Summer is vacation time. And despite the fact that in winter we can freely get to hot countries under the scorching sun, all the same summer is a special and magical time. As Grishkovets said, the summer must be spent. Moreover, it is pleasant to spend, without the fuss and crowds of tourists always chewing something, yelling children who pour or pour something on your head, and drunken neighbors on the beach. Agree, a vertical solarium on a public beach somewhere in Odessa, Yalta or Sochi, if you arrived there later than 8 am, is not a very pleasant and useful activity. Vertical, because after 8 am there is not something to lie down comfortably, there is nowhere to even sit. All that remains is to stand. But it turns out that not everything is so hopeless, and there are still places in the world that are practically pristine in the literal sense of the word. Forbes magazine found 9 such places, and we will share with you.

1. Skeleton Coast (Namibia)

Most of this coast is currently a national park, the northern part of which can only be reached as part of a tourist group. Especially for such tourists there is a small hotel Skeleton Coast Camp. This coastline has luxurious deserted beaches and seal colonies. The best time to visit is from November to May.

2. Island Pločica (Croatia)

If you have a dream to rent an island for the summer, then it is quite feasible. And for a fairly small amount of money. To do this, you just need to come to Croatia and rent an apartment on the island of Pločica. There is a lighthouse for rent, which looks more like a two-storey villa. The island itself can be bypassed in half an hour. And, most importantly, no tourists except you and your guests.

3. Tai Long Wan (Hong Kong)

Despite the fact that Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated regions, there are places where you can retire. You just need to spend more time and be patient, because you will have to take a bus first, then a boat, and take a walk. This beach is located in the protected Sai Kung Country Park.

4. Polyhua (Hawaii)

This is the longest beach on the Lanai Islands. Clean sand, green turtles, whales - all this can be seen with your own eyes.

5. Jivani (Pakistan)

Makran is a narrow strip of coastline that stretches for almost a thousand kilometers and runs through Pakistan and Iran. Now the section between Karachi and Jivani can be easily reached by highway. There are few tourists there, and local residents are also not crowded. It is very beautiful and deserted here, and you can also see green and olive sea turtles.

6. Arabat arrow (Ukraine)

This beach is practically deserted for 80 km. The Arabat Spit is the longest spit in the world, separating the Sea of Azov from the Sivash. The Azov Sea is not as deep as the Black Sea, but here you can take a break from the crowds of people who are currently literally fighting for a place under the sun in Crimea.

7. Derawan Island (Indonesia)

You will have to get here longer than to the Arabat Spit, but it's worth it. Derawan Island is located 20 km from the northeastern coast of Kalimantan. You can walk around it in an hour, visit a coconut plantation and get acquainted not only with the locals, but also with sea turtles.

8. Praia do Sancho (Brazil)

Praia do Sancho is one of the most beautiful islands of the Fernando de Noronha archipelago, which has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2001. The number of visitors is strictly limited (no more than 420 people at a time) and an environmental tax is taken from each tourist depending on the length of stay.

9. Lakka (Sierra Leone)

Lakka is a small village located 20 kilometers from the capital Freetown. If you do not remember the civil war of 1991-2002, this place is worth a visit for its beauty and seclusion. Are you not intimidated by the ruins of hotels, broken roads and old cars scattered all the way from Lakka to Freetown? Then go ahead for new uncommon impressions. Despite such a deplorable state, there is one Lakka Cotton Club hotel there.
