7. Lanai, Hawaii

Lanai is the sixth largest of the Hawaiian islands, with 46 miles of coastline and a rare spot in the world that has retained its pristine beauty.

On Lanai’s east coast, Shipwreck Beach is a haven for beachgoers and a testament to the island’s reputation as an unsafe harbor during hurricanes. Named for the rusting remains of a World War II freedom ship offshore, this eight-mile-long rope records everything from the hull of the Nautilus to wood and other ocean debris. While the waters around Shipwreck are generally too rough for safe swimming, the southern shore facing Hulopoe Bay offers crystal-clear waters and some of the best snorkeling in Hawaii.

At a national historic landmark on the south side of the island, you’ll find some of the best-preserved ruins and stone carvings from ancient Hawaii. Check into the Lanai Hotel, which offers uniquely decorated rooms for just $149 a night, plus a complimentary breakfast featuring local specialties each morning.

If you have watched the music video "Maldives Love Story" by male singer Noo Phuoc Thinh, you will surely be fascinated by this island because of its majestic beauty. Maldives is an island nation located in the Indian Ocean, including many other small coral island groups.

While the landscape of the Maldives is mainly lagoons and beautiful beaches dominated by coconut palms and breadfruit trees, the forests are home to up to 250 species of plants and are home to many animals. Since only a few animals live on dry land, most of the Maldives’ fascinating biodiversity can be explored in the sky or underwater.
