Especially for young vacationers, a trip is only complete with numerous photos on Instagram. Or to put it another way, if it's not on Instagram, did it even happen? But some destinations are better suited for this than others! Want to make friends and family jealous with great beach photos? Then watch out: Here are 4 Instagram-worthy dream beaches!

Railay Beach, Krabi

Once a laid-back fishing village in Krabi, now an influencer's paradise: Railay Beach is arguably one of the most beautiful spots in Asia and has become a real Instagram hit. And rightly so: the crystal-clear turquoise sea and spectacular limestone cliffs make the beach an ideal photo location. But what makes this place even more special is the fact that it's cut off from the rest of the mainland by a series of steep hills, which means you can only get there by boat. Crowds of tourists? No chance! 

Shipwreck Beach, Zakynthos

Many call Shipwreck Beach the most beautiful beach in Europe. The biggest attraction on the Greek island of Zakynthos is definitely a real highlight. With its turquoise blue water and snow-white sand, Navagio Bay on the Greek island Zakynthos is one of the most popular photo locations in the world. With this great view, it's no wonder, right? Especially the viewpoint in the northwest of the island offers a breathtaking panorama and the perfect photo motif. Actually, the beach on the small Ionian island is called Navagio, but it is much better known under the name Shipwreck Beach. This is mainly due to the fact that there is the wreck of a wooden ship in the fine sand. Especially because of the ship, the beach has become a real Instagram spot. Anyone can pose boringly on the beach, but with this dream backdrop, the likes are guaranteed! 

Waikiki Beach, Hawaii

One of the biggest beach stars on Instagram is Waikiki Beach in Hawaii. The Honolulu city beach is one of the most photographed beaches in the world. If you also make the effort to hike up to the nearby "Diamond Head", you will be rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view. Every photo succeeds on this picturesque beach!

Whitehaven Beach, Australia

This dream beach of superlatives consists of 99% quartz and is one of the whitest beaches in the world. Whitehaven Beach not only convinces its visitors with its unique sand, but also won awards for being the "cleanest beach in Queensland". Good prerequisite for the perfect Instagram photo!
