There's a lot of plainly beautiful places in the world. White sands and crystal blue waters. Palm trees, grass huts, the whole nine. If you've seen one, you've seen 'em all, and at this point we can all agree that plain old pristine is a little played out. Which is why we can totally sympathize with Outside Magazine's Editors' Choice of the island of Kiwayu, just off the coast of Kenya, as a must visit vacation destination, if only for the measured risk inherent in the location. Most resorts don't list Security between Location and Weather on their website's navigation bar, for instance. And don't be surprised at the occasional Somolian warship quietly passing by on the horizon. Just keep snorkeling.
Incidentally, here's an interesting short documentary about the island's practice of flip-flop recycling.
