When thinking of tropical locations or relaxation vacations, most people talk about warm sun beating down on their skin, clear, blue ocean waters, and white sand between their toes.
That sounds nice, right?
But what about pink sand between your toes? Yes, there are places that actually have pink sand, and they’re beautiful! Pink sand gets its color from broken coral pieces, calcium carbonate materials from marine creatures, as well as seashells. Sometimes, the sand has the slightest highlight of pink, but the shoreline and the water’s edge is where the pink will be most vivid.
There are quite a few areas with pink sand beaches, but here are some that stand out to us!

This beautiful beach is located on Bermuda’s South Shore and is a great place to visit if you’re looking for some relaxation.
This beach is also family friendly, with many activities such as snorkeling, boogie boarding, and paddle boarding. Because this beach is shaped like a horseshoe (hence the name), it’s sheltered from larger waves.
Bars near the beach make it easy to grab some burgers and fish sandwiches, ice cream, and Bermuda’s national drink, the Rum Swizzle.

This beach is located on a small island of the Bahamas (it’s so small you can travel the Harbour Island by foot!). Not only is the beach here stunning, there are soo many great activities to take part of.
One of the coolest activities you can do at Pink Sands Beach is to take a boat tour to go swim with pigs! Yes, pigs! You’ll boat over to a smaller island where you can swim alongside these porkers and even feed them. From there you’ll head over to another island where you can partake in a Bahamian food tasting!
If you’re not into swimming with pigs, that’s okay, you can always just set up a towel on the beach and enjoy the views and play in the crystal clear, blue waters!

This island is found in the northeastern Caribbean and consists of small village communities and is known for its natural beaches.
What’s cool about this island is that one side of Barbuda is touched by the Atlantic Ocean, with its dark blue color and beaches filled with driftwood, while the other side of the island is touched by the Caribbean sea, which is where you can find the pink sand beaches and bright blue waters.
Take in the natural beauty, relax and interact with locals. Barbuda isn’t known for its tourism, so you won’t see organized events and activities that you would in larger resort towns, nor will you find tourist attractions or nightlife on this island. Instead, expect blissful peace.

This is an island that is located on the southwest coast of Crete, Greece. It’s more of a sandbar, meaning it can be submerged under the water at certain times. If you’re hanging out in Crete, you can wade out to the island, but don’t expect to see any beach chairs there, though! If you’re up for this adventure you’ll be rewarded with sightings of rare plants and sea creatures, such as the loggerhead sea turtles. Take note – if you’re caught removing any plants or animals, you could be given a big fine!
Most of the time, you’ll see the stunning pink sand on the island and when the sand is pink, it is very pink. However, there can be times where you don’t see the pink sand: this is due to wind conditions, the season, and even the tide motions. But even if you don’t see the sand in its pink beauty, you’ll always be able to feel the softness of the sand on this island. It’s been described as “soft as dust.” The waters surrounding are warm and calm, so it’s a great spot to bring young ones to play.
This island can get busy, so if you’re looking for more of a relaxed environment, it’s recommended to go during the late spring and early summer.

​There are a lot of reasons that you should consider traveling more. For one, traveling causes physical and psychological changes in you. Today, one can fly for less money, and having a job or a family to cater for does not mean you can’t travel during the weekend or even during holidays. Here are some great ways that traveling can benefit you:

​Traveling is a way to lower your stress levels and reduce a risk of heart disease. Doing something different like traveling other than sitting at your work place all day will surely get you feeling great. Most persons find that wandering abroad has helped solve their depression and anxiety problems. Yes, traveling can help in having a healthier mind.

​Most times, a lot of persons get caught up in the daily anxieties and hurdles of life. Remaining in that cycle can actually cause you great harm health-wise. As an alternative, traveling is a very viable option as it is a natural way of taking a break from all the stress. So make plans and prepare in advance before taking that big break. You’ll be happy that you did.

​When you develop a travel habit, you begin to get exposed to the cultures of other people. This will help build your understanding of how other people live and why they behave the way that they do. It will help you to become smarter and make you more tolerant in dealing with others. Why not travel to regions that you have questions about and witness their way of life firsthand? This could even be a life-changing experience.

The people who usually have interesting stories from across the world to add to conversations are usually the those who have a wealth of experience to their names. When you chip in stories or tales that might sound strange or unfamiliar, or when you use a foreign story to enlighten your audience on something new, you can be revered among your social circles.

​When it comes to food, you could probably be the best of cooks back at home, but you’ll meet your match when you travel. There is no feeling greater than trying out a local dish from a foreign country. Buying the local dish of another country in your own area and buying that same dish in its native country are two different things. The latter is simply, always tastes better. Enjoying such a meal is an experience in its own, so go ahead. No one’s stopping you. Try something new.

In the end, traveling is all about having an adventure. There are places unknown to many people of the world. Be the one that stands out by visiting these places. You could make a list and plan to visit as many of them as you can. The possibilities are endless, so it’s all up to you. Regardless which you choose, you’ll be having the time of your life.

​Hey, don't you think it's time to take a break from your routine that's in all probability, boring as heck, and go somewhere new and exciting? Where you can get refreshed again? You've already been dreaming about doing something like for a long time, haven’t you? The trouble is, you probably can’t make a choice on the nest place to go.

There are lots of options for you to choose form, but you can’t see and do everything. That’s impossible, but don't feel too bad about it, because you can pick the best among them and still get all the fun you seek. How do you go about doing this? We've outlined some trusted tips to help guide you in choosing where to go as you plan your first trip.

​This is where it all starts from. What are the best things you dream to see and which tourist destinations hold these things? Make a sure list of all the places you love and want to visit, from the most desired to the least desired. Forget the experience of other people, just get your own list ready based on instinct and fashion out your next trip based on it.

Finance has always proven to be a deal breaker for the things we love to do. Remember we said when it comes to traveling, your options are more limited than you would have wanted, hence the reason proper decision-making is important. Take your budget into cognizance as you make your plan. Try to know what you have to spend, then guide your trip to fit into your budget. Remember, it's not about just thinking, but thinking ‘smart’ and finding the best ways to cut costs and still derive fun from the trip.

You're going somewhere entirely new to you, and you don't expect things to be exactly the same with things back home. Before choosing a destination, make proper research about what their weather and climate is like. Trust us, you don't want to visit any country during harsh weather conditions. So research is imperative. Wait until the weather gets better, or simply change the destination.

​We've talked about budget and how sticking to it is more than a good idea, but there are some places you simply feel as if you need to see them, even doing so will take a heavy blow on your budget.
It’s your guts telling you to go there. It’s not like you have any credible reason for wanting to go, but that doesn’t change anything. We advise you to do as you please then. As long as it’s a safe, go for it then. In the end, it’s all about fulfilling your desire and living dreams.

​While planning to travel, look into smaller things like what flight to book and how to go about doing it. Your favorite airline may not have its international flight going anywhere near where you want to be. Again, we reiterate how important it is to do research. That’s the only thing that will avert such situations. And you’ll still have enough time to either change your travel destination or your airline. After all this, the only thing left to do is enjoy every experience your trip brings you.
