Huatulco
Its full name translates as the Bays of Huatulco, and 36 inviting beaches are draped scenically along the nine lovely crescents here in the Mexican State of Oaxaca. This stretch of the Pacific shore is known for beautiful ribbons of white sand lapped by stunning azure waters - as well as the local pottery, particular to the region, made from striking black clay.

Manzanillo
This natural harbour was named after the Manzanillo tree, whose tough waterproof wood was once every shipbuilder's best friend. For decades, Manzanillo has been a secret destination for fishermen. The offshore waters teem with 70 species of game fish. One can fish for sailfish and dorado year-round.

Hilo
The Big Island is also known as the Volcano Island, as the 14,000-feet peaks of Mauna Lou and Mauna Kea create a backdrop of uncompromising beauty. Another nickname, the Orchid Isle, hints at the abundant flora within its rich rainforests, while macadamia nut plantations add their mark to the patchwork landscapes. Amidst all this, Hilo greets you with a sedate friendliness and delightful clapboard buildings.
