Beach

Waking up to the sound of the sea is one of life’s simple pleasures. Whatever type of sand you want to feel between your toes, Steppes has a team of committed beach-bums who know where to find the best beaches in the world.

Three or four nights on a beach can be the perfect end to a busy holiday, giving you time to reflect on all you have seen and done while you recharge your batteries before heading home. But not all beaches are the same. And beaches aren’t just places to sit, read and soak up the sun.

For some, beaches are playgrounds – great for walking, running, swimming, snorkelling, kite-flying, fishing and surfing. So whether you want to just simply sit, read and relax or whether you’re looking to be more active, talk to our team of dedicated, beach-finders to find a piece of sand and sea that works for you.

Australia Beach Holidays

While sometimes, there is nothing more enjoyable than sitting on a beach and reading a good book, many beaches offer more than just sedentary pastimes. To stay at White Pearl Resorts or head to Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia where the deserted, soft, white sandy beaches have a thriving reef, just metres offshore. Snorkel with turtles and rays or travel beyond the reef to swim with whale sharks or humpbacks.

Africa

When thinking of beach holidays in Africa, images of cloudless skies, endless white sand beaches and stunning crystal clear waters are conjured up. Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique, pair perfectly with a beach extension after a safari holiday. For those short on time after a safari, you’ll be surprised by how good the snorkelling opportunities can be on Lake Malawi’s beaches.

It is easy to forget some of the most beautiful beaches and coastlines in the world are located on our doorstep. Great long stretches of golden sand, secret coves, the calm blue-green waters of the Mediterranean. Driftwood walkways through the sand-dunes, pretty seaside villages and harbours clinking with sailing boats and wine glasses. From Croatia’s historic cities and sleepy Mediterranean villages to Turkey’s historic Lycian Coast, unquestionably one of the world’s finest cruising grounds and perfect to explore by privately chartered yacht for family groups and friends.
