The Costa Blanca at its finest — long sandy beaches, a clifftop castle, and a relaxed vibe.
Nantes is Jules Verne's birthplace and one of France's most successfully reinvented cities — a former industrial dockyard transformed into an artistic experience park. Machines de l'Île mechanical elephant park is the world's most creative public artwork, the Loire river flows past, and Muscadet vineyards await in the immediate surroundings.
