Little ones happily spend hours on the beach, building sandcastles, diving happily, effortlessly jumping over the changing waves, and enjoying freedom, sun, and ice cream. Now it’s time to reveal the secret of the five best beaches that can provide immense pleasure, fun, and unforgettable memories.

Cattolica, Emilia-Romagna, Italy
The beaches of Italy’s Adriatic coast have never been top-rated; they’ve always been simply good. But recently, this is beginning to change, as exemplified by cozy Cattolica, now considered one of the ideal places for a family vacation, where you can enjoy clear sea, a gentle slope, and countless children’s activities both on the coast and within the city.

Elafonisi, Crete, Greece
The scenery of this beach could easily be dreamed up—calm waters, magnificent sand, and a small island off to the side, so fun to explore during the sultry afternoon hours.

Coronado Island, San Diego, California
A whole “water world” awaits you on the perfect sandy shoreline near the Coronado Hotel in San Diego, making it the perfect place to relax with children. Unlike other beaches in San Diego, alcohol is prohibited here, and noisy and dangerous water sports like jet skiing are located 15 miles downshore.

Bophut and Chaweng, Koh Samui, Thailand
Bophut Beach, located 19 kilometers north of Chaweng, deserves special attention for its perfect sand and gently sloping waters, but it may be too quiet for children. Meanwhile, Chaweng, with its diverse restaurants and entertainment options for every taste, certainly deserves the title of “best beach for families with children.”

Calvi, Corsica, France
Calvi’s long sandy beach, gently sloping down to stunning azure waters, excellent infrastructure, and numerous charming towns for afternoon excursions make it an ideal destination for families with children.
