1. Nosy Iranja

    Two small islands off the coast of Madagascar, connected by a sandbar that vanishes completely when the tide comes in, which is either deeply romantic or a mild logistical crisis depending on when you lose track of time. The water is the kind of clear turquoise that makes you feel like you're hallucinating, sea turtles nest on the beach like they own the place, and according to the World's 50 Best Beaches, they're basically right.
