Product Description

Now this is getting away from it all. Islands is the gift of instant relaxation in this, a tranquil year of scenic island retreats. Exquisitely photographed in full color are pristine tropical escapes, like Whitsunday Island and its brilliant white sand of pure quartz. Mediterranean wonders, including the cliffs of Santorini and the golden shores of Majorca. Plus a dramatic Nantucket sunset, the rice fields of Bali, and New Zealand's Milford Sound—acclaimed by Rudyard Kipling as the "eighth wonder of the world." One glance, and you're there.

Customer Reviews

If you only own one calendar...
If you only own one calendar, Islands is absolutely a wonderful choice. I have been buying this calendar since 2006 (or so), usually in multiple copies to give to family and friends. Although an island, beach, or ocean scene is NOT the topic of each photo (there are boats and villas and other scenes), the quality is superb and the simply process of flipping to the next photo each day is rewarding. If you dream of travel (like those of us with a modest income), this calendar certainly will inspire you.

Love it!
I've used this style of calendar for two years and it's awesome sitting on my desk! I get to see a beautiful new picture every day - great quality all the way around. You won't be disappointed!!

Wonderful calendars, buy them every year
I first got one of these calendars a few years ago at my local membership wholesale club. They don't carry them there anymore, but amazon of course has everything practically. These are the best calendars. It is very relaxing each day to see a new beautiful island scene, a few of which I recognize from my own travels.
