]]>The post Three Of The Best UK Islands To Explore appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Isle of Wight
This island is fairly close to the mainland, and the ferry from Portsmouth on the south coast of the UK takes less than half an hour, but the three-hundred-and-sixty-degree sea views make it feel like a tropical paradise. Explore the rugged coastline, relax on the sandy shores, and don’t forget to try some of the incredible local seafood on offer in most of the island’s cafes and eateries.
Isle of Man
This wind-swept isle is located between Ireland and the UK in the Irish Sea. Take the ferry from the city of Liverpool, and you will be transported to a simpler, older way of life. Whilst there is modern technology on the island, most of the architecture dates back to the past and many island inhabitants choose to carry on a traditional way of life. You will find plenty of hiking paths all over the island, and there are some beaches with safe swimming although checking tide times is advisable.
The Scilly Isles
This group of islands is found at the southern edge of the UK, and is popular for its warm, sunny climate. You can fly from regional airports such as Exeter, or take a day trip to the islands by boat from the southern coast of Cornwall. The Scilly Isles are all about relaxed glamor, so hire a yacht for the day, sample the local oysters, and take a tour of a local winery.
The islands around the UK offer fascinating climates and cultures to explore, so don’t forget to take a trip off the mainland if you’re visiting the UK.

]]>Crete
Crete is one of the larger islands, and therefore has loads to offer. You could easily fill a week-long stay and still have plenty to see, so it may be worth planning to stay a while here. Enjoy the stunning coastline, marvel at ancient ruins, and take in the charming towns which offer delicious (and relatively cheap) local food.
(@xrisana.del)Santorini
Perhaps the archetypal Greek island, Santorini is so well visited that you’re sure to find a ferry to the island that suits you and your schedule. Stay in a hostel or give yourself the luxury of your own hotel room, to really take in all that Santorini has to offer.
(@vivianoutdoors)Rhodes
Another of the larger Greek islands, Rhodes has its own airport so you can fly in and out of the island, onto your next destination. Expect to find beautiful sun-kissed olive groves, sandy beaches, and bustling market towns with plenty to buy as gifts for people back home.
Whether you’re a seasoned solo traveller, or it’s your first trip, travelling around the Greek islands is a great way to get into the spirit of your solo adventure.

Aruba
This Dutch island is located in the southern Caribbean just north of the South American country of Venezuela.

]]>The real name of Pig Island is Koh Madsum. The pigs that live here enjoy hanging out with people in shallow waters. You can play with them, give them snacks, take photos, and spend a fun day in their company.
Expect crowds at the sight as it’s constantly a bit busy, even now during the pandemic. You may have to wait for your turn to play with the pigs, but there are plenty of sunbeds for relaxing on the beach while you wait.
The pigs are used to hanging out with people and they are very friendly. They enjoy being fed and you can give them pig food that’s sold at the island café.

]]>The post Visit Victoria, British Columbia for a Very Speical Time appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>With much of the British colonization still present in the architecture, food, and beyond, Victoria is a truly beautiful city that everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime.
What to Do
Butchart Gardens is one of the most fascinating and stunning gardens you’ll probably ever see. Within them, there are five different gardens in different styles, so there is really enough wonder to mystify everyone. What’s even more wild about the gardens is that they somehow maintain their elegance and beauty even when they’re covered in snow, so going really still is a treat at any time of the year.
The Inner Harbor is a can’t-miss place when you’re in Victoria. The Inner Harbor is basically the hub for a lot of the cultural and political buildings in Victoria, but more importantly, it’s just a stunning harbor!
You’ll probably walk through it during the day, which you should, but the best thing is to come back at night when the Parliament building is all lit up, it really is a sight to be seen.
The Parliament of Victoria during the day is still really beautiful, and the inside of the building has many sculptures, beautiful architectural details, and gorgeous ceilings that are definitely worth looking at!
Hatley Castle is located inside the Hatley Park National Historic Site, and it is really magnificent. The castle was once a private home turned military college and is now open to the public! The residence was built over 100 years ago at the beginning of the 20th century, so if you love the grand turn of the century buildings, go to Hatley Castle.
One of the most interesting streets in Victoria is Lower Johnson Street, known to the locals as LoJo. This is probably the best shopping street in the city, with tons of local boutiques and artisan shops, but what’s most interesting is the buildings themselves. The whole street is extremely colorful since they’re all Victorian buildings, so you really feel transported to another time.
What to Eat
Since Canada is still a Commonwealth country, there are a lot of British influences in the food. One of the most prominent ones is fish and chips, especially since Victoria is on the island of Vancouver with lots of access to seafood. Arguably the best fish and chip restaurant in the city is called Red Fish Blue Fish. This restaurant looks right out onto the Inner Habor and the best thing is all the seafood is sustainably caught!
Fisherman’s Wharf is another place you have to go for all sorts of food and to see the floating homes in the marina. But, while you’re there, make sure you stop in at Jackson’s Ice Cream. All their flavors are made from a local dairy in Victoria, so you’re really getting a taste of the island!

