El Camaleón Golf Course at Mayakoba, Playa del Carmen, MX
Located in the gated Mayakoba complex, Greg Norman's El Camaleón is one of the most unique and exciting courses you will ever play. It's certainly the first time I ever had to contend with a cenote in the middle of the fairway, and coatis on the tee box.

Banyan Tree Mayakoba- Playa del Carmen, MX
Years ago, I watched a golf tournament played on an unbelievably beautiful course. The fairways were surrounded by dense jungle, flanked by a network of mangrove canals. I immediately vowed to visit one day, to wind through the wild waterways in an impossibly quaint little boat emblazoned with Mayakoba on the back. That day arrived in 2024.

Old Third Vineyard- Hillier, ON
While there are many options for wineries in Prince Edward County, Old Third should be on your short list. Not only do they have a fabulous Pinot Noir and a tasting room housed in a restored century old barn, they have pasta. Really, really good pasta.

Sandbanks Provincial Park- Picton, ON
Sandbanks Provincial Park is home to the largest bay-mouth barrier dune formation in the world. Formed by glaciers 12,500 years ago, sand deposition continues via longshore currents along Lake Ontario's Northern Shore. While wildly popular in the summer, fall brings a more desolate vibe to the windswept terrain, that is all yours to explore.
