The most popular type of recreation is considered to be beach, but not everywhere vacationers can expect comfort, joy and safety. 10 beaches that are located in incredibly beautiful corners of the planet, but associated with a great risk to life. 

1.

Black Beaches of Kilauea - Hawaii

Hawaii, thanks to its geographical location, the hospitality of the local population and beautiful beaches, has become the most popular resort with a world name. But few people know that dangers await here, and the black beaches of Kilauea are one of them. The fact is that Hawaii is a relatively young group of islands, which means that there are a lot of active volcanoes here.

2.

The Kilauea volcano is considered the most active. The place where it is located is incredibly beautiful, so many tourists come here to admire the black beaches that were formed as a result of the eruption of lava and ash. Despite the beauty and uniqueness, this place is considered quite dangerous due to the unpredictable behavior of the volcano, so before the trip it is necessary to collect information and think carefully whether it is worth planning a vacation here.

3.

Gansbaai Beach - South Africa

4.

The Gansbaai region in South Africa is the so-called capital of great white sharks. A huge number of them cruise along the coast. For many, this information is enough not to go here, but there are desperate people who love to tickle their nerves, and therefore consider this a great place to relax. All those who want to meet sharks go underwater in special protective cages that allow you to get very close to the monsters. You can’t do this on your own, only by contacting specialists who provide such services.

5.

Shchitovaya Bay – Russia

6.

Shchitovaya Bay is a popular spot among surfers, who consider it one of the best for surfing. There are military ships in it, so to surf you need to get a special permit from the military. But because of the disgusting road it is almost impossible to get here, and the water is not very clean.

7.

Beaches of the Amazon - South America

The jungle in the Amazon River basin is a very dangerous place. Most of the territory is poorly studied and is fraught with various dangers, although the places here are incredibly beautiful. The Amazon is rich in diverse flora and fauna. Scientists have counted about 2,500 different species of fish, but this is not the limit, since the research is not yet complete. Among the dangerous animals and fish here, tourists can meet anacondas, piranhas, electric eels, etc. Going on vacation here is not the best idea!

8.

Zipolite - Mexico

9.

Mexico is known for its many beautiful places, including the beaches of Cancun, which are the most beautiful in the world. But Mexico is also home to Zipolite, which is called the "beach of death", the most dangerous beach in the world. This is a great example of how beauty can be deceiving. From the shore, everything is very harmless, but in fact, the waves are so dangerous that it is better not to swim here, since according to statistics, many deaths occur in these places every year, despite the fact that a whole team of specially trained lifeguards monitors the safety of vacationers.

10.

Fraser Island - Australia

11.

Fraser Island is very beautiful with its white sand, azure waters, jungles and long beaches. Everyone who sees a photo will want to come and relax here. It seems that heaven on Earth is located right here. But the fact is that it is forbidden to go to the island. Very dangerous sharks and jellyfish live in the waters of the lake. In addition, crocodiles and poisonous spiders live here.

12.

Volusia County - Florida

13.

Florida is known as the sunniest place in the world. There are so many things to do, including partying in Miami, visiting Disney in Orlando, etc. But in 2013, numerous reports of shark attacks on vacationers began appearing in the media, especially in Volusia County. More sharks congregate off the coast of the county than in Gansbaai, South Africa. Fortunately, most encounters have been non-fatal, but one must be very careful.

14.

Chowpatty Beach - India

15.

India is known for its culture, cuisine and beauty. Chowpatty Beach, located in Mumbai, is considered the most famous for being one of the dirtiest beaches in the world. It is littered with garbage, and the water is full of sewage and human waste. Once a year, many residents of Mumbai gather on the beach to celebrate a festival dedicated to the Hindu deity Ganesh Chaturthi. Among the traditional ceremonies is the ritual of bathing in the waters of the sea, but the water is so dirty that many people get sick after bathing in it, especially children and the elderly.

16.

Bikini Atoll - Marshall Islands

17.

Bikini Atoll is famous for its rich marine flora and fauna. It is said that there are very beautiful places for scuba diving. But as beautiful as the atoll is, it is also dangerous. Among the underwater inhabitants, you can meet a large number of sharks that like to dine here. But that is not all the dangers. The fact is that from 1946 to 1958, nuclear weapons were tested in this region. Although the government declared this place absolutely safe, there is still a risk.

18.

North Sentinel Island Andaman Islands

19.

The locals of North Sentinel Island are known for their hostility towards outsiders. There have been numerous cases where people have tried to contact the natives, and they have responded by shooting them with arrows. There was also a case where a boat docked at the island and two passengers were killed by the locals. The island is very dangerous, guests are not welcome here, as for centuries the locals have lived completely isolated from civilization.
There is no reason at all to risk your life, especially since there are a huge number of beautiful and safe places in the world.
