Now this is getting away from it all. Islands is the gift of instant relaxation in this, a tranquil year of scenic island retreats. Exquisitely photographed in full color are pristine tropical escapes, like Whitsunday Island and its brilliant white sand of pure quartz. Mediterranean wonders, including the cliffs of Santorini and the golden shores of Majorca. Plus a dramatic Nantucket sunset, the rice fields of Bali, and New Zealand's Milford Sound--acclaimed by Rudyard Kipling as the "eighth wonder of the world." One glance, and you're there.
