Switch off on the beach

Sometimes you just want to lie back and enjoy life

Sand between your toes, the sound of the waves lapping on the shore. There’s nothing quite so relaxing as a beach. You can while away the hours in the company of a novel and your loved one, gently turning a golden brown in the sun. Forget about time altogether until the sunset tells you it’s time to wander off to a battered hut to buy roast lobster caught just an hour ago by the fishermen.

On the other hand, if sitting around isn’t your thing, then there’s surfing, parascending, wave runners or speedboats to get the adrenaline pumping.
