Strong fit if

  • You want adventure, natural landscapes, and diving and watersports.
  • You enjoy active days and getting outdoors.

Think twice if

  • You want every transfer and activity to be completely frictionless.
  • You mainly want to stay by a pool or on one beach.
  • You want lively nightlife every evening.

Travel from the UK

Allow roughly 17.5 hours of modelled flying time from London, before airport and transfer time. This is a substantial journey, so ten nights or more will usually make better use of the travel time.

How much effort does this take?

This asks a little more of you than a typical package holiday. Some independent planning and flexibility help, but it remains realistic for most prepared travellers.
