Three of India’s beaches have featured in the list of top 10 beaches in Asia. Agonda beach (Goa) has been ranked at No. 4 position
in the Asia top 10 list, mostly for being wide, quiet, picturesque and a great spot for sunbathing and relaxing with relatively few tourists around, the survey said. Goa’s Palolem beach has been ranked eighth in the list for its beach hut accommodations. Stretching between two magnificent head lands, Palolem beach is lined with towering coconut palms and is largely unspoiled. It is inhabited by local fishermen and foreign tourists alike.

Radhanagar Beach on the Havelock Island in the Andamans has been placed at No. 10 in the list for its stretch of white sand with picture perfect waters lined with palm trees, it said. Ngapali beach in Myanmar has topped the list, followed by Nacpan Beach in Philippines and Kata Noi beach in Thailand, it said.

Yapak beach in Philippines stood at No. 5, followed by Nai Harn beach in Thailand at No. 6 and Sunrise beach in Thailand at the seventh spot, while Otres beach in Cambodia was ranked number nine, it said. However, none of the beaches from India feature in the category of the world’s best beaches.

Grace Bay beach in the Caribbean has topped as the world’s number one traveller’s choice beach, followed by Baia do Sancho beach in Brazil and Playa Paraiso beach in Cuba, the survey said.
