The island of mystery, where its stone giants are vestiges of a lost civilization.

Rab Island, Croatia

Facing the Adriatic Sea, its main city displays its medieval charm. Towers, narrow cobblestone streets... A journey back in time.

Holbox, Mexico

North of the Yucatan Peninsula. A perfect refuge to forget everything and enjoy its perfect sand and warm water.

One of the most beautiful islands in the Hawaiian archipelago. It has immense green mountains, abundant water everywhere, and the sea, that sea of intense color.

A Scottish island with stunning landscapes, medieval castles, and fishing villages that maintain their authenticity.

A tiny Thai island with enormous charm and fascinating colours.

 

Zanzibar, Tanzania

This island was a very important port for trade routes between Europe, Africa, and Asia. It was also the center of the vile slave trade. And now it is a place open to tourism, with the sea drawing beautiful sunsets.

It is considered the cradle of Japanese civilization and of very special beauty.

This place contains as much beauty in its beaches as in the ancient towns and cities that lean out from the top of its mountains.

Madagascar

An immense reserve in which there is fauna and flora that can only be found in this corner of the planet.

Patmos, Greece

The most beautiful of the Greek islands? Even better than Santorini or Miconos? It is difficult to make such a resounding judgment. But Patmos, just a few miles from the Turkish coast, has an authenticity that other islands have lost.

Koh Tao, Tailand

These hypnotically colored waters and beaches are in many cases only accessible by sea or by difficult paths. A display of magic in the South China Sea.

Formentera, Spain

Just a few miles from Ibiza, this is a tiny island with the simple beauty of the Mediterranean. Out of season, it is especially magical.

Upolu Island, Samoa

The southern seas, the palm trees, and the whole universe that literature and cinema turned into territory for the adventures of pirates and other (anti)heroes: the Samoan archipelago. Upolu Island is the place where Robert Louis Stevenson, author of 'Treasure Island', was buried.

Margarita, Venezuela

Purely Caribbean. An island whose charms resist tourism and whose beaches are among the most beautiful on the planet.

Prince Edward Island, Canada

To the north of the Nova Scotia peninsula, this is a privileged place as far as nature is concerned.

Martha's Vineyard, USA

A very exclusive island on the east coast of the United States, south of Cape Cod, where white wooden houses are a haven for the rich and famous.

Anglesey Island, United Kingdom

On the Welsh coast, there is an island of druids, mist, and spells. With the tempestuous sea whipping its beaches.

Tahiti, French Polynesia

The charm of the southern seas, the transparent waters, and the light that inspired Gauguin: all make this a haven of peace.

Menorca, Spain

The second-largest Balearic island off the coast of Spain, less known than its big sister Mallorca. With prehistoric monuments and a mysterious, Mediterranean culture.

Sol Island, Bolivia

In the middle of Lake Titicaca is the island of the Sun, where the Incas performed sacred rituals. Numerous mythical sites remain in this 4-kilometres-high piece of land in the mountain lake.

Komandoo, Maldives

Choosing one favourite island in the Maldives archipelago? Impossible. Let's say Komandoo but any point in this destination is like landing on a fantasy island.

Shikoku, Japan

Many pilgrims make their way to this island for its Buddhist temples. A spiritual place.

Skelling Island, Ireland

Just a set of rocks in the Kerry County Sea. The island used to be a spiritual retreat and has a paleochristian monastery. After it was abandoned, the island remained uninhabited for centuries. Even the lighthouse keepers barely lived there.

Praslin, Seychelles

Seychelles is a paradise dreamed of by people all over the world. An archipelago in the Indian Ocean where each island is a prodigy. Travelers recommend the island of Praslin but any of the others is an equally beautiful destination.

The Greek island, to which Leonard Cohen escaped in his youth, still conserves a certain hippie air. The donkeys are also an inseparable part of the landscape. For those who seek authenticity.

Kvarken, Finland

An archipelago with fascinating landscapes, rocks and water, and intense colours.

A romantic destination but also great for adventurists and nature lovers. It hides rarities of fauna and flora that are not found anywhere else on the planet.

Go inside the Arctic Circle and discover another universe. That is what a trip to Lofoten will do for you.
