Calpe, also known as Calp, is a popular resort on Spain’s Costa Blanca. The town is a nice vacation spot for outdoor activities like cycling, hiking, and rock climbing during the relatively mild winters, and the warm summers make for the ideal beach vacation.⁠

⁠Calpe’s history began in the Valencian Bronze Age, roughly 1,500 BC. Romans established the first town later, directly below the Calpe rock. Today, tourists can still visit archeological sites like Baos de la Reina. Additionally, it is believed that the Romans once used the Salt Lake, home to the famous Calpe flamingos, as a salt extraction facility.⁠

Siargao, also referred to as the “Surfing Capital of the Philippines,” is famous for popularizing surfing in the nation. Siargao is accessible for other activities besides surfing, like rock climbing and cave exploration. ⁠

⁠

The main attraction on the island is surfing, and with good reason. There are more than a dozen surf spots with names where the waves are always pumping. Go to the Cloud 9 platform even if you don’t surf to watch the pros. ⁠

⁠

The tiny, uninhabited island of Guyam is reached after a brief boat ride from Siargao Island. Your personal paradise for the day will be this uninhabited island. You can walk all the way around it in just a few minutes, and while doing so, you’ll be surrounded by swaying palm trees and glistening water—a picture-perfect scene that almost seems unreal.⁠

Brazilians have rediscover Maceió as a vacation destination, and domestic tourism has boomed in recent years, despite the city still not being widely known to foreign tourists, at least not yet. The city is much less hectic than other larger cities and has a small but vibrant dining and drinking scene. It also serves as a gateway to some incredibly idyllic shorelines to the north and south.⁠

The tallest dunes in North America are found in Great Sand Dunes National Park, which is tucked away in southern Colorado and contrasts the untamed Sangre de Cristo Mountains with over 750-foot-tall dunes.⁠

⁠

The wind-shaped dunes shine against the untamed mountain backdrop. In 1932, this geological wonderland—which spans over 30 square miles of enormous dunes—became a national monument. Since the Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve Act was passed, additional resources have been added, such as alpine lakes and tundra, six peaks that are higher than 13,000 feet, old-growth spruce and pine forests, sizable stands of aspen and cottonwood, grasslands, and wetlands—all of which provide habitat for a variety of animal and plant species.⁠

The Inn opened its doors in 1896, and at the time, newspapers referred to it as “The Hub of Society.” The Inn, with its numerous events, served as the focal point of Okoboji’s social life from the Saturday night dances to the Sunday orchestral concerts. To Lake Life Society, the Inn was essential.⁠

⁠

Over 120 years of entertaining visitors at the storied resort left a long-lasting impression on both locals and visitors. Even though the original resort is no longer there, the memories of the lavish balls, concerts, and family get-togethers that took place there along Lake Okoboji’s shore will last a lifetime.⁠

Possibly the most picturesque train ride in the world is the well-known “Jacobite Express.“⁠

⁠

Since 1984, The Jacobite steam train has been running every summer under various names and with various operators. It is also referred to as the “Harry Potter Steam Train” and the “Jacobean Train.” It is extremely popular with tourists and spans a portion of Scotland’s West Highland line. It effortlessly combines storied Scottish folklore, opulent travel, and breathtaking scenery.⁠

⁠

The Harry Potter movies may be the reason most people are familiar with the Glenfinnan Viaduct, and the Hogwart’s Express is just another name for the same route.⁠
