2Spiaggia di Sansone, Elba Island (Italy)

Elba often flies under the radar, but Spiaggia di Sansone looks so unreal it could pass as a digital render. The beach is made of smooth white pebbles that make the water glow in impossible shades of ice-blue and turquoise.

Because of the clarity, boats anchored offshore appear to float in mid-air, creating a visual illusion that feels too perfect to be natural. Steep cliffs frame the cove and shield it from wind, giving the entire spot a calm, untouched, picture-perfect atmosphere.
