The platform for travelers TripAdvisor has published a rating of the best beaches in the world according to users – Travelers' Choice Awards. The rating was created based on the reviews travelers left on the site. Both beaches where you can swim and picturesque places that are not suitable for swimming were included in the rating.

1st place – Baia do Sancho, Fernando de Noronha, Brazil. This is not the first year that Baia do Sancho beach, which is located off the coast of Brazil on the volcanic island of Fernando de Noronha, has topped the rating. Due to the fact that the beach is remote, you can get here only by stone steps. The main highlight of Baia do Sancho is the majestic cliffs.

2nd place – Eagle Beach, Palm-Eagle Beach, Aruba – Aruba's widest beach with soft white sand, quiet and unspoilt. Four species of sea turtles live in Aruba, most of the turtle nests are located on Eagle Beach.

3rd place – Cable Beach, Broome, Australia – Great for sightseeing, walking, swimming and camel rides at sunset.

4th place – Reynisfjara Beach, Vik, Iceland – an amazing beach in the south of Iceland. Its main feature is that the sand here is black, because it was formed from solidified volcanic lava. The harsh rocks and the steel-hued sea add color to the place.

5th place – Grace Bay Beach, Grace Bay, Providenciales – a place where eternal summer reigns, a quiet and peaceful atmosphere and an ideal climate. The local coast is famous for its natural beauty, high-class facilities and impeccable cleanliness.
