Is it a tiny rocky cove you stumbled upon off the coast of Cornwall? Or a secret sandy paradise in Indonesia, only accessible after a day’s hike? Whatever it is, you can tell us by filling out this form.
Most importantly, we want to know why it’s your favourite. Perhaps you love it because it’s home to a tiny shack with a friendly face serving you cold beers all day?

Or maybe you love it because it was a comfortable place to swim naked without inhibition. It could be the setting of your most beautiful sunset or maybe you love it because the conditions are just right for building epic sandcastles. The possibilities are endless...
Your best tips will be published online and our favourites will win a copy of 50 Beaches to Blow Your Mind. We will publish our readers' guide to the best beaches later this month.
