Just a week ago, we showed you the most amazing islands in the world, so we continue our tour around the planet in order to discover five new and exciting places.
1. Bora Bora, French Polynesia
It is an idyllic island famous for its overwater luxury bungalows surrounded by a lagoon and a barrier reef. In the center of the island are the remnants of a extinct volcano.
It is a seaport destination for many passenger cruise ships. The official city motto is “One Human Family.” Natural sand beaches are surprisingly rare here, but you have the chance to snorkel above North America’s only living coral reef and enjoy the company of a collection of 400 species of topical fishes. Enjoy breathtaking views of the Atlantic in the heart of Key West at the Santa Maria Suites Resort.
It has incredible beaches and preserved mangrooves but this island is a fusion of cultures: Malay, Chinese, Indian and European influences, history and flavours. Penang is also well known for being the “food paradise” of Malaysia. Kek Lok Si is the largest Buddhist temple in Southeast Asia and it reflects the coexistence of cultures.
The Galapagos Islands are a biological marine reserve since it hosts a vast number of endemic species like penguins, sea lions, finches…which were studied by Charles Darwin in 1835. Feel like a true naturalist staying at the Hotel San Vicente Galapagos, from which you can enjoy the best views of the islands and their fauna.
5. Palm Islands, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
They are an artificial archipielago in Dubai in the shape of a palm tree that have a large number of residential, leisure and entertainment center as well as 520 kilometres of beaches. There are three islands: The Palm Jumeirah, the Palm Jebel Ali and the Palm Deira.
