You’re sitting on the sand in Bavaro Beach. A Barcelo in your hand. Palm trees straight out of a beer commercial. There’s a little merengue in the background. This is why people fall in love with Punta Cana: it’s the simple, wonderful formula for a classic beach vacation. That’s why it’s also been such a popular destination for European travelers, who have long made Punta Cana one of their preferred escapes from continental winters. And it’s about to get even simpler.

There’s pristine, and then there’s Acklins. This remote island in The Bahamas is one of the most beautiful places in the region — and one that remains far off the map of travelers, with stunning flats, beaches and world-class bonefishing. I’m on a flats boat, gliding through shallow sandbars and breathtaking aquamarine hues. There’s no one out here. Nothing out here but the bonefish and the birds. It’s one of the most striking landscapes I’ve ever seen.

It’s small, intimate, as much as library as a bar. The shelves are filled with rare bottling of the Caribbean’s greatest rums. There’s a walk-in humidor around the corner. A small bar counter. Beautiful leather chairs. If you dreamed up a rum bar in the depths of your imagination, it would look exactly like this.

You get here on a very small bridge. It’s a short crossing on Queen’s Highway from Great Exuma, and when you arrive you feel it immediately. You know. It’s all yours. No crowds, no bustle. Even compared to Great Exuma, this place is quiet. And it’s spectacular. This is Little Exuma, sister to Great Exuma in The Bahamas, a beach-filled paradise where everything just seems to slow down.

Interesting on SNY about Hefner’s working with Soto’s throwing arm. But maybe let’s pump the breaks on it. Even small changes can make a big impact on a complex system. Who knows how strength changes etc in his arm could impact his hitting. Just food for thought. @StevenACohen2
