Daydreaming about a tropical beach getaway ? If you find your mind wandering to some sandy, sunny resort, stop dreaming and start planning! Your next trip could be to one of the top five beaches in the world. 

Rabbit Beach
Italy may be known for museums, pasta, and pizza, but have you ever thought about the beaches? In Lampedusa, Italy, you'll find one of the world's most beautiful beaches. You'll never want to leave after seeing the crystal clear water and sparkling sand of this secluded beach.

Grace Bay
It's easy to see why the Turks and Caicos Islands are such a popular resort location. The beaches do get crowded, but that's because they are some of the best in the world. Relax in the sand, float on the gentle waves, or explore the sea with snorkeling gear. The waters are crystal clear, so you can see all the wonderful sea life at the bottom. 

Matira Beach
You may be shocked by the beauty of this amazing tropical location, but don't let that stop you from participating in all the great activities. Watch a sunset on the beach or explore on one of the scenic hiking trails. Several boutiques and eateries are nearby. 

Hanalei Bay
You don't even have to leave the United States to enjoy a tropical location, thanks to the beautiful beaches in Hawaii. Hanalei Bay is one of the best on the island. Surfers and paddle boarders will love the ocean. If you're looking to just relax on the beach, the picturesque mountains in the background are sure to please. 

Playa Paraiso Beach
This natural beach in Cayo Largo Cuba is free of any hotels or resorts. It's named "paradise beach" for a reason. The shallow waters are great for long walks on the beach with the waves lapping at your feet. Get to the beach early to secure a seat and umbrella.

What do macaroons, a deli, flowers, and Sandra Bullock have in common? They can all be found at Walton's Fancy and Staple in Austin. This charming cafe serves made-to-order deli sandwiches and is filled with fresh made pastries, cakes, and cookies. Stop by during lunch and try the customer favorite "Turkey Sweet," a turkey sandwich with applewood smoked bacon, caramelized onions, apples, and white cheddar on a croissant.

Walton's also offers a small breakfast menu. Don't miss the challah French toast, made with a creme brulee batter and topped with fresh berries and real maple syrup! Grab several sweets to take home and a bunch of fresh flowers to cheer up your space. Although it's a casual spot with counter service, the space is full of charm with antique warehouse decor crossed with Parisian cafe elements.
