Top 10 Southeast Asian Beach Destinations

Southeast Asia is home to some of the world's most spectacular coastal environments, with over 173,000 kilometers of combined coastline across Indonesia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, and Myanmar. The region's beaches benefit from a tropical climate that delivers warm seas year-round and are flanked by extraordinary marine biodiversity — the Coral Triangle, which overlaps with the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia, contains 76% of all known coral species. Beach tourism contributes an estimated USD 35 billion annually to Southeast Asian economies.
