Sex on the beach: Top five sandy hotspots

3. Arrecifes, Tayrona, Colombia

For the more adventurous lovers in our ranks, the rugged beauty of Arrecifes Beach is situated on the north coast of Colombia in the National Park of Tayrona, home to 350 different species of wildlife and the archaeological remains of Ciudad Perdida (the Lost City).

The scene: you and your loved one in a hammock sipping cocktails. Turquoise water laps upon a shore of golden sand curving around a Caribbean bay, and beyond the palm trees are the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada rising out of tropical forest - simply magical!
