10. Dublin, Ireland

Originally a Viking city, Dublin isn’t short of hardy fellas to carry your sack of potatoes. Rugged, stubbled and mischievous, a cheeky Irish lad could be great fun to share a pint of Guinness. But brawn aside, they’re renowned for their sensitive side too. Just think about crooning Dublin boy band, Boyzone. And they ain’t too hard on the eyes either – yes, Colin Farrell, we’re talking about you.

Irish hottie Colin Farrell is the quintessential, swoon-inducing bad boy.

9. Seoul, South Korea

Korean food, K-pop (Korean pop music) and K-drama (Korean television dramas) have taken the world by storm in recent years, catalyzing an appropriate fascination with the male stars of the genres. South Korean actor, Kwon Sang-woo, is one such hottie whose good looks and chiseled abs have not gone unnoticed. Part of the mom-zzang (slang for great body) movement, a spot of Googling will yield a good few shirtless pictures of this hunky star.

Kwon Sang-woo’s boyish good looks and rocking body are a winning combination.

8. Cannes, France

Holiday home to the rich and famous, you’ll see plenty of TV-worthy bodies strolling down the city’s famous Promenade de la Croisette. Countless international celebs take to Cannes for their holidays to soak up the sun’s rays on impressive yachts. And the locals aren’t too bad either. Whatever the reason – be it the glitz and glamour of the celebrity imports, or Cannes’ ample annual sunshine – the locals more than compete with their superstar visitors in the hotness stakes.

Speaking of hot visitors, Brad Pitt is a regular at the Cannes Film Festival.

7. Quezon City, Philippines

Pristine beaches and sparkling waters make up this sprawling Asian archipelago. Picture-perfect islands numbering in the thousands draw in hoards of holidaymakers to the Philippines each year for fun in the sun. And with weather this hot it should come as little surprise that the men of Philippines have some head-turning beach bodies to match. Their reputed romantic side and gloriously tanned skin doesn’t hurt either. Just check out much-loved Filipino actor Dingdong Dantes.

6. Freetown, Sierra Leone

The largest city in Sierra Leone, Freetown is home to hunky Mr. Africa International 2012 winner, Adonis O’Holi. Posed for his competition snaps with oiled up muscles that would make The Rock shake in his army boots, you can certainly see how he nabbed the title. And you know what they say: once you go to Freetown, you never go back. Or something like that.

Well, it certainly seems that Adonis is an apt moniker. Photo credit Mrs Hustle.

5. San Juan, Puerto Rico

Located in the north east of the Caribbean, San Juan, Puerto Rico is part of the tropical archipelago that includes Cuba, Hispaniola and Jamaica. The men of Puerto Rico are famed for their tanned skin, dark eyes and passionate bedroom antics. And as San Juan’s’s a historical port town, visitors can find countless sightseeing tours to fill their days. But if you’d prefer a more personal tour, you could always get a local Puerto Rican to show you around. (We’d like to extend a special welcome to the readers of Rico Puerto Rico.)

4. Miami, United States

What’s not to like about Miami? There’s sun, sea, sand and, oh yes, super-hot guys. It’s also a land of fancy hotels, flash cars and a dash of crime – providing ample material for the ever-popular television show, CSI Miami. Whilst vanity may not be the key to happiness, it certainly makes for some very good-looking men. You’ll find these toned and tanned male specimens at all good Miami beaches, tanning salons and mirrors.

Just think, that could be you frolicking on the beach with a Miami hunk.

3. Istanbul, Turkey

Steeped in culture, this historical city gets a lot of architectural tourism, as visitors can feast their eyes upon archaeological ruins, the Grand Bazaar, and, of course, the Hagia Sophia. But don’t forget the human eye candy too – the other Turkish delight. Although Turks are typically hazel eyed with dark hair, those from the north can also have much lighter features. Men from Istanbul generally fall into the former category, and if you need any convincing as to whether that’s a winning formula, just take a look at smoldering Istanbulite model, Mehmet Akif Alakurt.

Mehmet Akif Alakurt is a very successful Turkish male model, and with a mug like that, it’s easy to see why.

2. Madrid, Spain

Home to bullfighters, flamenco and Real Madrid CF, Spain’s capital city has a lot to offer in the way of culture. And smooth, suave and very sexy, the men are nothing to scoff at either. Just take Enrique Iglesias as an example. Having been called the “King of Latin Pop” and the “King of Dance,” he has also won the “Sexiest Singer Alive” award numerous times. And although he’s engaged to Anna Kournikova, Enrique can be our hero any day.

1. Havana, Cuba

Talk about tall, dark and handsome: Cuban men cover all bases. With golden skin, dark eyes and a rich, exotic accent, these Latin lovers are number one on our list. And what’s more, this beautiful Caribbean island just happens to be one of the world’s top vacation spots too. Famous for its beaches and rum-based cocktails, Havana could be the perfect spot for a steamy holiday romance. Our apologies to the American ladies who will have to give this island a miss, but at least there’s always Puerto Rico.
