Pacific Harbour, located on the southern coast of Viti Levu in Fiji, is known as the country’s “Adventure Capital.” Once envisioned as a luxury resort community, it has evolved into a dynamic destination that blends tropical relaxation with outdoor excitement.
The land and seascapes of the north coast of County Antrim, Northern Ireland, are perhaps one of Europe's best kept secrets. Portrush has a beautiful position on Ramore Head peninsula jutting out into the Atlantic, with sandy beaches running east and west. The resort has the usual amenities of a seaside resort.
Prince William Sound and Resurrection Bay are premier ecosystems with a diversity of wildlife and habitat. Enclosed by high mountains and glaciers, and protected from the high seas by barrier islands, the area is a boater’s paradise. Fiords, bays, coves, lakes, glaciers, mountains and hundreds of islands provide a rich and unspoiled beauty.
Çeşme is a coastal town on Turkey’s western Aegean shore, located on a peninsula opposite the Greek island of Chios. Its name means “fountain,” reflecting the numerous historic springs and fountains found around the town. Çeşme combines a busy marina and waterfront with sandy beaches, wind-swept headlands, and villages surrounded by vineyards and olive groves.
Ankara, the capital of Turkey, sits on the Anatolian plateau and reflects the country’s layered history more quietly than Istanbul, yet with equal depth. Once an important settlement for the Hittites, Phrygians, Romans, and Byzantines, Ankara rose to national prominence in the 20th century when Mustafa Kemal Atatürk chose it as the heart of the modern Turkish Republic. Today, it functions as Turkey’s political center while preserving traces of its ancient and Ottoman past.
