On well-known Pampelonne beach in the south of France, Bagatelle St. Tropez recently opened new additions to its restaurant and Sam Baron-designed beach club, including a trendy pool and beach bar. Bagatelle Mykonos, a new Bagatelle outpost in Greece, designed by Fabrizio Casiraghi, is an ode to the Mediterranean/Aegean region, with its Mykonos village location and incredible cuisine.
With décor inspired by the surrounding sea and white stone of the Greek landscape, Beefbar Athens, located within Four Seasons Astir Palace Hotel Athens, displays craftsmanship and raw materials in its design, exuding a relaxed yet refined ambiance with, of course, breathtaking views of the Eastern Mediterranean’s Saronic Gulf.

Sep 15, 2023Beyond the Beach: See Hawai’i’s Diverse Verdant and Volcanic Landscapes on an Island-Hopping Cruise
Midway Atoll is the end of the Hawai‘ian Islands, literally. This is the ultimate fate of these low, sandy islets ringing a lagoon: Eventually these last remnants of a once large volcanic island will sink beneath the waves, completing a story that began 1,500 miles away. Midway, though not easy to get to, occasionally features in cruise itineraries. Holland America Line’s Westerdam offers a rare chance to glimpse the remotest of all the Hawai‘ian Islands with a scheduled stop in October 2024.

Sep 14, 2023Hidden Gem: Discover the Distinct Biodiversity and Fascinating Cultural Riches of Madagascar
For sightseeing, there is quite literally no other place in the world like Madagascar. Formed more than 150 million years ago when a chunk split off the supercontinent Gondwana, eventually creating the globe’s fourth-largest island, Madagascar evolved in isolation, developing a unique ecosystem entirely its own. Up to 90 percent of all Madagascar’s plant and animal species exist nowhere else. This is the only place to visit the natural habitat of proto-primate lemurs; the multifingered aye-aye; the catlike fossa; spindly baobab trees; and the multiple exotics found in the unique rain forests, dry deserts, high plateau, coasts and island ecosystems of what is dubbed “the eighth continent.”
