Set out on one of our 10 favorite beach trips and encounter the perfect spots to warm up. The beaches come in all colors – white, pink, gold, and black – and are either beloved for their superb natural setting, smashing eye candy, or unbeatable beachside activities. This winter, pick between beach trips to powdery Caribbean shores, heavenly Hawaiian islands, cosmopolitan Australia, spectacular Brazil, or undeveloped Mexico. And, when you're ready to plan your beach trip for summer, we've got you covered there too, with glamorous Mediterranean swaths in Greece and the South of France, and even a remote archipelago off the coast of Africa.
