BeachAtlas, a UK-based start up that specializes in world beaches, has recently released its Golden Beach Award 2024. Based on diverse criteria such as the value to the local community, DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion), lifestyle offerings, and cultural significance, the ranking - at least according to BeachAtlas - shines a light on those beach gems that typically don't make it onto traditional, unidimensional 'best beach' lists.
Two beaches in Southern Africa, one in South Africa and one Namibia, made it to the Top 10 in BeachAtlas' ranking. Boulders Beach in Cape Town, South Africa, has been ranked second out of 100 beaches by BeachAtlas’ Golden Beach Awards 2024, while Namibia's Skeleton Coast was ranked at number nine. Two other beaches in South Africa made it to the Top 100 - Cape Town's Bloubergstrand was named 33rd best beach and the Clifton Beaches were ranked 68th. Overall winner of the Golden Beach Award 2024 is Bora Bora in French Polynesia.
