Cala Mariolu in Italy was named number 2 on the World's 50 Best Beaches list in 2024
This year, three Australian beaches made the cut – two from WA, one from Queensland and one from Greece.
ONE OF GREECE'S BEST-KEPT SECRETS
This spectacular, secluded beach on the island of Antipaxos is primarily accessible by boat, keeping it quiet and pristine compared to more accessible Greek beaches. Voutoumi Beach is renowned for its deep blue waters and beautiful blend of pebbles and fine white sand, nestled at the bottom of a steep, green hill. Cypress trees reach the shore, creating an amazing Mediterranean island vibe. The surrounding hills offer scenic trails and viewpoints. The water here is shallow and warm, ideal for swimming and floating for hours under the sun. With its natural beauty and serene environment, Voutoumi is a clear favourite for a peaceful escape in the Ionian Sea.
