Sorry peeps, after part 1 I was somehow trying to limit the number of photos for this post but I simply CAN’T – this island is just too beautiful! As a result this is probably my photo-heaviest post so far (44 pics – whoops) but I promise I did my best to not even spam you more 😛 Caution – if you’re suffering severe wanderlust and beach cravings already, continue on your own risk 😉…
A gorgeous and one of the most exclusive island escapes is only a 1.5 hour flight away from New York City: The British Overseas territory of Bermuda. It’s where wealth meets casual Caribbean lifestyle, where honeymooners, yacht-owners and rich retirees come and sometimes stay. But it’s also a destination for adventure seekers and beach bums who’ll find some of the most breathtaking stretches of sand on the planet! (see here) Hamilton is the picturesque capital made of pastel-painted houses, restaurants,…

Because Phuket and I didn’t have a good start.…
An online travel guide says Grado isn’t much known outside Italy and Austria but among them it’s very popular for several reasons. Being Austria’s closest seaside resort (in Italy) and well connected by public transport, it’s the easiest way for a relaxing getaway by the beach. I remember Grado’s beach from my childhood days but not much else, however me and my friend are huge Italy fans, so this was our second trip together after Venice last year!…
We found our personal “Kokomo” (referring to a famous song by the Beach Boys) at the southernmost point of continental USA. The Florida Keys are a chain of hundreds of tropical islands surrounded by some of the nicest waters I’ve ever seen. The Overseas Highway is the major connection between mainland Florida and Key West, but also going through towns with beautiful names such as Key Largo, Islamorada, Marathon or Summerland Key.…
