The number one beach to add to your bucket and spade list is Praia da Falesia in Portugal's Algarve, according to the travel site, which awarded it first place in its 2024 Travellers' Choice Best of the Best Awards for Beaches.

Italy's Spiaggia dei Conigli on Lampedusa island in Sicily wins the silver medal, the bronze goes to La Concha Beach in San Sebastian, Spain and Kaanapali Beach in Hawaii is the top-ranking beach in the U.S, landing fourth in the 25-strong global charts.

Tripadvisor describes it as a 'stunning three-mile stretch of sand... regarded as one of North America's best beaches' with 'crystal-clear waters perfect for snorkelling and surfing, against a backdrop of lush mountains'.

Another UK beach to make the European ranking is Bournemouth Beach (20th), described by visitors as 'a wonderful sandy beach' with 'lovely golden sands and great walks along the seafront'.
This year's awards sees the launch of a new sub-category - World's Best Sustainable Beaches - and the UK comes out top with Sandbanks Beach in Poole, Dorset named No.1 and Saundersfoot Beach in Pembrokeshire, Wales, coming in at No.3, following Radhanagar Beach on India's Havelock Island at No.2.

Bali's Kelingking Beach in Indonesia features in 21st position in the world ranking
It comes after Tripadvisor noted that more than half (55 per cent) of its global users say that helping the environment is important to them.
'Measured by a combination of inputs from sustainable data partner BeCause (via the Blue Flag program) and Tripadvisor traveller reviews, winners stand out for their commitments to sustainability including sustainable transport options, waste disposal and water quality,' the site said.
'Europe comes out top in this list, taking seven of the top ten spots, with India, South Africa and the UAE also making the list.'
Siesta Beach in Florida ranks as the ninth best beach in the world and the second best in the U.S
Poipu Beach Park, Hawaii, is the 14th best beach in the world and the third best in the U.S, according to the study
Hollywood Beach in Florida appears in fourth position in the U.S ranking
Commenting on the 2024 ranking, Sarah Firshein, head of editorial at Tripadvisor, said: 'Last year, Tripadvisor received millions of reviews for beaches — it’s clear that our community absolutely loves them.
'But as our Travellers' Choice lists reveal, there's no one-size-fits-all "beach day".
'Our top 25 winners alone encompass 18 countries across five continents. The top three beaches are all in Europe, ousting the perennially popular Caribbean from those spots - a sign that some travellers are eager to swap typical resort vacations for the coastlines of Portugal, Italy, and beyond.'
