Top Most Dangerous Beaches In The World

Playa Zipolite (Mexico) – Drowning

Amazing beach in Mexico, Oaxaca, Zipolite. The beach name is Playa Zipolite

Although this beach is well-known for its beauty, seclusion, and laid-back hippie vibe, its powerful rip currents have resulted in numerous drownings. 

A volunteer lifeguard force has been on duty since 1995 to help with the issue, and flags on the beach designate swimming-specific danger zones.

Bikini Atoll (U.S. Marshall Islands) – Radiation

The beauty of this Micronesian island conceals a lethal history of nuclear weapons tests conducted by the United States Army from 1946 to 1958. 

Tourism is limited because the atoll is still too contaminated by radiation to be inhabited permanently, and locally-grown food is unsafe to eat. Wreck divers, on the other hand, frequent the area.

Kilauea (Hawaii, USA) – Lava

The 6.5-mile-long lava flow from the Kilauea volcano, which has been erupting into the ocean since 1983, causes the water to boil and steam as the lava solidifies into rock. Although it’s breathtaking, take precautions because the U.S. Geological Survey warns that steam vents can shoot hot lava jets and fling rocks a long way.

Staithes (UK) – Pollution

Due to sewage overflows, this North Sea beach in Yorkshire is notorious for not meeting European water-quality standards and is one of the most polluted beaches on the continent. But in 2010, the regional government unveiled a strategy to enhance the coastline and address the pollution issue.

The Red Triangle (California, USA) – Sharks

From Bodega Bay in the north to Big Sur in the south, this 200-mile stretch of California coastline is home to an estimated 38% of all great white shark attacks in the United States.

A large population of sea lions, seals, and sea otter means plenty of food for sharks. It is a very dangerous spot for humans to navigate through
