READERS' TRAVEL AWARDS 2002

You love the sun and lots of it. But while Barbados and Cyprus have the best climate (95.89 and 94.22 respectively), the Indian Ocean atolls of Maldives win overall for the second time and with 91.40 for safety they all but guarantee peace of mind in paradise. Seychelles has the most beautiful beaches (95.12), Hawaii has the greatest scenery (97.65) and variety of attractions (83.92), and Bali the best range of accommodation (92.90); but for food/restaurants, Hong Kong whets your appetite like no other (91.73).
