Latin America's Best Beaches

Beach Holiday

Latin America Beach Holiday are not often the first thing travellers consider when travelling to this part of the world. The region is famous for the Galapagos Islands, the Amazon Jungle, treks through the Andes and Patagonia, and famous UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Machu Picchu in Peru, or Christ the Redeemer in Brazil. Culture, music, culinary delights, cobblestone streets in colonial towns and iconic national parks are some of the experiences that first come to mind.

However, the stunning coastlines, remote beaches, white sand, turquoise waters and unique marine wildlife are often overlooked when considering destinations for travels through Latin America.

Mexico, Belize, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia and Brazil all have fantastic beaches that can be enjoyed on their own or combined with the cultural, historical and wildlife experiences they are more commonly known for.

Beach Experiences

White Sand Beaches

Many of Latin America’s best white sand beaches can be found along coastlines bordering the Caribbean Sea.

Starting in the north, some of the most stunning options include Tulum on the eastern coast of Mexico, Varadero just a few hours from the capital of Cuba, the San Blas Islands off the eastern coast of Panama and the San Andres Islands off the northern coast of Colombia.

If your main objective is to relax on a beautiful white sand beach, consider adding one of these destinations.

Adventure Beaches

Travellers who want the combination of a relaxing beach experience and adventure have some great options to choose from across Latin America.

Belize is ideal fore divers and those looking for ocean based adventure while also taking full advantage of pristine white sand. Here you have the chance to explore the world’s second largest reef system.

In Costa Rica, kayak the estuaries near Tamarindo beach for up close wildlife and animal viewing, and in Panama explore mangroves in Bocas del Toro.

Remote Beaches

Across Latin America there are a range of remote beaches ready to be discovered. Travellers may need to spend a bit longer to arrive at these locations, but the payoff is unspoiled beauty, fewer fellow beach goers, and bragging rights as the first among your friends to have visited these destinations.

The Atlantic Ocean and coast can be explore from Porto de Galinhas in Northern Brazil. Nuqui on the Pacific Coast of Colombia offers nature and off the beaten path adventure.

Off the western coast of Panama, Coiba, once a former penal colony but now a UNESCO listed natural reserve, is ideal for divers.
