In the sea of extraordinary Asian beaches, it was so hard to choose top 10 best beaches to visit in Asia. Being a person interested in exploring and researching new things, I have made this list for people who are into adventures, crystal clear sea waters and beautiful sunsets.
Table of Contents
1) White Beach, Borakay, Philippines
The first beach on the list of best beaches to visit in Asia is 4 km White Beach, Philippines in Aklan province. The best time to visit this amazing place is from December to May and those who aren’t into noise and crowded beaches, should go there even now in October, because it’s not yet completely full of people. The White Beach is possibly the most beautiful beach in Asia with its calm, warm waters and gently sloping pure white sand. At this Asian beach kids can make their Bokaray sand-art masterpieces, while their parents enjoy massages and good bars with cheap drinks. The White Beach sunsets are out of this world.
2) Nai Harn Beach, Nai Harn Thailand
Nai Harn Beach is just sublime. You can visit it any time you want. Its beauty is as perfect in January as in December. Nai Harn is a small, quiet beach with lovely white sand combined with great waves but safe. Crystal clear blue water and great weather are ideal for a relaxing day and enjoying Thai cuisine. It’s easy to get to and I would recommend it if you are traveling with your family. There must be a huge reason why lots of couples come in their wedding-dress for shooting photos there.

Puka Shell Beach will become your second love first time you visit it. The best time to go is during winter and spring months, from December to May. The name Puka itself is so much attractive. Yapak Beach was named after Puka shell which can be easily found around the beach. Don’t leave this beach without bringing back home Puka shell souvenir.
