Around the pool, gatherings take on a celebratory energy: a reception dinner lined with striped umbrellas, an after-party that shifts from black-tie to bikini, a birthday weekend where everyone rotates between swims and slices of pineapple. Families scatter into their own poolside rituals; one with a paperback, another calling "Marco Polo", and friends returning again and again to the water as the unofficial headquarters of the trip.
The season’s final call for sunscreen comes with an invitation: gather the friends, stake out the loungers, and let the pool do the entertaining. From the salt-air glamour of Gurney’s Montauk to Aperol-hued afternoons at Soho Farmhouse Ibiza, these 33 pools remind us that summer’s best chapters unfold in chlorine and salt, in meals carried outdoors (or burgers nabbed from the pool bar), and in the ecstasy of not checking the time until the sun has finally clocked out. So sit back, recline your chaise, and bookmark this roundup as your global directory to the world’s most sought-after pools.
Travel

Whether you’re the type of traveler who loves exploring historic monuments and medieval villages or the type of traveler who’d rather spend your days chasing waterfalls and hiking through canyons, there’s a little something for everyone to do during a trip to Portugal. Head north to enjoy food and wine or head central to see the mountains. If you’re more of an urban explorer, Porto and Lisbon offer amazing art scenes and nightlife. Or if you’re all about the beaches, Lagos might be the best spot for you.
The Mediterranean climate makes the off-season a really good time to travel, as you’ll find everything to be just a little less crowded. But if you’re only able to get to this part of the world in the summer, you’ll still enjoy peace and quiet in the hinterland and less populous islands. And while Porto and Lisbon may be well known travel destinations, the islands and hinterland regions of Portugal offer some of the country’s most stunning landscapes. Ready to start planning a trip? Let’s get started!
