A closer look

Choose the coast and neighbourhood for your interests. A harbour walk, beach pause and museum visit need not all be squeezed into one afternoon.

Give the place its own time

Season affects crowds, opening and rates. Follow local swimming advice and ask about the precise hotel entrance and any renovation work.

Give the day room to unfold

Choose one main outing for each day and leave time for meals and the journey back. Confirm access, transport and any guided arrangements before setting out.
