Time to hit the beaches as the weather gets warmer and you are a regular at the gym, thanks to your new year’s resolution to get fit. Whether you want an overseas va- cation or choose to stay put — don’t moan about the lack of great beaches we have here in Singapore.
You’d be surprised at some of the gorgeous coastlines we have. At hotels.com (https://sg.hotels.com/go/singapore/singapore-beaches) they have identified seven great beaches in Singapore and they are Siloso Beach, Tanjong Beach, Changi Beach, Palawan Beach, Punggol Beach, St. John’s Island and Lazarus Island.
All you need is a cocktail, sunblock, hat and these Hermès must-haves — and you are beach-ready.
Beach towel in cotton terry cloth
Thalassa, goddess of the sea in Greek mythology, is the inspiration behind this tangle of barques and boats created in 1973 by illustrator Pierre Péron. Today, the design is reissued, flat-frame printed on a beach mat in cotton canvas and hand-embroidered on a beach bag.
The motifs decorating this beach towel are made according to the traditional “tie and dye” technique: White fabric is knotted then dipped in a colour bath. Once untied, it shows large uneven circles.
