Beaches in Santa Barbara, CA
South Carolina's Atlantic Ocean coastline is home to a myriad of barrier islands, including the beautiful Sea Islands chain, which includes over 100 islands and stretches between the Santee and St. Johns Rivers.
While there are no beaches in Boston City itself, a half-hour drive or train trip will take you to wonderful sandy stretches overlooking Boston Harbor.
The world’s beaches each spoke a different kind of softness. Some whispered—shells clicking in the tide, salt wind tangled in my hair. Others felt bold and bright, waves crashing like applause. I remember walking a shoreline in another country, the sky wide and blue, and thinking, “This is the same ocean, but it feels like a new beginning.”
What stayed with me were the quiet, universal things: footprints trailing behind me in warm sand, a coconut in hand under the shade of palms, laughter carried across the water in a language I didn’t need to understand. I wandered through quiet coves and golden bays, windswept cliffs and turquoise shallows, and each one left something with me—sun on my skin, peace in my chest, time moving just a little slower.
Whether you’re dreaming of remote islands, sunset strolls, surf towns, or soft beaches that feel like they’ve waited just for you, these guides gather the shores that stayed with me—gentle, healing, and full of light that doesn’t ask for anything but your presence.
