Title: Beautiful Book!
Review: : This is truly a stunning book. The pages take you around the world by continent with engaging text, incredible pictures, and great adventure. I find myself picking up the book and being transported to beaches all over the world. I was thrilled to see my favorite Grayton Beach State Park featured. It was fun to see an old favorite and learn about so many new beaches. I highly recommend Best Beaches.I was given a copy by the publisher and not required to write a positive review.

Title: a beautiful book!
Review: I’ve been to some amazing beaches, and I don’t know which is my favorite! Haiti has some beaches that are beautiful but mostly dear to my heart because of the memories.I love this beautiful book! I’ve been to many of these beaches, one is located very close to us, RubyBeach close to Forks, WA. But now I have a bucket list of some amazing places I need to see!Inside Lonely Planet’s Best Beaches:

Review: Gostaria de visitar as praias do livro, mas não creio que o consiga fazer, quer pelo preço que pelas distâncias a percorrer em viagens para as poder visitar.Pelo que fica a ideia, que este livro, com fotografias fantásticas e sugestões não menos interessantes, me possa proporcionar para planear aquelas viagens de sonho que fazemos uma vez na vida.Até lá, com este livro posso apreciar a beleza destes locais, mesmo sem nunca os ter visitado.

Review: Another high quality, Lonely Planet Travel Guide. At this point, I am not really surprised. But this book is a fantastic resource for someone looking for inspiration for new holidays. It comes with lots of high quality photographs and the information supplied is really useful too.Definitely something that you'd want on your coffee table to lift your spirits on a grey and boring day!

Review: Adore this!Have purchased this as a gift and likely will re-purchase for the same purpose.Photographs dominate (which I like) but there's really useful insight into the location of each beach, how to get there and why you should go.Also love that there's some really unexpected places in here too (Iceland, Antarctica, Norway). It says "incredible beaches" on the cover and it lives up to that promise.

Review: Another fantastic book from Lonely Planet, with gorgeous pictures from all around the world, exquisitely set out and printed in this hardback book. The book isn't overly large, so easy to hold and read, good strong binding, and will fit on a standard bookshelf if you don't have a coffee table.Gives you real insights into less well known beaches, great ideas for holiday destinations, and the chance to emulate the pictures you are looking at.
