We dive deeper into these enticing bodies of water.
A beautiful lake, with its glass, still above and in various colors, can display some of the most beautiful water features. Found around the world, from Bolivia to Siberia and Malawi to Pakistan, some of these natural and artificial wonders can make you completely forget about the beaches.

Laguna Colouradaada, Bolivia
Up in the mountains of Bolivia, about a three-hour drive north of Chile's San Pedro de Atacama, you will find Laguna Colorada, a reddish-brown Laguna Colorada. Their waters are a different color from red algae (although the legend puts you in the blood of the gods). Try to visit between December and April, when the shallow but beautiful pond is full of water, and the red-pink flamingos are collected for breeding.
Lake Attabad, Pakistan
In 2010, the town of Attabad in northern Pakistan was buried in mud. The event was a major natural disaster that halted the flow of the neighboring Hunza River, causing the formerly floodplain to quickly flood and leave thousands of people in the area. Over the past decade, this much-anticipated lake - Lake Attabad - has become a destination. Through water sports and boating, locals have built hotels and camping sites around the lake to rebuild their lives and livelihoods.
Lake Nakuru, Kenya
Found in Kenya's Rift Valley, Lake Nakuru is known for attracting various wildlife to its algae waters, including lions, leopards, and flamingos. Although rising water levels over the past few years have led to a decrease in salt intake, therefore, with a few more pink tourists, the protected area still looks good.
Lake Bacalar, Mexico
You will find Lake Bacalar just south of Quintana Roo, Mexico (near the Belize border), but its varied colors of blue and green can make you think you have come to French Polynesia. With its clear white rocks on the ground and clear water, a lake is a great place for boat and diving - and it takes a few pictures.
Lake Tahoe, Nevada, and California
Lake Tahoe is one of the largest alpine lakes in North America, built millions of years ago during the Ice Age. Located in Sierra Nevadas, it is gaining international acclaim for its magnificent mountain scenery, ski resorts, and Nevada casinos - not to mention the clear waters that you can see below. No wonder the Corleone family looked so much like it. (Except for Fredo, maybe.)Image may contain: Travel, Car, Boat, BoatGetty
Melissani Lake, Greece
With its two chambers - one dark and covered with stalagmites, the other illuminated by a large hole in the face - the Melissan Cave on the island of Cephalonia is an unforgettable sight. While the caves and sea basin Melissani Lake were discovered a few hundred years ago, the area was opened to the public in the early 1960s, with many hikers paddling in their blue waters from there.

Lake Lucerne, Switzerland
Just 40 minutes drive south of Zurich, and Lake Lucerne is the fourth-largest lake in Switzerland, located at 4,000 feet [1,424 m] in the country's center. It is part of a beautiful fjord landscape (currently maintaining a mild climate), and during the warmer months, visitors can enjoy a boat ride across the calm lake waters.
Lake Malawi, Malawi, Mozambique, and Tanzania
Crystal-clear Lake Malawi is the third-largest lake in Africa, making its coastline feel like a tropical ocean. Perhaps that is why the lake is a favorite of nightlife lovers - especially those who enjoy uncomfortable living conditions and adventures such as diving and kayaking.
Lake Titicaca, Peru, and Bolivia
The largest lake in South America (3,200 square miles [3,200 sq km)) and the world's highest navigation lake (12,500 feet [12,500 m] above sea level) is a place of blue water, hospitality, and snow-capped mountains. The main attraction here.
Crater Lake, Oregon
Reaching depths of 1,949 feet, the awe-inspiring Crater Lake, about a four-hour drive south of Portland, is the deepest in the United States. Its contents are supplied entirely by glacial runoff and precipitation—hence the water's clarity and intense blue hue.
