“Octopus” Aquapark was built in 2008 and is part of the Municipal Sports Center, which also owns the nearby modern sports hall. The modernist construction of the aquapark building matches in its style the nearby Cultural Center and Public Library. “Octopus” offers not only aquatic attractions, but also bowling, a restaurant and a modernly appointed conference hall.

Eketorp fortress is a completely excavated and reconstructed ancient fort, where the reconstructions have been carried out directly on the archaeological remains. The ring wall stands five metres high and six metres wide, and within it lie Iron Age stone houses and medieval timber-framed buildings, all reconstructed using traditional craftsmanship techniques and materials.

Originally named "City Park" and later renamed after the Spanish explorer Vasco Núñez de Balboa, Balboa Park is the largest urban cultural park in the United States and the beating heart of San Diego's cultural scene. Spanning 1,200 scenic acres, the park overlooks downtown San Diego and houses an impressive collection of museums, theaters, stunning gardens, and the world-renowned San Diego Zoo. This diverse range of attractions makes Balboa Park an essential stop during any visit to San Diego.

The onyx black sand of Reynisfjara is formed from volcanic activity in Iceland: when lava collides with the ocean, it rapidly cools and shatters into small fragments of basalt. With its enormous basalt stacks (features in Game of Thrones and once believed to be petrified trolls), roaring Atlantic waves and stunning vistas, Reynisfjara is widely considered to be the most beautiful example of Iceland’s black sand beaches. The sea stacks along the shore are home to thousands of nesting seabirds like puffins, fulmars and guillemots — a must-see for birdwatchers. A visit to Reynisfjara is included in most tours of southern Iceland. Driving here is a good option, too, since it's only about 180 km from Reykjavík.
