Beautiful Hyams Beach in Australia - White Sand, Turquoise Water and Blue Skies

If you were to rate the whiteness of white sand beaches – and apparently someone does – Hyams Beach would be at the top of your list.  A popular beach holiday destination in New South Wales, Australia, Hyams Beach knows how to give its visitors a beautiful view and a wonderful time.

The sand at Hyams is a pristine expanse of alabaster wonder; some say it’s the whitest sand in the world!  Not to be outdone, the water at Hyams Beach struts it stuff too; it’s as clear as can be, ranging in tone from pale aqua to turquoise to deep blues. 

Rock formations are strewn here and there, offering climbing opportunities and tide pool exploration for all.  It’s a great spot for snorkeling, and you may even see dolphins and sharks from the shore!
