This secret paradise was created when
the Mexican government in the early 1900’s made a bombsite out of the area,

the mind blowing Maho Beach, here you can literally jump up and touch a plane
as it lands meters away from you at Princess Juliana International Airport.
8. Chandipur Beach, India
Every morning, the sea at Chandipur
Beach disappears, receding up to 5 kilometers from the shore. This gives
visitors the opportunity to walk in the sea, exploring the sea bed on foot. But
you need to keep an eye out for the high tide to come back in as the sea rushes
back into place. This phenomenon happens twice a day throughout the year!
9. Pig Beach, Big Major Cay, Bahamas
Big Major Car is populated by feral
pigs that seem to enjoy lounging around and swimming into he clear waters of
the Bahamas.
10. Glass Beach, Fort Bragg, California
This beach is indeed covered in sea glass particles. Coming from years of discarded glass washed up on the shore. Similar beaches can also be found in Hawaii.
