In total, including national visitors, almost 10 million people visit the Algarve every year. More...
"There's a much simpler way to find the gay beach - follow the RED topped posts! For the gay cruising area in the dunes follow the BLUE topped posts. Also worth mentioning that the reason the beach clears by dusk is because of the sand flies which are vicious. The quickest way off the beach is to walk to the Riu Palace Maspalomas Hotel where there's a taxi rank. (The taxis won't take you if you are covered in sand, though.) The Riu Palace is huge and easy to spot from the beach. It is much harder to start at the Riu Palace and try and find the gay beach unless you know where you're going. (Although someone emailed to say that if you follow the line of gay men you can't go far wrong, and Dave says if you follow the red marker poles they will take you in roughly the right direction.) Half way between the sea and the Riu Palace are clumps of bushes which are popular with men who wish to sunbathe away from the wind. If that's what you're looking for just follow the footprints. What are the best things about Buenos Aires, the things that make the city such a popular and much-loved travel destination? How about the worst things?

Bringing you Caribbean shores... This cruise takes in some of the Caribbean’s most popular islands, as well as a few of its lesser-known gems. Leaving the Dominican Republic, you’ll spend a day at sea before arriving at the ‘Spice Island’ of Grenada. Wherever you go here, you’ll detect the fragrant scents of ginger, almond, nutmeg and vanilla. From Grenada, you’ll head to St Lucia, which is renowned for its rainbow-bright coral and abundant marine life. Get a close-up of its underwater world with a snorkelling or scuba diving session, on offer at almost every beach on the island. Talking of beaches, day five sees you disembark in Antigua, which has a different one for each day of the year. The main ones, like Dickenson Bay, come with great watersports line-ups, too. Next up is the half-French, half-Dutch island of St Maarten. Its two capitals - Philipsburg and Marigot - have great shopping scenes, offering everything from cut-price island crafts to cutting-edge designer gear. Last but not least is little Tortola, one of the British Virgin Islands. Nature is the star attraction here - think sprawling rainforests, botanical gardens and whiter-than-white beaches. The island’s Sage Mountain National Park is home to the highest point in the Virgin Islands, too. For the best views, climb aboard a small plane for a flight around the island. Like every year, Gran canaria in November brings us all together and no matter what we are doing it is a must to go there and have a good time. This year we also met James and Stuart, who never imagine we were social friends outside the pub and we introduced him to our rituals and friends we have on our previous holidays. The ice on the cake was the Carnival in the beach and The Famous "Stone", which is in the pub in one of the shelves at the back of the counter. |
