Elbow Beach is a long, gently curving stretch of pale pink sand on Bermuda’s South Shore in Paget Parish, close to Hamilton. The beach takes its name from its distinctive bend, which resembles an elbow when viewed from the water. Protective coral reefs offshore help create relatively calm conditions, making the beach suitable for swimming and body surfing.
Kekova is an island an hour from Dalyanagzi by sea as well as the name of a whole ensemble of picturesque islands, numerous bays and ancient cities. These bays provide natural harbors in all seasons, and yachtsmen particularly enjoy exploring the unspoilt landscape.
Saint-Benoît is a commune on the eastern side of Réunion, a French island in the southwestern Indian Ocean. Facing the sea and extending inland toward the volcanic highlands, it lies in one of the island’s wetter regions, where frequent rainfall supports dense vegetation and productive farmland.
Bamberg, located in northern Bavaria, stands out for its remarkably preserved medieval layout, which earned it a spot on the UNESCO World Heritage list. Built on seven hills and often compared to Rome for that reason, the city’s architecture reflects over a thousand years of uninterrupted development. Bamberg is well known for its beer, and not just in the usual Bavarian sense. The city has more breweries per capita than any other town in Germany, and it’s the birthplace of rauchbier.
Himare is a coastal town in southern Albania, set along the Ionian Sea between steep mountains and a series of beaches, coves, and rocky headlands. The town is part of the Albanian Riviera and combines a modern waterfront with the older settlement of Himara on a hill above the coast. Olive and citrus trees grow across the surrounding slopes, while the sea shapes much of daily life and local recreation.

A little overshadowed by its close vicinity to such cities as Venice and Verona, Vicenza is known as a provincial city, tied up to the secular tradition of religiosity and conservatism, but also animated by an industriousness that has favored the development of great industries and innovative productive trends. This is the city of Palladio seeing that starting from the layout of its streets intersecting the traces of an ancient roman camp, it is the buildings erected by him that have molded this city, influencing its development. The heart of Vicenza is a casket filled with treasures enhanced by this divine architect who arrived from Padua as a humble stone-cutter, and thanks to his genius transformed his status and name, turning from the simple Andrea Pietro della Gondola, into the famous Andrea Palladio.
