Slave Trade Sites, Part 1: Cape Coast Castle, Ghana

July 4, 2018 by Pete Martin4 Comments

Four hours after leaving Accra, through insane traffic jams, I reach Cape Coast. I am not sure this was the right thing to do today but I am here now. On the concrete expanse of the town square black and red canvas tents have been erected. The locals are dressed in their traditional clothes for a funeral day. Around the corner from this is Cape Coast Castle. With a warning from my driver to avoid the hawkers, I pay my entrance fee and join a tour … [Read more...]

Much later in 2008 it experienced a rebirth with a complete overhaul redeveloping every aspect of the property except its original footprint.

Majestic Malta

May 10, 2018 by Gordon SouthgateLeave a Comment

As a small island country located in southern Europe, Malta falls directly into the category of what we would call an often-missed gem. Malta is one of those countries many only know of by name. With a population just shy of 500,000 and a total land area of 316km2, this is one of the travel destinations whose small stature in no way dictates what it has to offer. With beautiful beaches, amazing geographical formations, and fantastic shopping, … [Read more...]

The island of Gozo is known for having some of the best beaches in the Mediterranean while offering a less crowded environment than the neighbouring island of Malta. The weather is temperate most of the year and the waters are usually calm and clear, so it's a perfect destination for swimming, snorkeling, watersports, photography, sunbathing, and sheer relaxation. Of course, being an island that’s literally surrounded by beaches makes choosing … [Read more...]

Top Water Activities to Enjoy and Items to Bring on Your Costa Rica Vacation

April 13, 2018 by Derrick M1 Comment

Many of us are naturally drawn to the water. After all, there's nothing quite like the sense of exhilaration one feels as their boat sails over the waves, or experiencing the sense of peace, stillness, and tranquility that comes from being alone in the sea. Freshwater adventures can also be fantastic, which is why making landfall once in a while during your sailing trip is a good idea. For example, Costa Rica has numerous inland rivers to … [Read more...]

At the Edge of Africa : Cape Agulhas.

April 5, 2018 by Pete MartinLeave a Comment

I have hired a car for the day. Early on a Sunday morning it’s quiet and once out of Cape Town the roads are emptier still. I take the main road, the R316, in a south-east direction. The countryside is deserted apart from the odd group of cattle or sheep out on the rolling yellow fields. The terrain becomes mountainous as I pass Napier and strangely in Bredasdorp I am welcomed to Agulhas, even though it’s another thirty-five kilometres … [Read more...]
