These are some top unique beaches to visit in your lifetime. When you think of The Beach, you automatically think of palm trees, golden sand, and crashing waves. But, have you ever imagined a red beach or lying in the sand and having hot water from hot springs come rushing up beneath you? How about a beach where you can see the sun rise and set from the very same place? Beaches and islands are favorite travel destinations, and here are just a few of some pretty interesting ones.
Playa Las Galeras-Samana, Dominican Republic

The locals call Las Galeras-Samana “The Fisherman’s Beach”, and say it is the most beautiful beach you will have been on. It’s on the Samana Peninsula of the Dominican Republic.
While you can get there by road, the roads are very rutted, so take a boat to get there.
This is the perfect paradise beach that you fantasize about. Everything is technicolor, no one seems to be around, and the biggest dangers seem to be either getting hit in the head with a coconut or running out of rum.
You can hired a motorcycle driver to go buy you more! You'll rarely see anyone all day.
Besides the guy with the motorcycle, a woman appeared seemingly out of nowhere selling some coconut bread which is absolutely delicious. Really, what more could you need?
Sunrise Beach-Koh Lipe, Thailand

Just getting to Koh Lipe is an accomplishment in itself. I takes a six-hour minibus ride to catch a ferry. The ferry drops you off at a pontoon on Sunrise Beach, where you then get on a longboat which drops you off on the beach.
You'll love waking up to the sound of the longboats going out to sea each morning, sitting and taking in the idyllic views, and enjoying the calmness of the water. You'll see some of the prettiest sunrises ever, and will love the fact that you can go snorkeling right off the beach.
You can stay in a hotel that had cabanas right on the beach and the best part was watching the sun come up while you are still in bed. It’s remote location makes you feel like you truly got away from it all.
Madrigal Beach-Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica

Imagine getting to lie in the sun on a deserted beach, while monkeys play in the treetops of the jungle behind you, butterflies and dragonflies land on your tanned skin, and scarlet macaws fly overhead.
That is exactly what you get to do on this beach on the Osa Peninsula. And there’s a freshwater lagoon for swimming.
The jungle is right behind you and is full of monkeys, coati, big blue butterflies, and poison dart frogs.
The sunsets at this beach are stunning. It also happened to be one of those magical beaches where you could see the sunrise and set on the same beach.
While staying on this beach you may meet butterfly researchers, bird watchers, hikers, and artists.
The wide variety of people who come here are worth the journey itself.
The Split- Caye Caulker, Belize

Well, The Split in Belize definitely isn’t your typical beach.
The split is more of a waterway that bisects the island, and the locals and tourists have turned it into a beach.
It is a lively area with a beach bar where people congregate, swim, and lie out on the fishing docks or the little bit of sand. The best part of this beach is its laid back Rasta vibe.
Not only that, the water is stunningly clear, and if you walk over to the mangroves, you will find seahorses.
Seeing a seahorse for the first time is the equivalent of seeing a unicorn, a mystical creature. To actually see a real one will take your breath away!
Caye Caulker’s motto is “go slow”.
They believe in this motto so much, that one restaurant owner was even building a speed bump out of dirt in front of his restaurant for the bicycles that were going by. One thing’s for sure, on this beach you will forget that time even exists.
