Antigua

Antigua^* ticks a lot of boxes for holidaymakers. It has sunshine on tap, a seemingly endless supply of incredible beaches, lots of day trip options such as an island safari or snorkelling, and plenty of history to get stuck into.

Take a break from the white sands of Jolly Beach to explore Nelson's Dockyard, hike up to Shirley Heights for the best vantage point on the island or hop in a boat to visit Antigua's smaller sibling, Barbuda.

Balearic Islands

The four islands of Majorca, Ibiza, Menorca and Formentera make up the archipelago of the Balearic Islands^*, located in the Mediterranean Sea off Spain's east coast. Each island offers something different and each also has its own following of devoted holidaymakers who find plenty of reasons to return year after year.

Majorca^*'s big hitter is the capital of Palma, with its Gothic cathedral, boutiques and fine restaurants, not to mention its well-stocked resorts, beaches and award-winning restaurants located around the island.

Ibiza^* has its well-known party scene as well as a quieter, more laidback pace that appeals to many wanting to soak up the sun. Meanwhile, Menorca^* is much-loved by walkers and tiny Formentera^*, with its white sandy beaches, sits quietly a short ferry ride from Ibiza.

Barbados

With more than 92 km of platinum beaches for holidaymakers to unfurl themselves on, it's really no wonder Barbados^* draws people back again and again.

What's more there's a wide selection of places to stay from lively and loud, such as St James and St Peter, known for their reggae bars and calypso clubs, to quieter spots like Maxwell Beach made for romantics. Then there's the capital Bridgetown where you can get an insight into the island's past before sampling Mount Gay Rum.

Canary Islands

Resting in the eastern edge of the Atlantic Ocean, the Canary Islands^* promise a little bit of everything. As well as reliably good weather, there's an immense collection of activities from easy going to challenging.

Traverse the sand dunes of Gran Canaria^*, go wine tasting in Lanzarote^*, stargazing from Mount Teide in Tenerife^* or try surfing off the coast of Fuerteventura^*. Meanwhile, the wilderness on offer on petite La Palma^* is wonderful for nature lovers.

Croatia

Croatia^* has become increasingly popular with discerning holidaymakers over the last few years. It has the benefit of being able to offer something for everyone, often without the crowds.

While history can be explored within the walls of Dubrovnik^* and ancient Split^*, there are beaches of all shapes and sizes, whether sandy or pebbly, along its lengthy Adriatic coast. Croatia is also peppered with more than 1,000 dreamy islands, many uninhabited, some car-free and plenty fit for day trips or longer.

When you add the splendid seafood, local wines and variety of activities available from hiking to sailing, it's easy to see why Croatia is now a perennial favourite.

Cyprus

Cyprus^* is the third-largest island in the Mediterranean Sea and a super holiday destination. The coastal resorts are well-equipped with a range of accommodation from simple self-catering apartments to luxurious hotels, all well-positioned to help you make the most of the many Blue Flag awarded beaches.

Given its colourful past, occupied by everyone from the Assyrians to the Romans, Ottomans and British, Cyprus is also fully loaded with historic and archaeological sites, including three UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

There are plenty of ways to keep busy too. From hiking in the pine-clad Troodos Mountains, where the highest peak, Mount Olympos, looms large, to booking day trips, boat trips, water sports and following a themed cultural route around the island, be it a nature trail or cycling, wine, cultural or religious route.

Grenada

Any holiday to gorgeous Grenada^* is guaranteed to make the hassle of quarantining on return worthwhile. This easy-going island in the southern Antilles is often referred to as the 'Spice Isle', owing to its numerous plantations growing the likes of nutmeg and cinnamon, and where you can sample delicious local rum.

As well as beaches of dreams, Grenada is teeming with birdlife and wildlife which thrive in its dense tropical rainforests, much loved by walkers and naturalists alike.

Iceland

If you're thinking about an adventurous escape, Iceland^* may be just the ticket. One of the most geologically active places on earth, Iceland is a treat for anyone keen to see the power of nature at its very best. From lava fields and geysers to volcanoes, waterfalls, glaciers and hot springs, there's plenty to capture your attention.

TUI offers holidays to Iceland in both summer and winter, both promising very different encounters. Visiting the Golden Circle in summer, for example, you'll enjoy a midnight sun tour while in winter, you'll be searching for the Northern Lights.

What you do will, in part, depend on when you visit but activities like taking a dip in the warm waters of the Blue Lagoon, checking out the indy boutiques of chic Reykjavik^* or going whale watching are enticing possibilities.

Jamaica

The Caribbean paradise that is Jamaica^* is everything you would hope for and more. We're talking platinum sandy beaches with casual beach bars serving ice-cold Red Stripe and taste bud-tingling jerk chicken to the soundtrack of waves gently rolling into shore.

It's a place where you can kick back and enjoy some serious down time in the main resorts of Montego Bay^*, Ocho Rios^* and Negril^*.

That's not to say there isn't plenty to do away from the beach: choose from hiking to waterfalls, visiting plantations, voyaging out to sea or taking on the Appleton Estate rum experience.

You could also delve into the island's culture at the Rastafari Indigenous Village, get to know the legend that was at the Bob Marley Museum and learn about Jamaica's history, including the period of British rule and the dark realities of the slave trade.

Jersey

Jersey^*, the largest of the Channel Islands just off the coast of Normandy, is steeped in history and bursting with natural beauty. The north side of the island is more rugged and rocky while the southern and western sides boast endless beaches lapped by turquoise waters.

There's so much to do wherever you stay be it trekking the clifftop paths, cycling across the island or paddle boarding off the soft sandy beaches. There's also a good dose of cultural attractions, such as the Jersey War Tunnels and Tudor-era Elizabeth Castle, which sits on a tidal island just off the coast from the compact but cosmopolitan capital, St Helier.

Kenya

TUI recently made a return to the platinum shores of Kenya^*, which may just offer the most idyllic beach break you didn't know you needed. Think soft platinum sands, coconut-laden palms and warm turquoise waters lapping peaceful beaches with as much or little as you want to do on offer.

You could get even more from your trip to Kenya on an escorted tour^* with TUI, which will see you exploring the vast Masai Mara and spot the continent's Big Five among other activities away from the beach, as tempting as the country's coastline is.

Malta

The archipelago of Malta^* has seen it all through the centuries. From Romans to Knights and the British Navy, this island in the centre of the Med has played a pivotal role in the region owing to its location alone.

This makes it a fascinating place to visit as it offers both natural attractions like beaches, bays and caves for curious kayakers and oodles of culture across its many museums and capital, Valletta, a living, breathing UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Portugal

Pack your bags for the sun-drenched shores of Portugal's Algarve^* this summer and you'll be wandering the streets of scenic old fishing villages, enjoying beautiful beaches and trying fun-filled watersports before you know it.

If you like your water warm, remember to check for a hotel with a heated pool. As the Algarve lies at the eastern edge of the Atlantic Ocean, the sea isn't quite as warm as destinations across the Mediterranean, even at the height of summer.

Spain (mainland)

The British love affair with Spain^* knows no bounds. Eternally popular, mainland Spain guarantees good weather, delicious food and golden beaches as well as a plethora of things to do from sightseeing and watersports to natural attractions, hiking and cycling.

What's more, it's incredibly diverse. As well as cities by the sea such as Barcelona^* in the north and Malaga in the south, the coast changes as it winds its way down from Catalonia^* to Andalucia^*. You know you're in for a memorable holiday when you book an escape to the trusty shores of mainland Spain.
