22 Most Beautiful and Unusual Beaches Of World............Really Amazing.........Must See!!!

When someone says “beach” you probably think of yellow or white sand, rolling waves, bright sunlight and a beer or fruity cocktail.
But beaches come in far more different shapes and colors than some of us might have expected.
Here are some of the unusual beaches that you have never seen before...............


1. Unique Glass Beach, California












The glass beach near Fort Bragg in California formed after the trash dumped there for years by local residents was pounded into sand by the surf. The dumping was eventually prohibited, but the glass sand remains.


2. Hidden beach, Marieta, Mexico














This beach in Mexico is said to have formed after the Mexican government used the uninhabited islands for target practice in the 1900s.


3. Maldives Beach












The lights on this beach in the Maldives are caused by microscopic bioluminescent phytoplankton, which give off light when they are agitated by the surf.


4. The Beach of the Cathedrals, Ribadeo, Spain













The stunning cathedral-like arches and buttresses of this beach in Spain were formed by pounding water over thousands upon thousands years.


5. Pink Sand Beach, Bahamas
















The idyllic pink sand of the Bahamas is pigmented by washed-up coral remnants, which are dashed and ground to tiny pieces by the surf.


6. Extreme Plane Landings at Maho Beach, Saint Martin













The beach on the Dutch side of the Caribbean islands is known for all the low-flying airliners, which fly so closely above the beach that people can actually be blown into the water because of the jet blast (or that’s at least what the local government signs warn you about)


7. Jokulsarlon, Iceland













The black volcanic sand on this Icelandic beach contrasts beautifully with the white and glassy chunks of ice.


8. The Moeraki Boulders (Dragon Eggs) in Koekohe Beach, New Zealand













The boulders on this New Zealand beach are concretions – balls of sedimentary rock harder than the sedimentary earth that formed around them, which has long since washed away. These boulders get uncovered and smoothed by pounding waves.


9. Green Sand In Kourou, French Guiana















Instead of sand, this beach has grass.


10. Papakōlea Green Sand Beach, Hawaii
















The green sand on this beach in Hawaii is caused by the mineral olivine, which is formed by lava as it cools in the sea.


11. Giants Causeway Beach, Ireland













The giant’s causeway was formed 50-60 million years ago when basalt lava rose to the surface and cooled, cracking into strange, large columns.


12. Punaluu Black Sand Beach, Hawaii















The black sand on Punaluu is formed by basalt lava, which explodes as it flows into the sea and rapidly cools.


13. Red Sand Beach, Rabida, Galapagos













The red sand at Rabida was formed due to the oxidization of iron-rich lava deposits, although it could also be due to washed-up coral sediments.


14. Shell Beach, Shark Bay, Australia













The water near Shell Beach in Australia is so saline that the cockle clam has been able to proliferate unchecked by its natural predators. It is this abundance of molluscs that floods the beaches with their shells.


15. Pfeiffer Purple Sand Beach, California















The purple sand at this beach (which is only found in patches) is formed when manganese garnet deposits in the surrounding hills erode into the sea.


16. Vik Beach, Iceland










Iceland is a land with a lot of volcanic activity, which is why black volcanic beaches are so common there.


17. Cave Beach in Algarve, Portugal













The Algarve coast consists of limestone, which is easily eroded and can form stunning sea caves like this one.


18. Whitehaven Beach, Australia













Whitehaven Beach is known for its white sands. The crystal clear aqua waters and pristine silica sand of Whitehaven stretch over seven kilometres along Whitsunday Island , the largest of the 74 islands in the Whitsundays. It defines nature at its best and provides the greatest sense of relaxation and escape.


19. Koh Hin Ngam, Thailand















Koh Hin-Ngam or Koh Pulo has attracted many visitor that the tourists will surprised on this island has no white sandy beach but except for the beautiful stones were polished and shaped by the action of waves. The island is also known as according to myth: They said, every stones / rocks on this island it’s curse, because is shelter by The Curse Of The God Of Tarutao (Island), so if anyone who try to collect one of the stones on this island it will be curse bad luck but in the opposite, they believe if you can make a stack of 12 stones and make a wish, it will come true.


