Summer vacation is impossible to imagine without a walk along the sea coast. Someone loves warm sand, someone - small pebbles, and someone - boulders cut by sea waves. However, there are four beaches in the world that are amazing. Under the feet of the vacationers there are shells of extraordinary beauty, each of which keeps in itself the memory of the sea.
In the west of Australia, there is an amazing white beach covered with seashells. It stretches along the coast for 120 km and attracts the attention of tourists with its beauty. Another piece of paradise is Sanibel Island in Florida (USA). Locals sell shells in the form of souvenirs, here you can visit the Shell Museum, where the most amazing exhibits are presented, as well as visit the fair in early March, where, of course, they sell nothing more than shells!
Two more amazing beaches are St Barts Shell Beach and Jeffreys Bay in South Africa. People come here not only to admire the beauty of the beach, but also to taste the excellent seafood, which is abundant here. In addition, tourists flock to Jeffreys Bay for the annual September festival, which features the best seashells found along the coast, and the world-renowned Billabong Pro ASP World Tour is held in July.
