When thinking about a beach holiday with children, all parents imagine an ideal picture: a long strip of clean and soft sand and a turquoise transparent warm sea. Children really love to spend time on the shore, now and then running into the water, making little sandbags and building sand castles, jumping on small waves near the shore and enjoying the sun, warm water and other components of relaxation. When choosing a destination for a family vacation, parents should take into account a number of factors that are especially important when a small tourist goes on a trip.
Firstly, it is worth considering the climate of the chosen country. Here, the optimal air temperature for a child should not be lower than + 25 ... + 30 degrees Celsius, and the water temperature should be above +22 degrees. Also, the beach should ideally be sandy and have a gentle entrance to the sea. Beaches where you need to go along bridges to enter the sea, or where even an adult cannot reach the bottom near the shore, are dangerous for families with kids. In addition, it is better if the selected beach is marked with a blue flag, which means that this part of the coastline meets the highest quality standards. Finally, for a family holiday, parents are better off opting for less crowded and more peaceful resorts. Among the most popular family beaches in the world, highlight the top 10.
European beaches
According to experts, one of the most optimal beaches for families with kids is the Italian Cattolica, known as the "Queen of the Adriatic Sea." It is known that the beaches of the Adriatic have never been considered the best, they were called simply good. However, in recent years the situation has changed dramatically for the better, as cozy Cattolica demonstrates. In 2010, the Cattolica beach was even awarded an honorary blue flag. This place is famous for its cleanest sea, gently sloping entry into the water from a sandy and clean beach, as well as countless entertainment on the coast for children of all ages. In the city itself and on the beach, both kids and older children, as well as their parents, will find something to do. Sunbeds and umbrellas on this beach are paid - from 4 to 10 euros (about 190 - 470 rubles) per day, depending on the season, and you can entertain yourself in your free time from swimming by going to the pool, jacuzzi, playing table tennis or renting catamaran or boat. There are also a lot of cafes and restaurants on the beach, offering, among other things, a children's menu.
The long sandy beach of Calvi in French Corsica is also popular among lovers of European holidays. The coastline of the island is bordered by a dense pine forest, which creates a pleasant shade. The beach gradually descends to the clear azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea and from any part of the beach offers an amazing view of the bay and the nearest sights of these places. The advantage of Calvi is that even in the high tourist season there is enough space for everyone, and the warm sea, lack of current and excellent infrastructure, oriented, including for children, will create all the conditions for an unforgettable vacation.
The third most popular place is occupied by two Greek beaches at once - in Crete and the island of Naxos. Most parents traveling with children admit that the amazing beaches and conditions for a family holiday in Greece can hardly be compared with any other beaches in the world. Elafonisi is considered the most unusual beach in Crete - it is primarily known for the fact that the sand here is white with a pinkish tint. Under different lighting conditions, the sand is able to change shades to absolutely fantastic and incredible. The shallow and very warm sea in this part of the island will allow even the smallest children to sit in the water almost without getting out, and the parents to admire the different shades of the sea. According to experts on these places, the Ionian, Cretan and Libyan seas merge near Elafonisi, due to which at different times of the day you can count more than ten different shades of water here.
No less cozy and safe for families with children is the magnificent beach of St. George on the Greek island of Naxos. It is located within walking distance from the capital of the island - the city of Chora, and its soft fine sand and clear water will delight parents and their children. In total, there are about two dozen beaches on this island, each of which is charming in its own way, and almost all of them are suitable for families, thanks to a well-developed beach infrastructure. For those looking for windless beaches, it is better to pay attention to the coastline in the southwestern part of the island. Plaka Beach is considered one of the quietest and most peaceful, while Sahara and Partenos are more suitable for parents whose children are in their teens and are not averse to windsurfing - strong winds blow here, creating ideal conditions for practicing this sport.
Children's beaches in Asia
While many parents are apprehensive about traveling with young children to Asian countries, there are also beaches that have been found to be ideal for families. These included Chaweng Beach and Bophut on Koh Samui in Thailand. In general, this country of smiles is traditionally famous for a myriad of magnificent clean and literally heavenly beaches, from which it is extremely difficult to choose the very best. Bophut Beach can be safely called one of the most suitable for children's recreation, as here the coast is covered with almost perfect sand - fine, soft and surprisingly clean. In addition, a gentle entrance to the shallow and warm sea will allow children to frolic in shallow water, and parents will not worry too much about the safety of their child. However, for the most active children who love to socialize with their peers, this beach may seem a bit boring. This problem can be solved in Chaweng, where children from all over the world rest and where all kinds of entertainment are offered for children of all ages. In addition, there are a lot of cafes, restaurants, bars on Chaweng Beach, as well as regular sellers of ice cream, fruits and goods for children.
