some of them within our region --------- Robert Landau / Corbis Sunbathers line the beach in Bodrum, Turkey. Bodrum, TurkeyThe vibe: European? Asian? Yes. Picture this: Languorous days and steamy post-twilight action are guaranteed in this little Turkish town by the Aegean. The Turks themselves come here to let loose, and the beaches are full of hot-looking people of all persuasions and ethnicities. At night, moonlit clubs thump with a mix of Turkish hits and European dance music. When you've had your fill, take a romantic stroll around the pretty traditional villages and lemon groves in the surrounding hills. The crowd: This really is a melting pot of continents and cultures. That beautiful woman in a barely-there bikini? Could be an Istanbul attorney, could be an Italian countess. You should walk over and find out for yourself. The sundowner: When the lights come on at Bodrum Castle (you can't miss it, it's the structure that dominates the bay), it's time to order a Raki. An anise-flavored liqueur, similar to ouzo or Sambuca, it's nicknamed "lion's milk" due to its milky color when mixed with water or ice—and it's also rumored to have a lionlike affect on the libido. Come to bed: Hole up at the swish Kempinski Hotel in Barbaros Bay. With balconies overlooking the Gulf of G�kova and LCD satellite TVs, it'll take something special to get you out of your room. Something like couples' massages at the property's Six Senses spa, perhaps. Kempinski Hotel Barbaros Bay Tel: 90 252 311 0303 Doubles from $412

CORFU, GREECE Corfu isn't just for boozing 'n' bonking package-holiday Brits: There are still plenty of unspoiled, olive grove–rimmed beaches for the more discriminating (and less sunburned) among us. This exotic island has a long literary history, too: After all, it supposedly inspired Shakespeare to shipwreck Prospero. Rub suntanned elbows with: Tousle-haired Greek shipping heirs and the spoiled-but-sexy girls who bed them. Best way to cool off: A martini the way the Greeks like 'em—extra-dry, with a local olive. Beach chic: Dig through Mom's closet for her best vintage Paco Rabanne bikini, circa 1965—or a Gernreich monokini if you dare. Where to bed down: The peninsula-set Grecotel Corfu Imperial, which has three private sandy beaches and enough space to moor a private yacht (all the better to lure those shipping heirs). Grecotel Corfu Imperial Tel: 30 26610 91 481 Doubles from $610
