It is often said no two sunsets are ever the same. Whether it’s the colors, clouds or scenery, each one has something unique. From the Jersey shores to the lava fields of Iceland, we’ve created a list of the top five best places to watch a sunset.
Grundarfjordur, Iceland
The small Icelandic town is situated between a mountain range and a field, making for a beautiful background scene as the sun falls below the horizon.
Micato Safaris, Kenya and Tanzania
We’ve all dreamt of a safari filled with encounters between lions, rhinos and elephants, but most often East Africa’s best memories are the sunsets. On Micato Safaris, the crew ensures a front-row seat to the most epic event. The African sun paints the land in colors that you never knew existed while casting silhouettes over the savannah wildlife.
The Taj Mahal, India
Thought of as one of the world’s architectural wonders, the Taj Mahal in Agra, India, transforms into a magical apparition as the sun begins to set. The sun’s rays bend around the white marble dome, bathing stuccoed walls, minarets and a garden in a pink and orange haze.
Hawai’i Island, Hawai’i
Located on Hawai’i’s Kohala Coast, Kauna’oa Bay is generally known as the best beach in the United States. With sparkling sand, it is the perfect venue for a magnificent sunset. Spend the day lounging in the turquoise waters, stake out the best beachfront spot and enjoy a sunset picnic, watching as the sun’s rays turn the sky and the Pacific into a surreal mix of yellow, orange and lavender.
Cairo, Egypt
The sight of Egypt’s hot red sun sinking and glittering between the peaks of the Great Pyramids is mesmerizing. You’ll be left with a profound sense of awe — and some impressive photos.
