A local point of view.
A Peninsula worth knowing.
Where in the Peninsula is PI?
She’s out again.
Case 02: Took the long way to dinner. Ask the locals, read the land, find her before sunset. Find her and go in the draw for $250 to dine at Doot Doot Doot, Jackalope.
Free to play, no account.
Eight-page editorial guides - venues, walks, and a sample weekend, shaped for the time of year. Print one for the glove box, keep one in the kitchen drawer, forward one to the friend who is asking what to do.
Winter
Cellar doors with fires lit, hot springs steaming, and the back-bay walks that win when the bay is grey. Eight pages, six venues, one sample weekend.
Autumn
Vintage running on the ridge, warm Saturdays at the markets, the season the Peninsula is at its most editorial. Eight pages, six venues, one sample weekend.
Spring
Ridge afternoons soft with new growth, market season opening on the bay, and the weeks before the summer crowds arrive - the underrated Peninsula.
Summer
Bay swims at 7 am, long lunches with the doors open, rooms above the water at the tip - the Peninsula at its loudest and most loved.
Easter long-weekend
Four days, the vintage on the ridge, the markets at full programme, the season tipping. The four-day pacing the rest of the year doesn't allow.
Spring and Summer guides land before the season they're named after. The Easter long-weekend special drops a fortnight ahead.
