If you want a memorable vacation, away from the daily bustle you can opt for a holiday on an island. But choose an island where you can go hiking if you’re not the kind of person to sit all day at the beach. Here are three of the most fascinating islands you can visit.
ST. GEORGE ISLAND, FLORIDA
St. George Island is a real jewel, surrounded by crystal clear waters of the North Bay of Mexico. The island that covers an area of approximately 30 kilometers long can offer you countless opportunities for leisure. From hiking, to bars, restaurants, cafes and shops where you can buy souvenirs.
About half of the island is “covered” by a picturesque park. The shore of the island consists of a long strip of beaches with fine sand.
You can go hiking on the trails of wood inside the park, where horizons are dominated by tall trees and maritime pine forests. When you get tired, you can relax on the beach where you can enjoy a refreshing cocktail.
ANGEL ISLAND, CALIFORNIA
Angel Island is situated in the Bay of San Francisco, California and is one of the best choices to escape the noise and bustle of big cities. The whole area of the island is covered by National Park Angel Island. It is the perfect location for a picnic in the family but also for a romantic getaway for two.
The mountain landscape of the island will invite you to long hikings and the coasts offer you tempting places for meditation. In addition, the island’s south coast offers breathtaking views over the city of San Francisco.
SARDINIA ISLAND, ITALY
Sardinia is a wonderful place near Italy. This is one of the greatest jewels of the Mediterranean Sea.
Here you can see a wide variety of landscapes, from coastal areas to steep hills and high peaks. In addition, the Mediterranean climate is ideal for hiking throughout the year. Being a huge island, you will need to spend more vacations in the area to fully enjoy the beauties of the island and to do the whole island on foot.
