Take a trip down to the beach at Boracay and you'll see the sky, in gorgeous shades of purple and pink, reflecting off the white sands.
We all know the best places to go on vacation are the ones with the best sunsets.
Catching an amazing sunset for your Instagram feed is one of the must-do’s of a good vacation. Frankly, a stunning view at the end of the day can really enhance your trip, no matter where you go.
Plus, no place is exactly the same when it comes to gazing into the setting sun as it lights up the sky with beautiful reds, oranges, blues and purples. People who say all sunsets are alike haven’t really spent enough time looking at them, right?
Take a look at a sunset on a beach in Hawaii. It can’t possibly be compared to a sunset perched perfectly on the horizon while climbing in the Rocky Mountains or standing on a rooftop in New York City. All this to say, you absolutely need to travel the world to get a taste of every kind of sunset Mother Nature has to give.
For a little inspiration for a journey to see one for yourself, we've rounded-up some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world. Seriously, you're in for a good view.
