I live in the Philippines, a country surrounded by sea and circled by wide stretch of beaches. Some of the beaches here are even world-famous. Boracay Island was hailed as one of the best beach in the world. It has fine white sand and pristine clear waters. The sunset is also breath-taking. It has many hotels and restaurants which suits any palate and cuisine you may want. For you what is the best beach in the world???

I'm from the west coast of America, and love the Oregon coast. The only problem is it is often cold and the water is always cold. But it is beautiful. But the Philippines sound amazing! The way you describe the beaches makes me want to visit it even more now! I've never been to a beach with white sand.

I would love to go to the Philippines and do some island hopping and snorkeling. I adore white sandy beaches with gently waving palm trees and an aquamarine ocean that has a colorful reef.
My favorite country that I have been to so far is Samoa. It has gorgeous palm fringed white sandy beaches and a crystal clear ocean. It has traditional open thatched roof beach huts. At night I felt a soft ocean breeze and heard the waves gently crashing against the shore.
I saw some amazing beaches in the Seychelles. Many people say it has some of the top 10 most beautiful beaches in the world. They are made of fine white sand, tall coconut palms and a blue ocean. They have unusual rock formations on them. They are the most stunning looking beaches that I have seen so far.
Other countries that I have seen have lovely beaches are French Polynesia, the Cook Islands, Fiji, Australia and the Maldives.

The Philippines has the longest stretch of beaches due to its archipelagic structure..therefore world class and hidden beaches can be found all over the place...Boracay is one of the most famous beaches in the world,but I guess it's a little bit crowded especially during summer...Palawan on the other hand is less populated compared to that of Boracay, plus the fact that they are of the same quality ...Beaches in Bali, Indonesia...Phuket, Thailand, and Maldives are also breathtaking...We'll try to pay them a visit someday^^

This sounds beautiful. We have many nice beaches in Australia as well, but the ones near me are either cold in winter or just right in summer but we have jellyfish then (stingers) so we can't swim in the ocean then. I like waling along one of our local beaches because I can just walk along the sand for miles in my barefeet and there aren't that many people on the way (except in a few parts)
I like the gold coast sometimes as you can body surf in the waves.
Some of the beaches in our whitsundays also look beautiful and Pristine - some are in national parks.
I like the sound of your beaches, they sound beautiful and inviting for swimming, can you snorkel there as well?

Yup, you can also do some snorkeling. There are also some other aqua sports that you can do in Boracay. Besides Boracay, there are also some peaceful beaches where you can definitely relax. There are also a couple of beaches here in the Philippines where you can do some surfing. We also have some great diving spots. The Tubbataha Reef has the most number and diversed collection of fish and coral species. The Apo Reef is the second largest coral reef in the world, next to the Great Barrier Reef.
