While some people live for the mountains and others prefer to spend time in the country, there are those amongst us who enjoy spending time at the beach. It may be because the beach has sand, sun and surf or it may be because the atmosphere at the beach is more laid back than in other locations. If you fall into the category that loves spending time on the beach, we have a list of the world’s best beach bars.
