1.Saud Beach, Philippines:
This beautiful beach on the coast of Luzon is bounded by the clear waters of the South China Sea. It stretches for two kilometers and thankfully the beach is still not on the radar of tour groups. The beach is one of those places on Earth which can still be called a ‘paradise’.

2.Ko Adang, Thailand:
It is not less than a miracle to find out beaches in Thailand that are still not filled with the hordes of tourists, but there do exist such beaches and ‘Ko Adang’ is one of them. Located about 30 km off the mainland, this archipelago of 51 islands is a part of Ko Tarutao National Marine Park. The crystal waters and the imposing rock formations at the beach remind one how the islands of Phi Phi, Phuket and Samui once were.

4.Yalong Bay, China:
No bay deserves a true bay except Yalong.
This is what the Chinese themselves think of this beach. Yalong Bay is a crescent shaped beach measuring 7 km in length. It is blessed with a climate that is pleasant throughout the year and the bay even has a nickname, ‘Eastern Hawaii’ but its coastline is twice that of Hawaii. The green hills, clear sea and the unsullied beach are graced with odd rocks and offers idyllic views.

5.China Beach, Vietnam:
This beautiful beach is associated with the Vietnam War because it was exactly here a few decades ago that the American troops first landed. It would have been terrible to be at the beach back then but today it is considered one of the finest beaches in Vietnam. It is a very long beach which stretches all the way from Da Nang beach to Cua Dai beach.
