What are you waiting for? Choose your paradise.

Sand between your toes, salty ocean breezes, the melodic sound of ocean waves crashing at the shore—these are just a few of the ingredients to a picture perfect coastal escape. From the white-sand beaches of Bali to the cliff-hugging villages of Cinque Terre, this list of Backroads’ Top 10 Trips for Beach Lovers checks all the boxes for a proper beach vacation. While there’s likely a hammock with your name on it on each of these trips, it wouldn’t be a Backroads adventure without some heart-pumping activities thrown into the otherwise relaxing agenda.
