Monte Toro is Menorca’s highest point, with a simply breath taking view. On a very clear day, you may even catch a glimpse of Mallorca. Take a picnic or enjoy coffee or lunch at the cafe at the top.

St Jean Beach stretches nearly a mile along St Barts' northern coast. It is both the island's longest and most popular beach. Its crescent shape splits naturally at the Eden Rock peninsula, creating two distinct zones. The eastern side is favoured by families and snorkellers, who take advantage of the calm waters of the eponymous bay. The western stretch attracts windsurfers, zooming around carried by the open swells. It’s also where you’ll find Nikki Beach — St Barts’ hottest party spot. St Jean is located right next to the island’s airport, where small planes fly low overhead, adding a dynamic element to the scenery without disrupting the beach’s appeal. Luxury hotels, including the iconic Eden Rock, line the shore, providing upscale amenities just steps from the sand.

The Cook Islands Christian Church in Avarua is a striking old building crafted from white coral, originally erected in 1853. It's well worth a visit, particularly for its intriguing graveyard. In front of the church, you’ll find a monument dedicated to Papeiha, a Polynesian missionary, and the grave of Albert Henry, the first Prime Minister of the independent Cook Islands, complete with a life-size bust.
