St. Martin is a magical island
that is shared by the French and the Dutch; the two countries share an almost indiscernible and friendly border.  However, each side maintains its distinctiveness and represents its own culture.

The island has a very calm and secluded environment that makes it a perfect spot for vacationers.  The fact that the island has two distinct cultures makes it an exciting place to visit.  The beautiful island is warm and sunny throughout the year, the average temperature is about 82 degrees Fahrenheit.

Marigot, the capital city of St. Martin, has a vibrant French culture – it has colonial houses, bistros, pastry shops, luxurious boutiques, and European fashions.  The best part is that the entire city is very accessible and vacationer-friendly because it only has four wide streets.

The figure of Fort St. Louis is a huge historical monument that is located on the side of the island and it overlooks the Marigot Bay.  While you’re looking at this monument, you can get a great panoramic view of the island.  At the South of Marigot, there is a museum that preserves the island’s history and culture as it has an abundance of pre-Colombian treasures and extensive displays that manifest the plantation and slavery period.

Paradise Peak is the highest point on the island, after climbing 1,400 feet to the top, you can get a magnificent view of the landscape and tropical forest.  On the east of the island, there is a small village called Orleans, or French Quarter, which still preserves some of the seventeenth-century structures.  Spending a day in this beautiful village is a great learning experience that you will thoroughly enjoy.

There are a ton of fun-filled activities that the great island offers.  St. Martin has thirty seven stunning and unique beaches.  The beach at Grand Case and the Anse Marcel beaches have vibrant local cultures and are great beaches to visit with families.  Orient Bay beach is unique because it has white sand and it offers a great variety of water-sports.

Dining in St. Martin is world famous- the cuisine there ranges from French delicacies to Asian and Indian cuisine.  There are plenty of renowned restaurants on this island; many of them play music for dancing as well.

Given the rich culture of St. Martin, the gorgeous beaches, the historical sites, the enjoyable activities, and the romantic and peaceful atmosphere, a trip to this beautiful island will be a magical one that you will cherish for the rest of your life!

Almost the entire world knows that Sedona, strategically situated at the mouth of spectacular Oak Creek Canyon, is a unique place.  Characterized by massive red-rock formations, as well as the contrasting riparian areas of Oak Creek Canyon, the area surrounding this beloved community is considered at least as beautiful as many national parks.

As well as having a solid reputation as an artists’ enclave, Sedona offers visitors a wealth of trails ranging from leisurely jaunts to long, challenging backpacking treks. New Age spiritualists come to the area for its celebrated vortexes, mystical sources of energy. Among the state’s most photographed backdrops is Red Rock Crossing, where immense sandstone cliffs are reflected in the waters of Oak Creek.

Arizona’s golf courses are as diverse and spectacular as its landscape. With more than 300 courses across the state, Arizona can offer a unique golfing experience. Ranging from desert target style to links courses and alpine fairways.

Paleo-Indians came to the Sedona area more than 15,000 years ago.   Nearby you will find ancient cliff dwellings and ruins occupied by the Sinagua people between A.D. 1100 and A.D. 1300.   The largest cliff dwellings in the area have been cited as world class by archeologists!   If that doesn’t get you archaeological interests peaked… how about pictographs?   Carvings on rocks in place are called petroglyphs and drawings on these same surfaces are called pictoglyphs!   This ancient “rock art?   Is common to eastern Utah, the Grand Canyon, the Canyon de Chelly and the Sedona area but is rare elsewhere.   Young and old alike will find these unique ancient sites both educational and interesting!

Red Rock State Park is a 286 acre nature preserve and environmental education center. The park, which operates both as a nature reserve and an environmental center, offers beautiful scenery. Trails throughout the park wind through manzanita and juniper to reach the rich banks of Oak Creek. Green meadows are framed by native vegetation and hills of red rock.

Slide Rock Park
The park is named after the famous Slide Rock, a stretch of slippery creek bottom adjacent to the homestead. Visitors may slide down a slick natural water chute or wade and sun along the creek or swim in the natural rock slide pools.

To ancient Indian tribes, the red rock valley of Sedona was sacred land only to be used for special rites and ceremonies.   Long ago, they established the locations of focused power, the vortices.  A vortex is considered a place of energy and may be either positively or negatively charged and is considered masculine or feminine.
These ancient sites are visited daily and a number of the “vortexes” in the Sedona area are within an easy drive and a short walk.   These concentrations of the earth’s power have inspired many a visitor’s spiritual Sedona experience.   Nearby vortexes include Bell Rock, Cathedral Rock, and Airport Mesa.

If you have never been to Sedona you have missed alot of fun.  You can golf, hike, mountain bike, fish, hot air balloon rides, rafting and things you haven’t even thought of.  A week long stay at Sedona Pines Resort is just $398 for a 1 bedroom/sleeps 4.  This is another member benefit with a Travel Membership with a GRN membership.

Lush tropical rainforests, year-round sunshine, pristine coral reefs, sand-adorned shorelines and a lack of poisonous creatures make Fiji an ideal eco-tourism destination.

Travelers can pick from the 200 or so scattered isolated islands that offer a brimming palette of environmentally sound options.

There are six established national parks, four of which can be found on the main island of Viti Levu. There are nature reserves for bird watching, unique species of iguanas, dense tropical rainforests with variations of flora and fauna from region to region.

There are thousands of plants with unique medicinal value like the ‘uci’ which is great for aroma therapy. There’s also the beautiful Tagimaucia flower which is unique to the volcanic craters of Fiji’s third largest island Taveuni.

Each natural reserve has unique features that attract from all over world. The Sigatoka sand dunes have seen excavations by scientists in search of historical artefacts. Much of the dunes still store pieces of pottery and other signs of early Fijian life which tourists stumble upon. On the island of Vatulele, known for its unique red prawns, villagers have a special ceremony that “calls” the prawns to the surface. Abaca national park and the Colo i Suva national forest are a storehouse of native vegetation.

There are heaps of places that Fiji should show off including waterfalls that cascade straight into the ocean, lakes in the middle  of craters, reef systems thriving with life, thermal geysers that create pools with medicinal properties, culturally significant places where the first Fijians walked and many others.

Various  tours and activities are organised all year round to enable visitors to see such places. From caves and waterfalls to meandering rivers and high rise unique mountain ranges, you’re sure to find something to suit your love of awe and adventure.  If you’re curious enough, there are many places to be explored on mainland as well as the outer islands. All it takes is a bit of time, a good guide and some really good hiking boots – and your swimmers… for diving into pools, the ocean or rivers along the way!

If you’ve longed to visit Fiji, pack your bags. Naigani Island is 540 acres of lush tropical vegetation, white sand beaches and crystal clear waters, located near Ovalau (Fiji’s old Capital Levuka) off the eastern coast of Fiji’s main island Viti Levu.

Native Americans, English, Spanish, and French colonists, pirates, African-Americans, and soldiers – all part of South Carolina history – have all left their footprints on the sands of South Carolina’s Treasured Coast.

Evidence of early Hilton Head Island, South Carolina history dates to 1450 B.C. with The Indian Shell Ring in the Sea Pines Forest Preserve.

In 1663, Sir William Hilton lent his name to the Island while searching for the entrance to Port Royal. His glowing report of the ideal farming conditions promoted British colonization.

Daufuskie Island, Bluffton and Hilton Head Island have all played important roles in American history – from the American Revolution through the Civil War and the Reconstruction.
