The Wandering Soul: The Most Beautiful Beaches Gallery

Imagine a vast expanse of pristine blue, with waves tenderly lapping the rocks on the shore...

Yes! Today, it's going to be a breathtaking countdown of the top 10 best beaches in the world, along with dazzling photography from all over the world!

X. Palolem Beach, Goa, India

Yess...what better than to start with home? Goa's most remote yet posh beach, it is a favourite for people looking for peace and quiet in hermit huts. By far the cleanest beach in India, its crystal blue waters attracted the makers of the Bourne Supremacy. When in need of an exotic foreign beach, they zeroed in on Palolem, and Matt Damon was heard saying that it was one of his favourite shooting locations in the Bourne trilogy.

IX. Fiji Islands Beaches

This tiny set of islands, most well known for its Spring Water and Mineral Water also boasts of some of the world's THE best beaches. While most beaches are similar in their soft, white sand, Fiji also offers a remarkable number of activities on its shores, the most memorable being snorkeling with colourful turtles and Fiji's Blue Devil Fish.

VIII. The Dead Sea Shore, Jordan

The majesty of this beach lies not in its sandy shores, but the very essence of death that hangs around it. While normally, beaches have salt content of 3-4%, the Dead Sea is 30% salt, enough to kill all traces of life underwater. Bathing would not be a very good idea as even a tiny drop of water entering your eye would cause unimaginable pain. Taking in its grim beauty would be the best thing you can do while walking on its salty shores, or reading this blog.

VII. Olu Deniz, Turkey

Olu Deniz is the perfect mix of everything - a touch of serenity, a dash of glamour, with boating activities thrown in. A must-visit for beach lovers.

VI. White Haven Beach, USA