The most desperate and extreme parents who are not afraid to go with their baby to distant and exotic India can recommend one of the beaches of the island of Goa - Paola. Unlike the popular beaches of Colva, Benaulim, Anjuna or Calangute, this coast is located in a small and quiet bay, which is protected from waves and has no analogues from Kerala to Mumbai. This part of Goa boasts stunning sand, developed infrastructure and a large number of family hotels and restaurants.
To the beach in the USA
The coastline of the United States could not but be included in the number of the best children's beaches in the world. Those parents who are not afraid of a long flight with a baby and a significant time difference will be able to enjoy a truly fabulous vacation, for example, on Coronado Island in San Diego, California. This is not even a beach, but a real “water world”, where a clean sandy beach near the Coronado Hotel is the best suited for families with children. By the way, unlike most San Diego beaches, it is strictly forbidden to drink alcoholic beverages here, and the most dangerous and noisy water sports are located about 15 kilometers down the coastline. That is why this part of the coast is preferred by mothers with children.
Those lucky ones who go on vacation to sunny Miami should go to Crandon Park Beach - a huge sandy beach with a quiet and calm ocean, as well as a lot of entertainment on the shore. By the way, for many years Miami has been ranked first in the rankings of the best family resorts.
Some time ago, the Mexican beach Playa Norte on the island of Isla Mujeres gained recognition among tourists traveling with babies over long distances. In this part of the "Isle of Women", the beach is sheltered from the harsh Caribbean winds and offers a calm calm sea for children of all ages. This island is located near the popular resort of Cancun and is a great alternative to the noisy hotel complexes on the mainland. People come here both for a day and for a longer period to enjoy fine, like flour, white sand.
To make your holiday enjoyable...
Going to the beach with a child, parents should understand that on the beach you will not be able to calmly read a book, look through a magazine, surf on social networks or chat carelessly with friends. It is better to tune in in advance for an active holiday, as little fidgets are unlikely to calmly bask in the sun and quietly enjoy the sound of the waves. In addition, it is worth remembering some safety rules when relaxing in the sun with a baby.
The most important thing is to protect the child from the burning rays of the sun. To do this, before going outside, it is worth applying sunscreen with a high level of protection to the face, shoulders, hands of the baby. It is necessary to let the product soak in and only then put on clothes. It is better to renew the cream every hour. Also, be sure to take a cap or scarf with you, which will protect the child's head from the sun. Light sandals or special "coral" slippers will save your feet from scratches, especially on a pebble beach.
Some mothers choose special wetsuits for their children that reliably protect the delicate skin of the child from ultraviolet radiation. This suit is comfortable even when wet as it dries very quickly thanks to the spandex and polyamide included. By the way, experienced travelers recommend choosing a bright costume for the child so that the baby stands out in the crowd and is always in the field of view of the parents. In any case, even dressing up a child in such a wonderful costume, you should avoid sun exposure from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm. The most favorable time for the baby will be the early morning hours and the time before sunset.
When choosing a place on the beach, it is better for parents with children to take places closer to the water so that the natural air conditioner provides fresher and cooler air. At the very edge of the water, the air temperature is usually 3 - 5 degrees lower than in the center of the beach, which makes it easier to stay in the sun.
Surely, sellers of ice cream and sweet carbonated drinks, which children of all ages love so much, will constantly walk along the beach. However, it is better not to go along with the child, because when absorbed by the body, such drinks with a high content of carbohydrates increase body temperature, which can cause overheating and dehydration. It is better to give the baby water to drink with clean drinking water or unsweetened compote, and also for a light snack, take fruits and vegetables cut into portioned slices.
Where to go to the sea with children in the summer, the best places for families with children from personal experience, the beaches of Europe are the most suitable for traveling with children. The combination of comfort, affordability, price, budget, quality. Chose the best places in terms of price - quality - convenience for children.
Children are not a reason to sit at home on the couch, giving up sunbathing, Mediterranean cuisine and romantic family walks along the sea? In no case. In this review, we will forget about the traditional Turkey and Egypt, let's skip the pretentious Maldives and Seychelles, and we do not consider options such as Crimea or the Black Sea region due to a clear discrepancy between price and quality.
"... I will focus only on options for a beach holiday with children that I personally and my children have tested - no Internet speculation and other people's photos. All these places are united by three things - a small resort village, a clean beach and budget accommodation for a family.
Type of journey- "car" or "aircraft plus car" from this and proceed.
The car is more budgetary and more interesting, the plane is faster and more comfortable, choose for yourself.

