Beach Insider: South Walton, Florida

Gulf Coast Paradise

Miami Beach may get all the hype, but true Beach Insiders know that the powdery, whitesand beaches that hug the Florida Gulf are among the most beautiful in the world. Head to South Walton to discover a treasure trove of Gulf Coast beaches, each with its own local vibe. From the free-spirited, artsy charm of Grayton Beach to the manicured, picket-fenced community of Seaside, South Walton offers a slice of paradise for every travel mood.

Scenes from an unforgettable trip to Jalisco, where we wandered the historic streets of Guadalajara, adventured into the heart of the Mexican Highlands to visit the birthplace of tequila, and immersed ourselves in the delicious flavors of the Jalisco interior.

There are lots of reasons to revisit the newly reopened waldorfnyc (which was closed for a top-to-bottom renovation for the past eight years), but a seat at the original Peacock Alley bar may be what gets us to book our reservation. The iconic cocktail lounge, once a favorite of Frank Sinatra, Elisabeth Taylor, and Cole Porter, is back and more glamorous than ever. Meet you there for a drink?
