What's in a Place?


Have you ever wondered why we pick the beach as one of our top vacation destinations? Year after year, regardless of poll, beach getaways tend to make the top five of any place to visit?

So what's in a place? More specifically, what's so special about the beach?

Interviews with coastal habitat specialists, including Dr. Beach, will tell all you need to know about the uniqueness in biodiversity and climate of these special places. But what else about the beach continues to lure generation after generation?

Some say the tranquility, while others the climate (in reference to the tropical beach). And finally, others describe it as the frontlines between the known and the unknown, a metaphor for transition.

Regardless of what lures you this this place, where the land meets the sea, help preserve its more delicate feature for future generations, avoid polluting it with garbage and learn all you can about its distinct animal-life.

Stay at hotels that work to not only accommodate their guests, but also protect the environment they inhabit.
