World’s Most Unusual Beach is a Glacier in Siberia


"A hidden gem of Yakutia, the Buluus glacier lies in a deep valley some 100km (62 miles) from Yakutsk, surrounded by pristine pine forests and lush green meadows. The glacier covers over 1000 hectares  (2,471 acres), and thanks to dozens of metres of permafrost underneath it, the ice doesn’t melt - even during exceptionally hot summers."

While winter temps in Siberia can fall to minus 60C (-76 Fahrenheit), recent July temperatures reached 30-32C (86-95 Fahrenheit). And where do people go to cool off? The Beach!
