Summer Colonies are those famous resorts, whether seaside, lakeside or mountainous, that are and/or have traditionally been the choice destinations for the Upper Classes and celebrities. Here we have compiled a list of the most iconic resorts visited by the smart and proper.
Summer Colonies are those towns and seaside resorts that are popular destination choices of the Upper and Upper Middle Classes and, in more recent times, have come to be associated to some degree with the rich and famous. Typically these towns are popular choices for second homes and see their populations swell in summer months (and, in many cases, winter months too for those escaping the cooler climes further north). Particularly, the term "Summer Colony" is more widely used in North America, owing to the fact that wealthier families tended to escape their city residences when the temperatures and humidity rose, opting instead to summer elsewhere whereas European families tended to have their permanent home outside of the city and might come to the city in summer for The Season.
Typically, many of these towns are located along the coast and are popular seaside resorts or sailing destinations. Many are also located in mountainous or forested regions where the cooler temperatures offered a welcome relief from the hot and humid cities, whilst also allowing visitors and residents to avail of a multitude of outdoors activities. Also, a significant number of Summer Colonies began as Spa Towns and have retained their charm and attractiveness to this day, even if the spa is less appealing to modern tastes.
Furthermore, many of these locations are increasingly inhabited by permanent residents rather than the seasonal or weekend visitors of times gone past - especially those places that are relatively close in proximity to big towns and cities. In some cases such locations are finding themselves becoming popular choices for second homes for wealthy oligarchs, celebrities and business titans who may spend much of their time travelling and spending only brief periods of the year at such homes.
Below is a list of the better known Summer Colonies around the world - some of which have an association with Old Money and some of which are very much associated with celebrities and New Money. Where the towns are part of a wider and better known region they have been grouped together accordingly, however the region may be considered a Summer Colony in and of it's own right. It is further worth noting that there are other towns in some of these regions that have become famous resorts in their own right but that have not been included here as they may not have the same status or clientele and thus would not constitute a Summer Colony in this respect.
This list is not a comprehensive list and is intended simply as a guide.
