Asia has many, many, many beaches which are unbelievable.  However, lying on a beach probably has less cache in the east than for most westerners.  The beach is meant for family time, sports, etc ... just lying on a beach is pretty much for westerners only, plus the fact that asians seem to like to swim with all their clothes on, perhaps a modesty issue.  Here's something from Concierge.com.

Forgive me if I feel compelled to debunk the myth of the Asian beach. This vast geographic expanse, with its exotic islands, fabled archipelagoes, and crenelated coastlines, offers few exquisite and accessible strands compared with, say, the Caribbean or the Mediterranean. "Nonsense," barked everyone with whom I discussed this assignment. When asked for nominations, however, the so-called experts divulged a mere handful and the neophytes conjured a largely mythical Bali Ha'i.
