Planning this journey

Choose the coast and accommodation around your preferred atmosphere, access and budget. Tides affect the shore differently in different locations; local advice should guide swimming and water activities. Boat outings depend on weather and the confirmed operator’s requirements.

For town and village visits, wear appropriate clothing and ask permission before photographing people. Confirm every optional excursion, transfer and room category in writing. Your arrival and departure times determine how much activity fits on the first and last days.
