FAVOURITE BEACHES!

Google ‘beach’ and Wikipedia will tell you that ‘A beach is a landform along a body of water. It usually consists of loose particles, which are often composed of rock, such as sand, gravel, shingle, pebbles, or cobblestones. The particles composing a beach are occasionally biological in origin, such as mollusc shells or coralline algae.

Some beaches have man-made infrastructure, such as lifeguard posts, changing rooms, and showers. They may also have hospitality venues (such as resorts, camps, hotels, and restaurants) nearby. Wild beaches, also known as undeveloped or undiscovered beaches, are not developed in this manner. Wild beaches can be valued for their untouched beauty and preserved nature.

Beaches typically occur in areas along the coast where wave or current action deposits and reworks sediments’

A beach is technically a geological form by water as the Wikipedia description demonstrates. But there is something more magical about beaches that this technical description doesn’t capture! The above text only hints at that magic as certain words jump out to partially reveal the appeal of the beach: water, sand, pebbles, shells, wild, untouched, beauty, nature, wave.

We all know of many places where land meets water, where natures’ untouched wild beauty mixes water, sand, pebbles and shells for our pleasure. I imagine; also, that everyone has their own ‘favourite beach’.

MEPM Property specialised in many destinations with ‘favourite beaches’. Here are a few of our top picks.

Alderney – Best for Rugged Wilderness!

A walk along the coastal paths is the best way to explore Alderney’s many beaches. Set in bays, with rock pools, crashing waves, sand dunes and reminders of the German Occupation from stunning forts to monuments, Alderney is a true explorers’ beach experience.

Barcelona – Best for City Surfers!

Barcelona; best known for its architecture and culture, is home to 4.2km of golden beaches located just 10 minutes from the bustle of the City Centre. With beach huts and sun lovers basking in the Spanish Sun, these beaches are also popular for kitesurfing.

Cuba – Best for Powder White Sand!

Cuba offers the very best Caribbean beaches. Powder fine white sand, scattered palm trees and turquoise water are available in abundance with diverse beaches to choose from – especially given the difference between the north and south of the island. The diving opportunities are endless with diverse underwater flora and fauna. Choose from meticulously groomed resort beaches, hidden strips of sand found at the end of jungle tracks or coral reef stop off points.

The Heart of Europe (THOE), Dubai – Best for Exclusivity
