This group is for people who spend their travels searching for the mighty finest beaches of the world. Whether you do it consiously or you've only just realised by reading this that everytime you decide where to go next, in the back of your mind you are thinking about white sand/aqua waters/sandy coves/fine surf/stunning cliffs/palm trees, then this group is for you. Share pics and experiences and get inspired about all the millions of beaches we have yet to factor into our quests that others may rate the highest! Also interested to hear your criteria for a perfect beach - is it secludedness, is it finess/whiteness of sand (or yellowness/blackness/pebbliness) or rocky outcrops, or caves, or surf, or the party scene, or the sunsets, safety, rockpools - or is the very finest beach a mixture of all of those? All important questions!

sudielasudes Praia Lopez Mendez on Ilha Grande in Brazil is my all time favourite beach. It has crystal clear water that is shallow for a long way out and is the best beach I have ever been to. Take your own food and drink as there is just a guy selling ice creams at the beach and there are no shops.
Ilha Grande is an island off the shore of Angra dos Reis, about 180kms from Rio de Janeiro. You can drive to Mangaratiba or Angra from Rio de Janeiro on BR 101. When you arrive at either town, ake a ferry to the island. Once you arrive at the port town on the island, you can take a boat to Praia Lopes Mendes.