Bophut and Chaweng, Koh Samui, Thailand
Thailand boasts just a myriad of beautiful beaches, so it is absolutely impossible to choose the best here. But we'll try. Bophut Beach, which is 19 miles north of Chaweng, may well deserve this title, thanks to its perfect sand and gentle entry into the water. But still, it's probably too quiet for the kids. But Chaweng, offering its vacationers delicious eateries, entertainment of all kinds and a lot of kids from all over the world to play together, deserves the status of "the best beach for families with children."

Many sandy beaches are located in Anapa and not far from it. Dzhemete Beach, which runs along Pioneer Avenue, is strewn with fine, pleasant sand and has a smooth entrance to the sea, so it’s good for older people or families to relax there.
The only negative is that there are a lot of people at the peak of the season, and the sea in the coastal zone at the end of summer often looks untidy due to the large number.

The bulk of Turkey's sandy beaches are located on the two most popular coasts: the Mediterranean and the Aegean.

Olympus Cirali beach
Olympos is a resort on the Mediterranean coast. It is located 100 km from Alanya Airport and 50 km from Kemer.
Olympos is located near Mount Tahtali, on the territory of the national park.
Near Olympos there is another village - Cirali. Both places are not too familiar to Russian tourists who are used to vacationing in Turkey on a package tour. If you are going to relax in Turkey on your own or rent a car, we recommend you go to Olympos, because now it is a paradise with untouched nature, magnificent landscapes and an excellent beach.
Olympos beach is partly sandy, partly pebbly. This is one of the few places in Turkey where you can meet turtles and see how they lay their eggs.
They sometimes take one-day excursions here, there are no water activities on the beaches and there are no cafes nearby either.
Olympos is loved by healthy lifestyle people - fans of yoga, meditation, hippies.
It is worth knowing that Olympus can be accessed from two sides. The city of Olympos is located along the Ulupinar River, which flows into the sea and can be reached both from the beach and from the mountains. If you drive from Kemer, a left turn will lead to Olympos Cirali beach, and the second turn a little further - to Olympos Cavuskey. It is the first option that is needed, since it leads to the beaches, and the second option only to the ancient ruins.
Cirali Olympos beach is also called the Turkish Seychelles for its cleanliness, beauty and privacy.
Cirali Olympos beach is located in the village of Cirali on the Antalya coast. The sandy beach of Cirali is not very popular with package tourists and they mainly come here on their own to relax on a clean beach with clear warm water.

Another protected beach in Turkey with turtles. Usually people come here on purpose, on their own or with an excursion from Fethiye or Marmaris.
The purest sandy beaches of Iztuzu in the old days served as a port area, where there was a customs office and a fish market.
Iztuzu Beach is where the rare species of Carette turtles come to lay their eggs and reproduce.
From spring to autumn, they build nests here at night, so from April to October, Iztuzu beach is closed for recreation from 8 pm until the morning, so as not to interfere with the breeding of turtles.
The sandy beach of Iztuzu is bright golden in color, shallow, and the water in the sea is clear as glass. Iztuzu is loved by vacationers with children, who like shallow water and a clean seabed.