20. Taroa Beach – Punta Gallinas, Colombia













Taroa Beach at Punta Gallinas. This is the most northern point of South America and it is off the beaten path! The unique thing about this beach are the rolling sand dunes that fall directly into the sea.


21. Gulpiyuri beach, Asturias, Spain













Tucked away into a small inland hollow, right in the middle of a meadow, Gulpiyuri is one of the most amazing beaches in the world.


22. Marble Beach, Thassos Island, Greece













It is called the Marble Beach and this name has not come by accident - because of the white sand and white marble pebbles on the sea floor, the water has a unique white-blue color and reminds of the water on the shore of a tropical island. Even in the hottest days the sand is cool because of the small marble pieces in it.

10 Super Foods to Improve Your Memory Naturally and Boost Your Brain Power

Our brains also regulate thousands of complex functions, usually without bothering the conscious us with the exact details, such as with circadian rhythm, hormone balance, breathing, unconscious activity, and blood flow.

So, Here are some foods that boosts your brain power and increase your memory.


1. Avocado










Avocados are a source of monounsaturated fats, omega 3, and omega 6 fatty acids. These increase blood flow to the brain, lower cholesterol, and aid in the absorption of antioxidants. Avocados also come with many antioxidants of their own, including vitamin E, which protect the body and the brain from free radical damage. They are also a good source of potassium and vitamin K, both protect the brain from the risk of stroke. 

2. Beans and Legumes
















Beans and legumes are excellent sources of complex carbohydrates. These complex carbohydrates are also mixed with fiber that slows absorption, giving us a steady supply of glucose for the brain without the risks of sugar spikes associated with many other sugar sources. Beans and legumes are also rich in folate, a B vitamin critical to brain function and essential omega fatty acids.

3. Blueberries












These berries are antioxidant powerhouses, protecting the brain from oxidative damage and stress that lead to premature aging, Alzheimer’s, and dementia. The flavonoids in blueberries also improve the communication between neurons, improving memory, learning, and all cognitive function, including reasoning, decision making, verbal comprehension, and numerical anility. Other dark berries are good for the brain too, like blackberry, açai, and goji berries.

4. Broccoli









Broccoli is a superfood for the whole body. It is rich in calcium, vitamin C, B vitamins, beta-carotene, iron, fiber, and vitamin K. These nutrients protect against free radicals, keep blood flowing well, and remove heavy metals that can damage the brain.

5. Dark Chocolate








The flavonols in chocolate improve blood vessel function, which in turn improves cognitive function and memory. Chocolate also improves mood, can ease pain, and is full of antioxidants.

6. Nuts



















Nuts, especially Walnuts and Almonds, are extremely good for the brain and nervous system. They are great sources of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids, vitamin B6, and vitamin E. Vitamin E has been shown to prevent many forms of dementia by protecting the brain from free radicals, and it improves brain power. Nuts contain some anti-nutrients, like phytic acid. Since we consume a relatively small amount of nuts, this isn’t a huge problem, but they are far healthier if you soak them overnight (about 8 hours) before eating them.

7. Red Cabbage












Red cabbage is full of polyphenols, a powerful antioxidant that benefits the brain and heart. Red cabbage also has glucosinolates, compounds that fight cancer.

8. Spinach











Spinach can prevent or delay dementia. The nutrients in spinach prevent damage to DNA, cancer cell growth, and tumor growth, but also slow the effects of aging on the brain. Spinach is also a good source of folate and vitamin E.


9. Tomatoes









Tomatoes contain lycopene, a very powerful antioxidant that combats dementia and may improve mood balance too.

10. Whole Grains


















Whole grains are rich in complex carbohydrates, fiber, and some omega 3 fatty acids that shield the heart and brain from damaging sugar spikes, cholesterol, blood clots, and more. Grains also contain  vitamin B that have an effect on blood flow to the brain and mood. Whole grains should be soaked, fermented, sprouted, or grown as microgreens to unlock all their nutritional power and minimize any anti-nutrients.
