LAVEZZI ISLANDS OFF CORSICA
The Maddalena Islands get extremely crowded in summer. The solution is the
Lavezzi Islands just off the south coast of Corsica where you can snorkel, scuba
and dine on the aft deck with sensational views. Cruise over to tiny Cavallo
opposite Bonifacio to dine at Hôtel des Pêcheurs.
DUGI OTOK – CROATIA
Located in the middle of Croatia’s extraordinary coastline Dugi Otok has an
utterly bizarre landscape. Tiny islets are set within the horseshoe-shaped bays of
bigger islands full of lakes. Anchor beneath 200 metre cliffs with superb caves for
scuba diving or submarine adventures. Look out for peregrine falcons, breathe in
the scent of toasted lavender, pine and fennel. It is a sensory overload.
ALASKA
Cruise between Juneau and Ketchikan taking in the monumental Mendenhall ice
caves, Tracy Arm glacier and Misty fjords. June and July are the best months.
See grizzlies dining on salmon, humpbacks breaching with joy, eagles swooping
with bravado. Biking, fishing, kayaking, heli-skiing, zip-lining or just sitting in the
Jacuzzi watching icebergs float past. Did someone mention action-packed?
