Wonder Is All Around WONDER IS ALL AROUND BACKGROUNDERS THE HOTTEST BEACHES IN EUROPE EUROPE’S BEACHES ARE RATED AMONGST THE WORLD’S BEST FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS: THEIR STUNNING SCENERY, THEIR UNIQUE NATURE AND THEIR LIVELY ENTERTAINMENT OFFERINGS. HERE IS A SELECTION OF SOME OF THE MOST UNIQUE SPOTS EUROPE’S COASTLINE HAS TO OFFER. D Sinemorets © Shutterstock BULGARIA, SINEMORETS, BURGAS THE BLACK PEARL Visiting this Black Sea village, close to Bulgaria’s border with Turkey, comes with some nice surprises. In this hidden nook you will find two beautiful beaches, one of them formed next to a natural estuary where the Veleka River meets the sea amidst the fauna of the Strandzha National Park. The area offers plenty of wildlife-spotting opportunities for curious travellers. D http://goo.gl/maps/hrakO DENMARK, SØNDERHO, FANØ AN IDYLLIC ISLAND Come and discover Denmark’s best-kept secret. Fanø Island is an ideal place to relax. Picture the setting: migrating birds swirling overhead and a coastline dotted with quaint maritime villages. Fanø’s beach is incredibly wide at low tide and you can walk several kilometers towards the North Sea. The beach is ideal for discovering amber, or for adventuring as you can even drive your car on certain sections of these vast sands. D http://goo.gl/maps/OdS0W FRANCE, SANTA GIULIA, CORSICA D Sønderho PARADISE IN A NUTSHELL © VisitDenmark/Wedigo Ferchland This is paradise in a nutshell. The blinding white sand and turquoise water make Santa Giulia glimmer like a jewel in the sunshine. Sur- rounded by pine trees, the beach is a hive of activity with windsurfing, canoeing, horseback riding and quad bikes, all available for when it becomes too hot to continue basking in the sun. D http://goo.gl/maps/nr6Ls ITALY, RABBIT BEACH, SICILY THE TURTLE NEST Rabbit Beach is as unusual as its name suggests. Situated on the Island of Lampedusa, off the coast of Southern Sicily, this unique spot is a treasure chest of wildlife. It is most noted for being one of the few places in the Mediterranean where loggerhead turtles go to lay their eggs. Only reachable by boat, the journey makes the beach itself an even more satisfying destination. D http://goo.gl/maps/bVwRo LITHUANIA, CURONIAN SPIT ATLANTIS OF THE BALTICS Get in touch with your wild side! A manic mixture of giant sand dunes and windswept forest characterises this long stretch of sand. Myths surround these massive dunes, including the belief that villages are buried beneath the daunting dunes. D http://goo.gl/maps/5boEY MALTA, RAMLA BAY, GOZO FIT FOR A KING A beach fit for a king! A short ferry ride from the main island of Malta is Gozo, with Ramla Bay tucked away in a fertile valley. Upon vis- D Sopot Beach © Polish Tourism Organisation iting Ramla Bay, you will be struck by its long-stretch of brilliant red sands. Close by is Calypso’s Cave, a spot identified with Odysseus, the legendary Greek king. D http://goo.gl/maps/p7H9Q POLAND, SOPOT BEACH A SAUCY SPOT The atmosphere of the 30s combined with the hottest new trends make Sopot a scorching destination. Sopot is one of three cities that make up Poland’s coastal triangle. The beach itself has a Central European feel, with beer gardens and music clubs located straight on the sand and on the wooden pier. At night the promenade continues to be a hive of activity, making it a fantastic destination for more noc- turnal travellers! D http://goo.gl/maps/11Ndc PORTUGAL, FALESIA BEACH, ALGARVE RUBY ROCKS Prepare to be impressed by Falésia, one of the Algarve’s most stun- ning beaches, with its long stretch of white sand running alongside the dramatic backdrop of red cliffs. The beach is a quiet haven amongst all the crowded beaches in the region, but offering enough leisure facili- ties to ensure a comfortable day. Make sure you eat a delicious lunch at one of the restaurants alongside this unforgettable landscape. D http://goo.gl/maps/nwlU1 D Rhossili Bay © Shutterstock SPAIN, EL CABANYAL, VALENCIA URBAN ESCAPE The hustle and bustle of city life extends to El Cabanyal, Valencia’s city beach. The promenade is lined with restaurants serving delicious steaming pans of the local pride, fresh seafood paella, whilst locals enjoy a cold glass of beer in one of the many cafes as they soak up the rays. Is there a better way to go native? D http://goo.gl/maps/gUBKa UNITED KINGDOM, RHOSSILI BAY, WALES TRANQUIL CLIMBS An unspoilt beach is a rare find in the modern age, but Rhossili is exactly that with its pure sands and stunning sunsets. This is a beach to be enjoyed slowly, if you don’t arrive with a peaceful mind you will definitely leave with one! Visitors should also be sure to explore the gorgeous green pastures beyond.

