Everyone likes to relax on a beach but these beaches are everything but relaxing from beaches
with terrifying animals on land and in the sea to beaches where you have a nearly 100 chance of
having your things stolen and even beaches where planes will fly right over your head and may well
take you out fishhoak south africa south africa is known as a pretty dangerous country in many ways
but you'd think that you'd be pretty safe by the beach right well no this beach looks pretty
nice on the surface but one thing you'll realize is the lack of people on the sand
and even less people in the sea that's because fish oak is one of the most shark infested waters
in the world the waters are home to hundreds of great white shark this is a carnivorous shark with
a particular taste for humans also because south africa is so hot this does not help the sharks at
all the high temperatures actually irritate the sharks and make them more likely to bite humans
since the 60s there have been many underwater nets set up on the beach this is to try and contain the
sharks and make sure they can't get too near to the people swimming but sometimes the sharks bite
through the nets and they don't cover the entire beach meaning the sharks sometimes get through
in 2010 alone there were more than 21 people bitten by sharks locals totally avoid this
speech and it's also advised that tourists don't go in the water further than their knees otherwise
they may well lose parts of their body copacabana beach brazil brazil is yet another country which
is known for its amazing beaches but high crime rates you may think that the beach would be a
place to escape from this but really it's the exact opposite because of all of the tourists
here this is a prime place for criminals if you step foot on this beach you have a pretty
good chance of being robbed sometimes tourists are even injured by the criminals on the bench
in 2015 police even banned local youths from going onto the beach that's because they believed
that rio de janeiro's younger population was stealing from tourists locals advise tourists
not to bring their valuables onto the beach this includes phones wallets passports and cameras
sometimes robbers even rip necklaces of people's necks while they're wearing them another trick
they use is to start a fake brawl with one another beachgoers will then stand up and walk away or
towards the action to see what's going on but when doing this they'll leave their valuables behind
for the people to come and steal so keep a close eye on your belongings if you go to this beach
fraser island australia fraser island is the largest sandy island in the world it's visited
by only the most adventurous tourists and that's because it's known for its wildlife which can be
pretty dangerous unlike on many beaches the danger is not necessarily in the water the island is home
to many land animals which sometimes attack and take out tourists there are wild dingoes on the
island which sometimes disturb tourists on the beach these dingoes sometimes bite scratch and
even take people's lives if you go here make sure to avoid these animals don't let your children go
anywhere near them never feed them and lock up all of your food rubbish and ice boxes scarily these
animals often operate in packs and sometimes gang up on tourists the island is also home to giant
pythons this means you could be bitten or squashed by a snake if you go onto this island funnel web
spiders also live on the beach these funnel web spilobites have been responsible for nearly 13
people passing on and they can also take out animals such as dogs so don't bring your pet to
this beach also if you do get injured don't count on being rescued there aren't many paved roads on
the island this means it takes paramedics a long time to get to the beach but make no mistake the
water is as dangerous as the land on this beach there are jellyfish which are known to take humans
lives there are also sharks which sometimes bite beachgoers and the sea has rough conditions and
rip currents this means you could well be pulled under the sea if you're not a very strong swimmer
maho beach saint martin saint martin is a beautiful island in the caribbean it has many
amazing beaches but its most dangerous is maho beach this is a beach right next to saint martin's
only airport and on the beach airplanes fly right over your head this makes it a hot spot for people
to go to simply because it's so weird how often do you see a gigantic jumbo jet right over your head
the planes get so close to the beach that people are sometimes knocked over the airport's runway
is very short because the island's small so that's why airplanes go right over the beach goers heads
the government warns tourists not to go to this place when there's planes but of course people
ignore this as they want to see the planes up close there are many warning signs but this
simply made the place even more interesting and alluring to tourists these warnings and
signs aren't all for show in 2017 a new zealand woman was watching a jet fly right over her head
but that's when its engine blasted and she went flying across the beach sadly she fell on her head
and never recovered the planes on this speech are an amazing sight to see but maybe from a distance
not up close skeleton coast namibia the skeleton coast is one of the most extreme places on the
planet the reason for its name is because of all of these skeletons you'll find on this beach there
are skeletons of living things for example whales and also skeletons of old boats and shipwrecks too
sadly there are even human skeletons on this beach the coastline is very rocky and there are also
dangerously big waves and a thick fog these harsh conditions have caused many to pass away on this
beach over 1 000 ships have gone missing and then were shipwrecked on this coast the locals call
skeleton coast the land god made in anger there is no drinkable water anywhere near this beach
and the heat is absolutely scorching this means many who are shipwrecked succumb to dehydration
the skeleton coast is also one of the most isolated places in the world this means if you do
run into trouble on this beach then no coast guard will come and help you ciao patty beach india
ciao patty beach is located on the arabian sea naturally the beach is fairly safe but
it's the humans that go to the beach which make it dangerous because of the massive population that
go here they've destroyed the beach with trash and waste many mumbai festivals and events are held on
chowpatty beach all of these thousands of people leave a lot of trash and this is never picked up
this means that this is one of the most polluted beaches in the world some describe it as landfill
with water next to it rather than a beach and there's even been reports of human waste in
the sea this is very dangerous as you can get ill and infections from going anywhere near the water
there's also pollution on the beach which causes toxic fumes which can be very dangerous for your
health if you breathe in this polluted air too much this could cause problems for your lungs and
heart queensland and the tiwi islands australia australia is known for its dangerous wildlife
and nothing is a better example of this than the queensland and tiwi islands beaches
many tourists who go here don't realize that it's infested with box jellyfish these creatures stings
are equipped with one of the most powerful poisons in the world the stinging cells of these creatures
can cause severe burns and if you're stung by one you may pass away within a few minutes
they blend into the waves making them very hard to notice which adds to the danger
north sentinel island the beach surrounding this island is off limits that's because the north
centralised tribe live here the island is technically territory owned by india
but the indian government forbid any indians from going onto this island they don't want to spread
any diseases and wipe out this tribe also the tribe barrage anyone who comes anywhere near the
island with arrows last year two fishermen got way too close to the island they ended up being shot
by arrows and never made it back also two years ago a missionary went to the island on a boat he
was trying to convert the island's people to god but he ended up being taken out by their arrows
when a rescue helicopter came to try and retrieve his body this was also fired at with arrows so not
only is this beach a prohibited place but also the residents won't let you come anywhere near
new smyrna beach florida this is one of the most dangerous beaches in the usa and the world the
reason why is because it's one of the biggest shark hot spots on earth so far over 240 people
have been injured by sharks on this beach and sadly many people did not make it out alive
one day in september of 2016 three people were injured by sharks within three hours
officials advise you not to go into the water deeper than your knees but many surfers do
and sometimes they pay the price in 2017 melanie lawson was paddling on the beach
that was when she was knocked over and bitten on the leg by a shark so if you're in the usa
it's probably best to avoid this beach now it's time to make your voice heard comment below which
