Bali, Thailand or Maldives: the best beaches for a captivating vacation

Thousands of tourists dream of visiting paradise on Earth. We will tell you about the most popular coasts of Southeast Asia, as well as where to stay and what to see.

Bali

A picturesque island in the Indian Ocean. Summer here lasts all year round. The average temperature from May to October ranges from 25°C to 26°C.

• Nusa Dua

The most developed tourist area. It takes only 30 minutes to get from the airport. The beach is dominated by light sand and a gentle slope into the sea. The location is separated by security control. Several courses are offered for golfers.

There are not many attractions here, but they are there. We recommend visiting the Pasifika Museum. The exhibition hall contains more than 6,000 works of art. Among them are works by Rodin, Gauguin, Rousseau and Matisse.

• Ubud

A cozy town in the central part of the archipelago. The most famous coastline of Lovina is famous for its black sand. It is worth visiting the Ubud Palace and the Lempad House, a famous local sculptor and painter.

The neighborhood is characterized by rice terraces and mountain rivers. To see long-tailed macaques, head to the Monkey Forest. For those who love history, we recommend visiting the Puri Saren Agung Royal Palace Residence.

• Jimbaran

A real gastronomic paradise for tourists. The resort does not boast of any attractions at all. But this does not prevent it from receiving tens of thousands of travelers every year.

There are many restaurants on the sandy arc. Be sure to dine at one of them during sunset. In the evening, the heat subsides, and the coastal establishments take out tables on the sand. But keep in mind that to enjoy such a meal, you need to come early, starting from 17:00.

For a relaxing and measured vacation, the Legian promenade is suitable. It is famous for its steel-colored shores. The most affordable prices are on Kuta. By the way, it is the most visited resort in Bali. It has water parks, bars, clubs and shopping centers for every budget.

Thailand

The country is known for its diverse landscape: from mountains in the north to plains in the central part and beaches in the south. The tropical climate is characterized by a hot, humid season.

• Phuket

The most popular among tourists. It is better to go here from November to April. After all, the "tropical rainy season" begins from May to October.

The average water temperature ranges from 28°C. For families with children, the quiet Karon beach is perfect. For a lively nightlife, head to Patong.

• Krabi

The province has 130 islands. Travelers are breathless from the Khao Khanap Nam Cave adjacent to the city. And the power of the local nature is majestically demonstrated by the Huai To Waterfall. The sea here is very warm, about 29°C.

The best beaches are: Ao Nang, Hat Rai Leh West or Hat Noppharat Thara.

• Phi Phi

The archipelago surprises travelers with its paradisiacal coasts and lagoons. A large number of palm trees and marine life immerse guests in a world of incredible beauty. Diving here is a pleasure.

Underwater, you can meet stingrays, moray eels, tuna, sea turtles, as well as tiger and even whale sharks. By the way, the location is often chosen by newlyweds for their wedding. Moreover, the movie The Beach starring Leonardo DiCaprio was filmed on Phi Phi.

Maldives

A real oasis for tourists. The resorts are located on small islands. Vabbinfaru is considered the most expensive. To get to know the traditions and customs of the coastal village, choose the Four Seasons Resort. The service in the complex is at the highest level. If you want to be closer to civilization, go to Hithadhoo. High-rise buildings and highways have been built here. To relax with friends, go to Baros. Golf lovers should choose Kuredu. Courses in this sport are organized here. For famous Thai spa services, head to Raa.

• Fulhadhoo

One of the most beautiful beaches is located far from popular tourist routes. Therefore, guests here can fully enjoy the solitude. The coast is dominated by shallow, warm lagoons of aquamarine color.

• Digoura

An ideal choice for families with children as there are no strong waves here at all. The picturesque area is complemented by a home reef where you can observe marine life.

• North Male

The location is located near the airport. It offers many amenities for relaxation: sun loungers, hammocks, canopy beds. For a fun pastime, the island has inflatable slides. You can also go water skiing, jet skiing, etc.