]]>The post Providencia: The Island with a Sea of Seven Colors appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>Providencia is located about 500 miles north-west of mainland Colombia. It was one of England’s first colonies and today it’s simply a beautiful remote island where you can have the vacation of your dreams. It doesn’t get too many visitors but has a rich history and a unique cultural identity.
You can get to Providencia from the larger island of San Andrés located 30 miles south. The journey can get relatively expensive so there are never too many people boarding the ferry.
Around 5,000 people live in Providencia. Their language is English-based Creole. The island is safe and peaceful. The residents mostly live off of tourism and fishing. Many of them are into gardening, too.
There are big and small beaches on the island that you can enjoy based on your preference. Just make sure you’re not sitting under a palm tree because you don’t want a coconut hitting you! More commercial islands remove the coconuts but that’s not the case here.

]]>The post The Island of Tahiti is a True Paradise appeared first on Traveler Master.
]]>People love going to Tahiti because there are so many things to explore on the island that you could never see anywhere else, so if you want to go to a remote part of the world and be blown away, Tahiti is just right for you.
What to Do
Since Tahiti is an island, it’s obvious that there will be many beaches for you to enjoy. However, contrary to what you might think, seeing a white sandy beach on the island is super rare! If you want to see one of the best and only white-sand beaches, La Plage de Maui is the place to go.
The reason why it’s so difficult to find white-sand beaches on the island is that the island has 2 extinct volcanos, and when they were active, the lava that flowed from them and then cooled in the ocean turned to ash, creating black sand.
The majority of the beaches on Tahiti are beautiful and black, and one of the best ones to visit is Taharuu Beach, where you can safely swim and will have plenty of space to spread out.
#polynesie #frenchpolynesia #tahiti #taharuu #taharuubeach #sablenoirIn the capital of Papeete, there is much to do. But, one great way to see the authentic Tahitian culture at play is to visit the Papeete market. There you will find local artisans selling crafts, fruit and produce vendors that have items you might have never seen or heard of before, and more. This is a great place to get some souvenirs as well for friends and family back home.
If you’re seriously into hiking and camping, you have to visit Mount Aorai. This is the second tallest peak on the island, and while the trails are straightforward and not so difficult, it will take you about 2 full days to get to the top. The best times of the year to do the trek is anytime between June to September, and even though it’s a little bit of a commitment, once you get to the top, it’ll all be worth it.
There’s nothing like walking around a botanical garden, and the one in Tahiti is beyond anything you’ve ever seen. It’s next to the Gaugin Museum, which is another great place to visit! But the botanical garden is really something special because so many unique plants are able to grow in the tropical climate.
What to Eat
Eating in Tahiti is a real treat, especially for seafood lovers. The national dish is called poisson cru, which is basically a ceviche, but uses coconut milk along with citrus juice to create this lovely raw fish dish.
Poe is a traditional Tahitian dessert made from taro, a starchy root vegetable, cooked in coconut milk, and tastes almost like bread pudding! It’s very popular all over French Polynesia, but is made different in Tahiti.
