Jeff Gunn/FlickrCalifornia has the world's most popular beaches, according to data from Pinterest's new Place Pins product.

Australia also had multiple sandy stretches in the top 10 ranking.

The visual discovery site introduced Place Pins - which let users mark their favorite places with images on a map - less than six months ago, but already has nearly one billion pins on over 100,000 Place Boards.

Pinterest mined these pins to count up the beaches that were most frequently added to people's wish list and travel plan boards all over the globe.
