Right at the base of the Alcazaba, this is Malaga’s oldest surviving structure — built in the 1st century BC during the reign of Emperor Augustus. It was in use for a few hundred years, then mostly forgotten. When the Moors arrived, they used stones from the theatre to help build the Alcazaba above it. For centuries, it was completely buried. It wasn’t rediscovered until the 1950s, when construction workers stumbled on it by accident. These days, it’s been partly restored and open to the public. You can walk around the site and even catch the occasional open-air performance in summer.

Not far from Naples, the beautiful town of Amalfi is the perfect spot for a one-day excursion: it boasts a stunning seaside and a surprisingly rich history — it used to hold huge maritime power in the Middle Ages — which has left interesting sights such as the St Andrew Cathedral with its scenic staircase. To explore it fully, consider booking a guided tour.

Delray Beach is a thriving, trendy beach town. Atlantic Avenue in downtown sets the pace for events, dining, small shops and the beach.

Rönneviks Miniature Golf is a rather standard course, but what makes it exceptionally great is its location right next to the Hembygdspark. As you play, you can have a look at the animals, take the kids to the playground, or simply enjoy a stroll after playing. Ice cream and drinks are sold here, too.
