This city, located 43 km from Lamezia, features the "Castello Normanno Svevo", which deserves to be visited on its own and has been turned into a museum that celebrates this Italian area as one of the pearls of Magna Graecia. Furthermore, the ruins of the ancient Greek city of Hipponion not only include a beautiful temple but also impressively high walls that were built to protect the province.

La Goulette stretches along a narrow sandbar between Lake Tunis and the Mediterranean, connected to central Tunis by the TGM commuter rail. This unpretentious port town thrives on simple pleasures: the kilometre-long seaside promenade lined with cafés where locals play backgammon over mint tea, and family-run restaurants serving just-caught seafood. While short on conventional sights, its charm lies in the rhythm of dockworkers, fishermen, and evening strollers who animate the waterfront. The ferry terminal links Tunisia to Europe, lending the harbour constant movement. Come for grilled octopus at plastic-covered tables as tankers glide past, or join the evening passeggiata when the sea breeze tempers the day’s heat.

The days of pineapple plantations were pivotal for the economic success of Hawaii, and visitors are now given the chance to explore this rich history. At Dole Plantation, exhibits will tell you more about this far-reaching market, while a gift shop, a snack concession, educational displays and the world's largest maze will serve your entertainment.

Fira’s the main hub of the island—busy, a bit chaotic in peak season, but a good base if you want everything within reach. It’s where you’ll find most of the museums (the Museum of Prehistoric Thera is the one to prioritise), plus loads of shops, cafés, and bars. If you’re using the bus to get around, this is where they all connect. It’s also a decent spot for watching the caldera without Oia’s crowds.
