This masterpiece of Italian Gothic architecture is most famous for what it’s missing—a roof. The abbey was built in the late 1100s and has been a dramatic-looking ruin for centuries. It’s open to the sky now, but still feels grand in a stripped-back kind of way. Just up the hill, the Rotonda di Montesiepi is worth a quick stop too—inside you’ll find a sword embedded in stone, tied to the story of Saint Galgano.

Are you in the mood for a family fun day? Then pay a visit to Aquavallon Aquatic Centre, where visitors can splash around the different swimming pools, go on the water slide, play water games and, finally, relax in the Jacuzzi or the sauna.

Standing proudly as Florida’s tallest lighthouse, the Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse is a beacon of history and maritime heritage. Built in 1887, it’s one of the best-preserved lighthouses in the U.S. Visitors can climb the 203 steps to the top for sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean, Intracoastal Waterway, and surrounding area. The museum, located in the restored keepers’ dwellings, showcases artifacts, exhibits, and stories from the lighthouse’s history. It’s a fascinating glimpse into the lives of the lightkeepers and the role of the lighthouse in guiding sailors through the treacherous waters of the Florida coast.

Another idyllic Corsican village located on Cap Corse, just north of Bastia, Erbalunga was once an important fishing port. Today it is more of a lazy seaside town, with a relaxed pace and easygoing inhabitants. The town's beautiful houses are grouped together on a tiny rocky peninsula, crowned by an old Genoese tower.
