Cas Abao Beach

The water here is the color of blue Curaçao, the liqueur, and the resemblance stops nowhere near there. A sheltered bay on the southwestern coast, Cas Abao sits between low cliffs that cut the wind and keep the surface calm enough to see straight to the bottom. Swimming, snorkeling, and diving all work well. Amenities are solid without tipping into resort-circus territory. It lands on the World's 50 Best Beaches list, and it's not hard to see why.
