Beach Dropping 25

from Luxe Beat Featured Articles Hosted by Luxe Beat

Praia da Falésia in the Algarve, Portugal was voted as the best beach in the world at the Travellers’ Choice Awards 2024. Sicily’s Spiaggia dei Conigli and Spain’s La Concha Beach came second and third. Beach dropping is a popular pastime. It has been calculated that every five seconds, someone somewhere is either talking about their favourite beach or just about to. Beach-upmanship has become an art form. It is played by millions of travellers around the world. The object is to force your opponent into admitting that he or she hasn’t been lucky enough to have visited as many diverse and exotic beaches as you have. The winner is the player who manages to make his opponent concede that he or she, despite their travels, is a dreadful bore and a very sad individual who has lived no sort of life at all. In short, gone to all the wrong beaches. To read the full article by Kevin Pilley visit Luxe Beat Magazine.
