Generally speaking, diving isn't a very sexy sport. Let's face it: we pull ourselves into skin-tight wetsuits that don't flatter us. We wear goofy-looking equipment that makes us wobble around the boat. And when we're finished diving, we get a weird ring around our faces, and we usually have snot dripping from our noses. We're not a sexy bunch. But that doesn't mean the places we visit can't be sexy.
In fact, the world is filled with sexy, dive-friendly islands, and if you doubt me, check out this list of the world's 10 sexiest islands. The list's makers claim that, to be "sexy," the islands had to be "neither overdeveloped nor underdeveloped"; had to maintain the right level of indulgence; had to be neither too easy (not too hard) to reach; and had to have unusual natural or cultural features. Briefly, the islands are:
Anguilla Corsica Hvar Formentera Lhaviyani Atoll Molokai Paradise Island St. Barthelemy Santorini SardiniaBe sure to check out the slideshow of the islands. It includes tips on where to stay and how to get there.
