World's best beach?

Maybe it's best that this shot was captured from afar and on high: The extremely fine, smooth sand of this Queensland beach is notorious for sifting its way inside cameras, phones, and other expensive electronics. As long as you keep your valuables stowed, though, a stroll on Whitehaven Beach is an experience you can brag about. Thanks to the snowy sands, sapphire waters, and scenic setting in the spectacular Whitsunday Islands, travel publications regularly name Whitehaven the world's best beach.
