis is located in southern Croatia off the Dalmatian coast. The main town is the island of Vis, the same name, and the most notable beach is Stiniva. The beach is protected by rocks, and locals even call it secret, which is funny, given the fact that Stiniva received the title of best beach in Europe in 2016. However, its setting really doesn’t lack for intimacy. You can get here either by land (the nearest settlement is the village of Žuzhets) or by water from the side of Rukavats Bay. The beach “covering” is small pebbles.

Jaz Beach, Montenegro

Jaz Beach is one of three largest beaches Montenegrin coast. Its length is about 1200 meters, and it is located just two kilometers north of the main tourist center of Montenegro - Budva.

If you want to plunge headlong into cultural life, then popular parties are regularly held on the beach, where you can dance until the morning and watch the sunrise while sitting on the shore.

Canuelo Beach, Costa del Sol, Spain

The Costa del Sol is one of the most beautiful coastlines in southern Spain. It got its name due to the huge amount of sun that shines on the coast almost all year round. Along the sea line there are a number of tourist towns with magical coves hidden from prying eyes. Many tourists choose to travel in this region instead of staying in large bustling cities such as Barcelona. As for the beaches themselves, finding a deserted shore is not so easy, but if you are adventurous and not afraid of a challenge, you can find many hidden coves hidden along the coast. Of the huge number of beaches on the coast, Playa del Cañuelo is one of the most charming. It is located within the Acantilados de Maro-Cerro Gordo park, so visitors will have to leave their car in the parking lot and take a free shuttle bus to get to their destination. However, it is worth it because even on summer weekends, everyone can find a place of solitude on this beach and enjoy the stunning scenery and mountains that surround the beach. Moreover, this “secret” bay - beautiful place to watch marine life and snorkel.

Liepaja beach, Latvia

Liepaja Beach, located on the western coast of Latvia, is one of the most beautiful beaches in Europe. Back in the 19th century, Russian nobles and even the emperor himself and his family came here. And in 2001, the beach received an international quality mark, the Blue Flag, an award given to beaches for meeting quality criteria, cleanliness and uniqueness. The coast amazes even the most experienced seaside holiday enthusiasts with its white sand. And for those who love long promenades along the seashore, there is great news - after a storm and high tide, you can find stunningly beautiful shells and even amber on the coast. Besides this, if you want more active rest, then in Liepaja a wide variety of cultural events take place throughout the beach season: there are parties under open air, and performances by famous bands, and delicious gourmet restaurants.

Saharun Beach, Croatia

Over the past few years, Croatia, and in particular the city of Dubrovnik, has become extremely popular among tourists thanks to the famous TV series Game of Thrones. However, this country is famous not only for the fact that it served as the backdrop for the filming of episodes in Quiet Harbor, but also for its beaches, which are considered one of the most beautiful in Europe. White pebbles on the ocean floor and a cloudless sky emphasize the beauty and clarity of the water, which sometimes resembles the Caribbean Sea more than the Adriatic. Saharun is one of the most beautiful and little-known beaches in Croatia. It is located in the northern part of the island of Dugi Otok, in Northern Dalmatia, which still remains little known despite the popularity of Croatia at present. Descending between the villages of Bozava and Veli Rat, you will discover wonderful beach. It is ideal for families with small children, as it is very shallow here. From June to September there are two beach bars, and you can rent sun loungers and umbrellas, as well as sailing boats. In summer, the 4-kilometer route to the beach can be covered by a small train, while admiring the beauty of nature.

Navajo beach, Zakynthos island, Greece

Many of us were attracted to stories about pirates and sunken treasure ships as children. Most of the sunken ships are located at the bottom of the sea depths under the water column. However, there is a magical beach in Navajo Bay in Greece, by visiting which you can see not only the incredible beauty of nature and the perfect transparent blue water, but also… castaway smuggler ship! The bay got its name precisely in honor of the ship, which is the main attraction of this beach. Locals also call this bay “shipwreck beach.”

You can only get to Navajo by ship, since the beach from land is surrounded by inaccessible and high cliffs and the way to it is open only through the sea. Despite the fact that getting to this bay is not so easy, it is very popular among tourists, so you won’t be bored on the beach and you will probably make new acquaintances.
