Historic Ships in Baltimore, a National Historic Landmark, features five historic maritime artifacts: the USS Constellation, the last Civil War-era warship afloat; the USS Torsk, a Cold War submarine; the USCGC Taney, which survived the attack on Pearl Harbor; the Lightship 116 Chesapeake; and the Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse, one of Baltimore’s oldest lighthouses. Visitors can explore these ships through guided tours, interactive exhibits, and even overnight adventures.

This is Porto Santo’s most popular walk, though it rarely feels crowded, especially if you go first thing in the morning. The well-marked PR1 trail is around 5 km return and threads through the island’s northeastern hills, crossing a protected Natura 2000 area where you can spot native plants, wildflowers, and seabirds. The route is moderately challenging, with some steady climbs, but nothing too demanding for anyone used to hill walking. The reward comes at the viewpoints. Terra Chã looks out over rugged cliffs and deep blue water, while Pico Branco, the island’s second-highest point, offers wide 360-degree views across Porto Santo and the Atlantic beyond. The whole hike typically takes under three hours at an easy, unhurried pace, and at the top, you'll find a few picnic areas if you want to recharge before heading back.

One of the entrances to the ancient city of Halikarnassus, Myndos Gate is all that remains of the 7 km-long wall that once enclosed the city. Believed to have been constructed in the 4th century BC, its remnants still hum with history, offering a spot to enjoy breathtaking views and a pleasant stroll.

Tiddesley Wood Nature Reserve is an ancient woodland and was once an enclosed deer park. Today this is a great place to take a walk and unwind in the green nature, while admiring butterflies, insects and warblers as well as bluebells!
