Set on the banks of the River Foyle in Northern Ireland, Derry (officially Londonderry) is one of Europe's best-preserved walled cities. The Bogside murals and Free Derry Corner stand as records of The Troubles, and the "Hands Across the Divide" monument marks the city's hard-won steps towards peace. Named UK City of Culture in 2013, Derry has earned a reputation for great food, live music and a thriving arts scene. The rugged Causeway Coast, a UNESCO-listed stretch of dramatic basalt columns, is just a short drive away.

As well as being a very popular destination for sun worshippers with a love for cocktails and clubbing, this Balearic jewel has a long and rich history, breathtaking landscapes, and an irresistible charm.

In 1831, Charles Darwin sailed to South America aboard the H.M.S. Beagle. On the return voyage across the Pacific, the vessel stopped on a small group of islands far off the Ecuadorian coast, changing the course of human scientific endeavour and self-understanding forever. Fascinated by the unique wildlife on the islands, Darwin collected biological specimens and studied them over the next 30 years. His findings led to the formulation of the scientific theory of evolution by natural selection. This small group of islands and their one-of-a-kind wildlife are to thank for one of humanity's most remarkable discoveries. And today, almost 200 years later, they remain a source of endless fascination and a favourite travel destination for scientists, nature and wildlife enthusiasts, scuba divers, and anyone interested in the wonders of the natural world.
