Hayling Island, England
When To Go: June – Aug
A stone’s throw from the mainland, little Hayling Island off the English south coast is like stepping back in time. A haven of British seaside charm, the beach at Bound Lane is the quietest on the island and our choice for a low-key beach hop. Backed by colorful beach huts, grab yourself an ice-cream and take a stroll along the pretty shingle beach. When the weather inevitably changes (trust us it will) swap the cornetto for a cuppa.

Never crowded, and many have great white sand and no surf, so they're fine for swimming. Two of our true favorites are Coyote Cove, where you can camp on the sand, and El Requeson, with its sand beach connecting to an offshore island. It gives you two beaches, one on each side of the connection, both being good for snorkeling or just lolling in the warm clear water, watching the fish swim by. It's very safe for families with small children, too. There's a nice small hotel at a cove between these two spots, with a good friendly restaurant next door. (Oops, I ought to keep that a secret so it doesn't get too popular!!)
