Drepano Beach is a long, pebbly shore on the Gulf of Corinth, known for its clear waters and a calm, relaxed atmosphere. Its consistent winds make it a popular spot for windsurfing and kitesurfing, with several nearby schools offering lessons and equipment. You can rent a sunbed at one of the organised beach bars or find a quieter stretch for yourself. To make a day of it, explore the sandbar to the west with the Drepano Lighthouse at its base, visit the adjacent Calma Waterpark, or simply enjoy the food and drink at the waterfront venues.

From a former transmission tower standing at a height of 92 metres, the futuristic Faro de Moncloa provides a breathtaking panoramic view of Madrid. On a clear day, you can observe the city's most notable landmarks and sights, and even catch a glimpse up to a hundred kilometres away. However, be advised that the tower may be closed during bad weather conditions.

There are multiple local companies offering scooter tours of the Vietnam capital. These tours range greatly in thematic focus (street food to historic landmarks) and duration, and depend on the individual provider, but details can often be agreed upon on an individual basis. On these tours, an individual driver is normally assigned to each visitor, who then hops on the back of the scooter as a passenger. Helmets should normally be provided. One motorbike tour of Ho Chi Minh personally tested out by the editor is Non-profit Student Tour, an incredible initiative that works surprisingly well. The coordinator links up tourists with available local student volunteers, allowing the students to practice their English and bringing overseas visitors into contact with locals. Each traveller is assigned an individual driver (this even works with larger groups). Drop them a WhatsApp message to arrange the date and time.
