It\u2019s the height of summer right now, leaving you plenty of time to still soak up the sun.\u00a0 Warm water, tan skin, and careless days await you in the Mediterranean.\u00a0 Europe is full of white sand beaches, tourists, locals, and the occasional dolphin popping up to say hi.\u00a0 If you are daydreaming about visiting a nearby European country for a summer vacation, make sure to check out this list before you book your trip. Here\u2019s a few places to enjoy the sand and sun.<\/p>\n

The Algarve<\/h4>\n

Portugal is a popular destination in general, but during the summer the population spikes, especially in certain areas. This country has two incredible beach destinations to sink your toes in to; Faro and Lagos.\u00a0 Located in the south of Portugal with over 150 beaches to choose from in the area, you will have no problem finding one that fits your needs. The beautiful clear water, the sandstone cliffs, and the clean beach keep these locations on the top of the \u2018perfect beach\u2019 list.<\/p>\n

Mykonos<\/h4>\n

What can I say? It\u2019s a Greek island, of course they\u2019re are going to have perfect beaches.\u00a0 There are over 25 white sand beaches on Mykonos, all serving up the same amount of pleasure.\u00a0 Turquoise colors, warm water, and endless hours of sunshine.\u00a0 Mykonos is one of the most popular islands on the holiday circuit for all types of travelers.\u00a0 You can find long stretches of beach that are fully catered with umbrellas, chairs and waiters to bring you those fun, fruity cocktails to<\/p>\n

Ibiza<\/h4>\n

Ibiza is the ultimate party destination.\u00a0 If you\u2019re looking to meet thousands of scantily clad party goers and dance the days away on the beach, this is your spot.\u00a0 Although Ibiza is known for it\u2019s club scene, it\u2019s also an incredibly beautiful island.\u00a0 Rent a car and drive the island yourself to get the full effect of how stunning it is. But don\u2019t spend too much in the car! The beaches on Ibiza live up to the hype.\u00a0 You might just have to share it with thousands of others during the summer.\u00a0 Located off the shores of Spain, Ibiza is an experience you shouldn\u2019t miss.\u00a0 The tranquil and hypnotizing water is calling your name.<\/p>\n

Hvar<\/h4>\n

This Croatian island is only a couple hour ferry ride from the bustling city of Split.\u00a0 It\u2019s also a popular day trip where you will see a nice blend of tourists and locals out at the beaches.\u00a0 The beaches here are a little less about the white sand and more about the pebbles. But that doesn\u2019t stop anyone from treading lightly to get to the bright blue water.\u00a0 Don\u2019t worry, there are sandy beaches on the north part of the island where the wind is most prevalent.\u00a0 The tiny pebble beaches are also less polluted, making them the locals first choice in sunbathing and swimming.<\/p>\n

Amalfi Coast<\/h4>\n

Italy has everything you\u2019ve ever wanted in a holiday destination.\u00a0 Art, culture, history, food, wine, and beaches.\u00a0 Millions flock to the country shaped like a boot to experience it all.\u00a0 The Amalfi Coast is one of those places on earth that look fake.\u00a0 Small towns nestled on the coast, water that looks like it\u2019s been painted, and beautiful views around every corner.\u00a0 There\u2019s really nothing like it. It even is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.\u00a0 The best thing about the array of beaches available, is that they suit any style of holiday.\u00a0 If you\u2019re wanting a full-service beach, you got it.\u00a0 A beach you want to hike to? Check. The only thing they all have in common is the view.\u00a0 The Mediterranean is one of the most beautiful bodies of water in the world, and when the sun dances off the surface in every direction you look, you know you\u2019ve found paradise.<\/p>\n
