Just back from 5 weeks in a record Hot European summer. If you appreciate eye candy, and like beaches where the missus can show off her assets without feeling out of place (as we do), the Balearic islands are the bomb. Ibiza, the famous party island is tops for city lovers who go clubbing, and nowhere outdoes Ibiza when it comes to flaunting the goods, for the best beaches and swimming sans clothes, the former hippe hideaway next door Formentera takes the Gold medal. Just loaded with World class beaches and bathing spots surrounded by superlatively seductive shades of Turquoise waters. Its not cheap, and its crowded and hot in season, but the visual spectacle is priceless.
