"I'm looking forward to other summer fruits. We get the best peaches ever, and last year I kind of missed them because of the pandemic. This year I’m going to drive out to David Mas Masumoto’s or Frog Hollow, and I’m going to get them myself. They’re something rare. They have no shelf life. They have to be picked ripe, and they’re glorious. I think of myself as kind of a peach specialist."
Temporarily Closed
"Stopped at Hatch’s Fish Market in Wellfleet on the way out to pick up some of their kippered salmon. It is the best I’ve ever had. It feels sacrilege to say this, but it’s even better than the kippered salmon at Russ & Daughters. We also picked up Portuguese muffins for tomato sandwiches, which are like a larger and slightly sweeter English muffin."
Beach · Balearic Islands
"We took some beach towels, water, and sunscreen and stayed at this beach for two hours, though not for sunset because we wanted to have a drink in town."

Beach · Balearic Islands
"[The hike to the beach] was about an hour, and some of us went in the water, and the others hiked through the hills. It was pretty hard; we all had sneakers, but it was so hot we were just wearing bathing suits. But then you arrive in heaven; the beach was crazy beautiful. It was pretty empty because it’s hard to access. "

Beach · Balearic Islands
"We spent the whole afternoon at a beach on the south side of the island called Cala Macarelleta. It was more crowded than the beaches on our side of the island, but very nice."

Hotel · Balearic Islands
"Half of my friends had to leave, and the rest of us spent our last night in another hotel — a different one inland that was so gorgeous called Fontenille Santa Ponsa. Very authentic, but with a touch of luxury, like very white walls, linen sheets, a beautiful chair."
Retreat center · Vieques
"In Vieques, head to Finca Victoria, where I always stay and where I send New Yorkers. It’s owned by the same people as La Botánica, so it’s Ayurvedic and vegetarian as well. You can take several-day detox programs, or just get massages or do yoga by the pool."
Tourist attraction · Ensenada
"We spent a lot of time at the markets at La Bufadora, it was so much fun. All the shops are connected, it’s like a pathway. The stores don’t really have names, they’ll just say like, “Piña Colada,” and you go in and it’s the best piña colada."
Surf school · Puntarenas
"Meanwhile, my husband, because he can’t fit his longboard on the mini-plane, stops by the surf shop Jobbies Longboards. To rent a decent board, it’s $20 per day; he rode a Robert August 7’6” on our last trip this past April. You can also rent boogie boards for the kids, although I just buy them at one of the local supermarkets because they’re so cheap."
Public beach · Kauai County
"We, being the explorers that we are, drove to the beach over there, Polihale State Park. In order to get there, you have to drive off road a bit. We saw people driving in regular cars, but I would recommend a car you can take off road. Once you get there, you can walk out to the beach and get great views of the coast."
