Okay, so maybe you don’t pick a travel destination solely on the likelihood that you’ll get lucky… In fact, you might be traveling with a long-term significant other. But even if you are, everyone likes to entertain the option of finding romance—or just getting some action, while traveling.
And some places are just, well, sexier than others! Blame it on the beach, or the foxy locals, or just the idea that you’re far from home, nobody knows you and there are no limits to who you can choose to be.
Check out our nominees below, and you’ll probably agree that they each possess their own aphrodisiac quality.
November 10, 2010 – UPDATE: Congratulations to Rio de Janeiro for winning the 2010 award for Sexiest Place on Earth. And let’s hear it for all our foxy nominees!
|
Barcelona This throbbing Spanish coastal city has been known as a hotspot that gets hearts pumping. Beaches, nightlife and Spaniards make for an enticing combo, si? |
|
Key West, FL Maybe it’s because you’re down at the tip of the continent. Or maybe it’s the rollicking bar scene and sexy resorts. Or maybe it’s the tropical, giddy climate. Or maybe it’s just Key West. Watch out! |
|
Las Vegas, NV Need we explain? This swank desert hotspot may have moved light years up and away from its “Sin City” rep, but you know you still get a certain tingle in a town so full of money, risk-taking and decadence. It’s the original home of “getting lucky!” Rowwrrrrrrr! |
|
Palm Springs, CA It’s 110 in the shade. Hot enough for you? |
|
Rio de Janeiro If any city could claim to have patented beachy sex appeal, it might just be Rio. Even the senior citizens here know how to rock a thong. The bodies are hot, the beaches are basically nightclubs with waves, and the anything-goes vibe is irresistible. If this unpredictable wonderland doesn’t get your pulse pounding, you may not have one. |
|
Tel Aviv, Israel A couple thousand years of religious and political strife still can’t dampen the pure heat that Israelis put out there. Is it the mandatory military thing? They’re all smokin’!!! |
So, which international sexy hotspot are you feeling?