And the O.A.T. Enhanced! The Baltic Capitals & St. Petersburg itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: What I love about the little town of Harmi, Estonia, is that it has a lot of heart. Its residents came together to save their local school, and now it’s a thriving hub for community events. Harmi is a new partner of our Grand Circle Foundation, and you’ll live a Day in the Life here, visiting the school and a family farm, and sharing a farm-to-table lunch with our hosts. I love the outdoors and I love art, so my walk in the woods with O.A.T. Trip Experience Leader Inese turned into something extraordinary when she led me along the path called the “Witches Hill” in Lithuania. It’s populated by 80 wooden sculptures of witches, faeries, and spirits that derive from old pagan beliefs. You’ll go there, too (and I bet you’ll be as surprised as I was to learn how prevalent those pagan practices still are.) I was also surprised—and saddened—to learn how terribly the Baltic people were persecuted during the Soviet era.

  • The Interview with Dimitar Popov
    „Many politicians in Bulgaria still act upon the maxim: The more concrete tourist blocks, the better!“ Interview with Dimitar Popov of Green Balkans about the difficult nature conservation work in Bulgaria. Dimitar Popov has studied economics in Plovdiv. Since 7 years, he works for Green Balkans, one of the largest nature conservation organisations on the Balkans with over 4.000 members. Within the scope of the project “NatuRegio – trai- nees for nature”, which is co-financed by EuroNatur, this year he has spent several weeks in two different German nature conservation institutions: in spring, in the stork village of Rühstädt in the biosphere reservation embedded in the fluvial landscape of the river Elbe in Brandenburg, and in summer, five weeks in the main office of EuroNatur in Radolfzell. There, they talked about his work, the situation of nature conservation in Bulgaria and his experience in Germany.

  • Woody and Grassy Vegetation Development in Different Landscape Elements of the Curonian Spit
    [Type text] Aplinkos tyrimai, inžinerija ir vadyba, 2009. Nr. 4(50), P. 30 - 36 ISSN 1392-1649 Environmental Research, Engineering and Management, 2009. No. 4(50), P. 30 - 36 Woody and Grassy Vegetation Development in Different Landscape Elements of the Curonian Spit Algimantas M. Olšauskas Klaipeda University (received in July, 2009, accepted in December, 2009) The species of woody and grassy vegetation grow on the seashore sands and wastes. These plants are adapted for less favorable existence conditions, some of them growing in littoral habitats of excessive moisture and salinity, the others tolerate infertile and dry sand. The aim of this study has been to analyze the dispersion of vegetation in different relief elements of the coastal protective dunes, to search for relation between woody and grassy plant species, and to foresee the tendencies of further seashore landscape development. It has been established that in the locations of an intensive flow of visitors a net of trodden paths is formed where the plants cover is disappearing very fast as there are suitable conditions for the spring and autumn winds to erode the coastal protective dune of the seashore of the Curonian spit. In a couple of years a trodden path turns into sand drifting corridors of 2 – 3 m. wide, and the trodden and lain places by holiday makers extend to 4 – 5 m. wide pits and hollows. After interconnection of these formations they shape different size deflations. The drifting sand carried by the prevailing western direction winds swamp the plains beyond coastal dunes and the outskirts of the forest and sandy meadows.
