The series kicked off in 1989, featuring more than two dozen Playmates in an "extravaganza of mini-bikinis and less," set against lush backdrops ranging from Jamaica to Tahiti. While the first volume is considered a bit dated and somewhat tame, it sets the tone for the entire series, celebrating the female form in a natural, aquatic setting. The scenes include segments like "Pirates," "Beach Bunnies," and "Rub-A-Dub," featuring Playmates like Rebekka Armstrong, Katherine Hushaw, and Luann Lee.
