The Rockaways. NYC
One of our favorite New York City beaches is The Rockaways in Queens. You can easily reach The Rockaways via the A train and some patience, and if you know where you’re going it can be quite charming. In the past few years a small surf and art community has sprung up in the area [...]
Islamorada. The Florida Keys
A few weeks ago we were headed for a fun filled week in St. Kitts & Nevis, when some airline tomfoolery and inefficiency led to us getting stuck in Miami for a night. Instead of crying into our Cuban coffee, we rented a car and drove an hour and a half south to the town [...]
Todos Santos. Baja, Mexico
Todos Santos is a small, sleepy town on the Pacific Coast of Baja, Mexico. Located an hour and a half drive north of Cabo San Lucas, Todos Santos is still clinging to the old Mexican way of life, but with an added hint of modern charm and style that keeps the town from being too [...]

The area between Riverhead and Greenport is also known as Long Island Wine Country and is dotted with picture perfect vineyards, farm stands and B&Bs. And the towns of Greenport, Orient [...]
The Riviera Maya & Tulum
We took a quick trip with our friends to The Riviera Maya for a wedding in March. We were only there a couple days and didn’t have a lot of time for exploring, but we fell in love with the vibe and can’t wait to go back and do a proper guide. Thankfully, our pal [...]
Treasure Beach, Jamaica
Scooter Ride through town. Music by Caribou “Bowls” Treasure Beach, Jamaica is a small fishing village on the Southern Coast of Jamaica. It’s quiet, very low key and for the time being, relatively untouched by tourism. Unlike Negril or Montego Bay, there are no clubs, no big bars or restaurants, hardly any ATMS, and everything [...]
