Located approximately 50 miles west of Chester, along the northern Welsh coast, is the beautiful small town of Conwy. In 1283, King Edward I set out to build a series of magnificent castles, of which Conwy was one of the largest. In addition, the town was fortified with walls which still exist today, making this one of the finest surviving fortified medieval towns in the world.
Florø, the westernmost town in Norway, sits right at the edge of the sea as a small, coastal town with deep maritime roots and front-row views of the North Atlantic. Established in 1860 as a herring fishing hub, Florø still carries the rhythm of the ocean in daily life. Though small in size, the town serves as a jumping-off point to explore the rugged coastline, scenic fjords, and a collection of islands that each have their own stories and scenery.
Amédée Islet, known locally as Îlot Amédée, is a small coral islet in the lagoon off the southern coast of New Caledonia. It lies within the New Caledonian Lagoon, a UNESCO World Heritage site recognized for its extensive reef systems and marine habitats.
