Imagine this. It's New Year's eve. A slow breeze brushes past your shoulders. An orange sky folds itself gently into the horizon. The last sundown of the year warms the sea for a final time. The sound
of waves settle into your ears like a familiar memory, and the sand beneath your feet begin to cool. If there is a perfect way to let one year slip into the next, it is on a foreign shore where time feels softer, colours appear brighter and the world leaves you blissfully unbothered.
For those planning a year-end escape, these beaches offer more than sunsets and cocktails. They come with culture, flavours, stories and a sort of magic that stays long after the holiday is over.
