The Portuguese island of Madeira is in the Atlantic Ocean, situated about 1,000 kilometers (621 miles) away from mainland Portugal.
葡萄牙馬德拉島位於大西洋,距離葡萄牙本土約1,000公里(621英里)。

這片沙灘上看似平靜,但在水下卻潛藏許多適合潛水的地點。由於克里斯托弗•哥倫布曾居住在桑塔島上,這裡的主要城鎮維拉巴萊拉為此在他的故居上專為這位義大利探險家設立一座博物館。

Chia, Sardinia, Italy
義大利薩丁尼亞的芡歐
Sardinia's six-month warm season is one of the many reasons why it remains such a popular beach holiday destination. The island enjoys sunny weather from May to October, and while things start to cool off in the fall, temperatures can still reach up to 63 F (17 C) this time of year.
薩丁尼亞擁有長達六個月的暖季,這也是它能成為著名的海灘度假勝地的眾多原因之一。該島在每年5月至10月間享有陽光明媚的天氣,而即便秋季開始降溫時,島上的氣溫仍可達63°F(17°C)。
Although there are countless beautiful beaches in the area, some of the standouts are located in the coastal village of Chia, positioned on the southwest coast.

這裡主要的海灘是拜亞芡歐,擁有白色的沙灘、金色的沙丘以及非常適合浮潛和潛水的碧藍海域。
However, its top selling point is that it's positioned in front of a lagoon that serves as a flamingo breeding ground, meaning you can spot flamingos (and sometimes dolphins) in the distance as you soak up the sun.
但它最大的賣點是它位於一個作為火烈鳥繁殖地的潟湖前面,也就是說,在這裡你可以一邊沐浴著陽光,一邊在遠處觀賞火烈鳥(有時候是海豚)。

Butterfly Valley, Turkey
土耳其的蝴蝶谷
Due to its designation as a protected area, visitors heading to Butterfly Valley in Turkey's Fethiye have to take a boat trip or walk down a ridiculously steep cliff to get there, but the undeveloped beach is more than worth the effort.
由於這裡是保護區,前往土耳其費特希耶蝴蝶谷的遊客必須藉由乘船或是沿著一個極其陡峭的懸崖步行到達該地,但這個未經開發過的海灘卻也令人值得耗費一切到達。

Bordering the Mediterranean Sea and Sahara Desert, the North African country is synonymous with golden beaches and sparkling waters. Its top beach town Hammamet is nicknamed "Tunisia's Saint-Tropez," thanks in part to its nightlife and incredible coastline.
