Ko Yao Yai is lined with various beaches that will keep sunseekers happy for days on end. Though the island has few of the wide beaches seen in nearby Phuket, some pretty stretches of soft white sand are to be found here.

Swimmers take note that most bays on Yao Yai drain into mudflats at low tide, so you’ll need to time your visits carefully if you’re hoping to take a dip in the sea. But regardless of when you go, there’s a good chance of having the beach all to yourself, and the views out across Phang Nga Bay are fantastic.

The relatively little-known island of Miyakojima in Okinawa is home to Yonaha Maehama Beach, a pristine 7-kilometer stretch of shoreline ranked among the best sandy beaches in Japan. Yonaha Maehama Beach is most popular from the spring through the autumn and is the main attraction on Miyako Island. The beach hosts the swimming section of an annual "Strongman" triathlon at the end of April.

Through the years, El Nido has been famous due to the picturesque sceneries found in the islands surrounding it; both on land and under the sea.

Because of the outstanding beauty of the islands around it, the mainland of El Nido seemed boring. However, not known to many, the mainland of El Nido is also home to many breathtaking sceneries and beautiful beaches.

Nyang Nyang Beach (Pantai Nyang Nyang) is one of the cleanest and most beautiful beaches in all of Bali. The glistening white sand and turquoise waters make this beach a must-see location during your visit to Uluwatu.

If you are planning a trip down south to visit all of the best Uluwatu Beaches, be sure to check out Nyang Nyang while you’re at it!

Pom Pom Island is a small coral reef island in the Celebes Sea approximately 30 kilometers northeast of Semporna town, Sabah, East Malaysia.

The island is 2.3 kilometers in circumference at the high tide line with a fringing coral reef 4 kilometers long. The island is flat sand with a maximum elevation of fewer than 2 meters above the HT line. The reef flat is only 50–75 meters wide to the west and several hundred meters wide around most of the island.

The island has a white sand coral beach and is a significant nesting location site for green and hawksbill turtles. Relatively undeveloped, the island is one of the most popular dive destinations in the Semporna district.
