20 Best Beaches in Europe

"Seeing waters so blue and sand so golden, you'd be forgiven for thinking you're somewhere much more far-flung than the northeastern coast of Spain. Here, the Atlantic Ocean turns turquoise. The area is a 90-minute drive from the nearest city, Oviedo, so the sheltered bay gives a sense of privacy. If you have the itch to walk, you'll also find beautiful hiking routes nearby for a spectacular top-down view." - Travel + Leisure Editors
