  2. Formentera, Spain: No foam parties allowed
  3. Stockholm, Sweden: Land of Viking nurses

  1. Montauk, NY: The non-Hamptons of Long Island
  2. Libyan coast: From Tripoli's charm to Leptis Magna's majesty
  3. Pantelleria, Spain: Favorite of the fashion elite
  4. West Country, England: Not-too-trendy coastal getaway for jaded Londoners
  5. Ojai, Calif.: Mountain-cradled historical escape for those actor types
  6. Mykonos, Greece: Ouzo-soaked fashion center
  7. St. Tropez, France: Still cool
