Award: Lucky Bay Esperance is the most beautiful beach in the world

Advertising

Snow-white, almost always deserted sandy beaches stretch for five kilometers next to the turquoise waters of the Southern Ocean on the south coast of Western Australia. The website "The World's 50 Best Beaches" has now named the pristine dream beach in Lucky Bay near Esperance (Kepa Kurl) the most beautiful beach in the world, even ahead of the world-famous Anse Source d'Argent in the Seychelles. It's no wonder that the kangaroos also like to lie in the sun here.

What "The World's 50 Best Beaches" has now officially confirmed has been known to the locals for a long time. The relatively unknown beach of Lucky Bay in Cape Le Grand National Park (Mandoowernup**) in the "Australia's Golden Outback" region is a true jewel among dream beaches. And also the whitest sandy beach in Australia, as has been scientifically proven. The sand, which consists of 98,9 percent pure quartz, is particularly pure and so fine that walking barefoot feels like walking on powder. Beach fans also get their money's worth here, as do the kangaroos, who regularly come by to sunbathe. If you don't just want to lie lazily side by side in the sun with the not very shy marsupials, you can go snorkeling, surfing and fishing. To enjoy the beach in all its glory and for more than just a few hours, we recommend spending the night at the Lucky Bay Campground.

Visitors can also see bubblegum-pink Lake Hillier on Middle Island from the air on a scenic flight from Esperance. Cape Le Grand National Park also offers ample opportunities for bush walks or shore-based spotting of dolphins surfing the waves of the Southern Ocean. Between July and October, humpback, southern right and blue whales also cruise off the coast of Esperance and Cape Le Grand National Park.

Two other Western Australian coves also made the top 28, Little Hellfire Bay (17th), also in Esperance, and Turquoise Bay in Exmouth on Ningaloo Reef (50th). They were chosen for their grandiose shades of blue and deserted, tranquil surroundings. Only one other beach Down Under outside of Western Australia made the list: Whitehaven Beach in Queensland.

Jaimen Hudson of Esperance Island Cruises, who has photographed spectacular natural landscapes all over the world, confirms that the beaches around Esperance are unrivalled anywhere in the world: "The beaches of Esperance are simply incredible, unique in the world. We organize tours here every day and our guests are always quick to say that there is something magical about this place where we call home. With the turquoise water and the white sand, we really do live in a coastal paradise."
