A holiday at the beach is all about sun, sand and relaxation. With a bit of travel planning and advice, a vacation at the beachside can be the ultimate travel experience for any type of traveller. For Muslim travellers, we have compiled a list of a few must-visit beaches from around the world.   Turkey is arguably the best destination for Muslim travellers seeking beautiful beaches and sublime relaxation. Being one of the best destinations in the world for Muslim travellers, Turkey offers some of the most beautiful beaches in Asia such as the Oludeniz (Blue) Lagoon located on the Turquoise coast towards the southwest of Turkey and the Iztuzu Beach located on the southwest coast. Be it sighting loggerhead turtles at Çiralı or visiting the secluded coves down the coast; Turkey will delight all beach lovers. Indonesia offers over 17,000 tropical islands that are scattered across two different oceans and is home to an abundance of beautiful beaches that are ideal for a relaxing holiday. Pulau Derawan Beach, Canggu Beach in Bali and the Nihiwatu Beach in Sumba are some of the best beaches in Indonesia, with facilities for Muslim travellers readily available in close proximity to the beaches.

Some of its best beaches include Phra Nang Beach in Railay, Sunrise Beach in Koh Lipe and Maya Bay in Ko Phi Phi.

Halal food and prayer facilities will be readily available at most beach destinations in Thailand. The best destination in the world for Muslim travellers – Malaysia – is also home to a fair share of delightful beaches such as the Tanjung Rhu in Langkawi, Juara Beach at Tioman Island and Pulau Pangkor.
