Seven coastlines, seven experiences, and a whole lot of excitement in between.
A beach day doesn't always have to mean just sand and sea. At some of the world's most glamorous coastlines, it means white daybeds, effortless service, sunset cocktails and food that's worth the trip on its own. These beach clubs have turned a simple day out into something truly memorable. Here are 7 that do it best.
1. Club 55, Saint-Tropez
On Pampelonne Beach, Club 55 has been part of Saint-Tropez's story since the sixties. What began as a small beach shack has grown into one of the most loved spots on the French Riviera, and somehow it has never lost its easy, unhurried charm. A sunbed costs approx. ?4,400 to ?6,600 (€40–60), while a long, leisurely lunch runs ?16,500 to ?33,000 per person (€150–300). Given the history and the setting, every rupee goes toward an experience that's hard to find anywhere else.
2. Scorpios, Mykonos
Scorpios sits right on Paraga Beach, bringing together music, wellness and design in one beautifully laid-back space. Afternoons here drift naturally into golden-hour sunsets and lively evenings, all without ever feeling rushed. A daybed costs approx. ?16,500 to ?27,500 per person (€150–250), with sunset tables priced a little higher for the front-row view. It's the kind of place that earns its reputation the moment you walk in.
3. Nammos, Mykonos
Many consider Nammos the crown jewel of Mykonos, and it's easy to see why. Set on Psarou Beach, it pairs front-row daybeds with a menu that could easily hold its own at any fine-dining table in the city. A daybed here costs approx. ?33,000 to ?66,000 (€300–600), plus a minimum spend that reflects just how complete the experience is, right down to the table settings and the view.
4. Maçakizi, Bodrum
Tucked into a private bay on Turkey's Bodrum coast, Maçakizi offers a softer, slower kind of luxury. It's become a favourite among well-travelled guests who love its relaxed pace and menu full of fresh, seasonal flavours. The minimum spend runs approx. ?22,000 to ?25,300 per person (€200–230), and in return, you get a rare kind of calm that feels increasingly precious.
5. Drift Beach, Dubai
At the One&Only Royal Mirage, Drift Beach brings a wonderful slice of Ibiza energy to the Dubai coastline. Between the lively beach parties and the Mediterranean menu, it works just as well for a relaxed afternoon as it does for an evening out. A day pass costs approx. ?9,100 to ?14,300 (AED 350–550), and since most of it can be redeemed on food and drinks, it ends up feeling like genuinely good value.
6. Amante, Ibiza
Carved into the cliffs of Cala Sol d'en Serra, Amante is one of the most beautiful beach clubs on the island, with turquoise waters framing every single table. A table typically comes with a minimum spend of approx. ?16,500 to ?33,000 (€150–300), a price for what might just be the best sunset view in Ibiza.
7. Nobu by the Beach, Dubai
At Atlantis The Royal, Nobu by the Beach brings its celebrated Japanese-Peruvian menu right to the water's edge. It's sleek, modern, and pairs beautifully with the loungers overlooking the sea. Prices start at approx. ?7,800 and go up to ?15,600 (AED 300–600), matching a setting that feels every bit as thoughtfully put together as the food.
These beach clubs are about so much more than sunbeds and sea views. They're about the food, the music, the atmosphere, and that rare feeling of being somewhere truly special. Wherever your next trip takes you, any one of these seven beach clubs promises a day worth remembering.
