Clothing is optional, however, throughout the entire complex. Visitors can expect to find vast spreads of food and drink, ...

Jamaica is greater than the sum of its parts. But for many visitors, the only part they see is one of four major resort areas. There's always-lively Montego Bay, with its beaches, golf, shopping, and nightlife and Ocho Rios, known for its beaches and upscale resorts, while Negril, aka Beach Party Central, pulls in the younger set, and Port Antonio is a lush, quiet getaway. Visitors who explore find a beautiful island, a vibrant culture that goes far beyond reggae, and endless opportunities to play under the sun. You can golf, horseback ride, or dive (on wrecks and among the ruins of a ...

The Perhentian Islands are a small group of beautiful, coral-fringed islands off the coast of northeastern Malaysia in the state of Terengganu, not far from the Thai border. The two main islands are Perhentian Besar ("Big Perhentian") and Perhentian Kecil ("Small Perhentian"). Kecil, the more popular of the two, has cheap accommodation and a bit of a backpacker party scene, while Besar is slightly more expensive and caters more to families. The small, uninhabited islands of Susu Dara, Seringgi and Rawa lie off Kecil. All the islands belong to a protected marine park, which means that fishing...

It's never been all that easy to get to Hiva Oa – and that was part of the attraction for the likes of Paul Gauguin (who came here to escape the "Western influences" in the Tahiti of 1901), and Thor Heyerdahl (who, a decade before sailing Kon Tiki across the Pacific, came here with his young bride to live the "simple life. " And some things haven't changed – particularly the drop-dead natural beauty of the Marquesas Islands. The most northern island group in French Polynesia, (nearly a thousand miles from Tahiti), the Marquesas are rugged volcanic islands: There is no barrier reef ...

Ko Phangan - Overview Easily visible from Ko Samui and about two-thirds its size, Ko Phangan has beautiful beaches and inexpensive, basic bungalows. It's the simple beach life which attracts many tourists each year, and the island's reputation for full moon parties and hedonistic culture. During the 90's Phangan became popular with backpackers, budget tourists and aging hippies seeking paradise complete with cheap accommodation, New Age therapies and good cheap food. The Full Moon party scene still exists but the original word-of-mouth happening with only a few hundred partici...

Most travellers know of Copacabana, but half of them will tell you it's the place Lola lost her youth and her Tony. In fact, Copacabana is one of the world's great beaches, wedged on a strip of land at the foot of the most dramatic hills in very dramatic Rio de Janeiro. You could spend weeks in Brazil without leaving Copacabana and lots of people do just that. With a population of 350,000 spread through just 110 streets in four narrow blocks, Copacabana has one of the world's highest population densities, giving it a non-stop party atmosphere. For pure city excitement, Copacabana i...

If there is an island synonymous with the word "party," it’s Ibiza. For Europeans, this free spirit of the Balearic Islands off Spain is legendary not only for its beaches (more than 70 tucked around the island, some in small, hidden coves) but for its clubs and all-night raves. You might be thinking disco, but that term doesn’t begin to do justice to the anything-goes venues that can accommodate 5,000 guests, complete with swimming pools – and where hedonistically charged entertainments can be part theater and part circus, complete with dancers enveloped in bubbly foam showered from cannons. ...

your idea of vacation fun starts with sand, sun, sea, and nonstop action, then you'll love Cancun. It wasn't always that way. In the 1970s Cancun was just a long sandspit and a small fishing village. The Mexican government, however, had a different future in mind for those white-sand beaches and that turquoise water, and now the resort island is dotted with about 100 hotels that can handle some to 2 million visitors a year. Much of the Cancun experience has been crafted to reflect popular American tastes. If you want to party till dawn, it's no problema. You can also shop till ...
