Very beautiful and deserted volcanic beach. It is unlikely that you can swim here, the beach is not visited for that. It is better to visit during low tide, when the water goes away and the rocks are exposed read more...
A rather unusual place in Corfu. It was once a beautiful old village that was destroyed by an earthquake in 1953. In the 1970s, the Boua family rebuilt the village with the aim of organizing a theme park. No one in Corfu or Greece had ever done this before and it was a unique experience. The locals also call this place Bouas Village read more...

In the 20th century, Count Torralvo (1910–1936) invested significant funds in the restoration of the castle. Thanks to this, the castle is currently in excellent condition read more...

One of the most atmospheric cities in Spain, which we had wanted to visit for a long time, although it was not so easy, as the city is located almost in the furthest corner from all the main Spanish tourist trails and far from all the coasts.
The historic centre is incredibly well preserved, despite being quite large. It's easy to feel like you're in the Middle Ages, especially if you walk through the streets early in the morning, before the tourists arrive. The old town has preserved unique examples of Moorish, Roman, Gothic and Renaissance architecture read more...
Tourists in Fuerteventura go to see the dunes in Corralejo National Park. However, there is another place that is much more interesting and less accessible, the El Jable dunes. It is not accessible by public transport, and it is not easy to get here by private vehicle either, although we have seen a few off-road tours read more...

This place might be interesting if you have watched the popular British TV series "The Durrells". Although, you can walk here just for fun. We parked at the big Atlantica Nissaki Beach Hotel (39.732028, 19.920111), walked through its territory and came to the path along the sea (39.731500, 19.922083).
