Jemaa el-Fna, the vibrant epicentre of Marrakesh's medina, is a riot of colours, sounds and scents, especially at sunset. Though the square has transitioned from its roots as a daily food market for mountain traders, its hustle and energy remain palpable. During the day, vendors offer refreshing fruit juices, but it's at dusk when the place truly transforms. Street theatre, or 'halqa,' has been a mainstay here since the 11th century, and the tradition continues in modern times. As the sun dips below the horizon, food stalls magically unfold, adding tantalising aromas to the air. Musicians tune their instruments, snake charmers enchant both serpents and tourists, and the spectacle crescendos into a nightly celebration of Marrakeshi life and culture.

The island's north holds one of its most scenic spots at the le Maido summit, where stunning views over Reunion's west coast unfold before the eyes of enthralled visitors. To avoid madding crowds and possible weather changes, head to the summit early in the morning on a clear day.

Kronoskogen, a forested area between Ängelholm and Skälderviken, features a diverse array of pine, birch, and other trees, creating a natural shield against sea winds and sand. The western part, Ängelholm's coastal forest, is a designated nature reserve. Explore its marked hiking trails that range from 2.8 to 10 km and connect with the Skåneleden trail. Enjoy fishing or paddling in Rönne å, and find well-prepared rest areas. The area's diverse flora and fauna, including rare species like Goodyera repens orchid (Knärot) and Alpine enchanter's-nightshade (Dvärghäxört), add to its charm.

A fascinating adventure through the island's past via the over 900 plant species contained in this well-maintained botanical garden awaits visitors to the domaine du Café Grillé, where the journey starts at a modern creole garden and ends at a lush forest containing indigenous plants.
