Travel: Beaches of Latin America

Publish date: 2024-08-24

Some of the world's best beaches are on the islands of Latin America. THE GOOD LIFE would have gladly spent the rest of the winter checking them out.

Brazil: Sanchos, on Fernando de Noronha, is the island's most perfect beach: languorous, sensual and golden.

Venezuela: Los Roques, an idyllic cluster of coral islands, is ideal for lazing, snorkeling and fishing for the elusive bonefish.

Nicaragua: San Juan del Sur is a laid-back beach town with rustic seafood restaurants and watering holes.

Ecuador: The Pacific coast around Machalilla National Park has tropical forests teeming with wildlife, and coral reefs at Los Frailes beach.

Honduras: A diver's mecca, the Bay Islands lie beside the world's second largest barrier reef. You'll never want to come up for air.
