8. Fraser Island, Queensland, Australia
Known already for its amazing beaches, Australia is home to one of the most beautiful on this planet – Fraser Island in Queensland. This stunning World Heritage Site is an ecologist’s dream. It was 640 square miles of unspoiled natural vegetation, land and water life. Rain forests with reportedly 1000-year-old trees grow from below the sand. Its beautifully caramel-like sand is contrasted with fiery bronze cliffs surrounded by an abundance of native wildlife. Another great thing about this beach is that it is fairly untouched, its not necessarily a tourist attraction and can be quite quiet and peaceful.
