What is the best beach in the world? This question is hard for someone to answer because there are 628 known beaches in the world. So, the exact answer to that question? The answer is it’s up to someone’s opinion, everyone has their own expectations of what a beach should have and shouldn’t have. Although there is no exact answer to that question, there are definitely some beaches that are on top of the list. One of those beaches is Whitehaven Beach. 

Whitehaven Beach is located on Whitsunday Island, Australia. The only way to be able to get to this beach is by going on a boat. Unfortunately, you are not able to visit this beach by yourself.

Although it’s unfortunate to only be able to visit the beach through an organized tour, the tour gives an opportunity to meet new people. Although someone must visit through a tour, people are able to camp for a night on the National campground on the beach.

Whitehaven beach was once known as Whispering Sands’‘ which was named by a local Ngaro Indigenous Tribe but was renamed Whitehaven Beach later on. The beach was named “Whitehaven” because of the noise the sand makes when you walk on it.  So, staff commander EP Bedwell, in 1879, decided that the beach should be named “Whitehaven Beach.” The sand at Whitehaven Beach is made from 98.9% pure silica and it is this silica that gives the sand its unique white color. It also gives the sand a nice fine powdery grain.

The sand will polish and make your jewelry look new and as beautiful as it can be, making the beach a wonderful place to bring your jewelry. The sand makes people’s rings look the best.
