countless idyllic destinations that offer the perfect escape without the interference of long travel times.<br \/>\nWith crystal clear waters, hidden coves, and unspoiled nature, it feels like

&#8216;La Isla Bonita&#8217; or &#8216;the beautiful island&#8217;, La Palma is considered the most exotic and paradisiacal island of the Canary Archipelago.<br \/>\nUnlike the more touristy islands, La Palma offers a relaxed atmosphere and often relatively secluded and calm beaches.<br \/>\nDon&#8217;t expect snow-white bounty beaches; Here, you&#8217;ll spread your sheet on dramatically dark sand, formed by ancient volcanoes.<br \/>\nEnjoy a day at one of the larger beaches such as Playa de Puerto Naos, where you can enjoy beach bars, restaurants and adventure water sports.<br \/>\nFor peace and quiet later in the holiday, seek out Playa de Nogales, a hidden gem surrounded by cliffs and vegetation.<br \/>\nThe crystal-clear waters invite you to snorkel and dive, where volcanic eruptions have also created a unique environment underwater.<br \/>\nIn the heart of the island lies La Caldera de Taburiente, a gigantic volcanic crater.<br \/>\nThe national park, declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve, is fantastic for nature lovers.<br \/>\nWalk among native laurel trees and Canarian pines, and keep your eyes peeled for the rare La Palma giant lizard or Canarian buzzard.<br \/>\nThe magic of La Palma doesn&#8217;t stop when the sun goes down: thanks to strict rules against light pollution, the sky here offers a spectacular starry night.<br \/>\nThe Rogue de los Muchachos Observatory, located on one of the highest points on the island, offers a rare view of the Milky Way. <strong>Sao Miguel, Portugal<\/strong> From the Netherlands, it is only a five-hour flight to S\u00e3o Miguel, the largest island in the Azores, which lies about 1500 kilometers from the Portuguese coast in the Atlantic Ocean.<br \/>\nAlthough the beaches of S\u00e3o Miguel are not typical bounty beaches, you are in the right place for the tropical island atmosphere.<br \/>\nPraia de Santa B\u00e1rbara, a vast beach on the north coast, attracts surfers with its fantastic waves.<br \/>\nSurrounded by green hills and cliffs, Praia dos Moinhos offers a peaceful place to relax and enjoy the natural beauty.<br \/>\nThe verdant forests of S\u00e3o Miguel are the stars of the island, making it a perfect destination for sunbathers who love adventure.<br \/>\nOne of the most impressive sights is Sete Cidades, a crater lake with a blue and a green lake, separated by a narrow land bridge.<br \/>\nNot far from there is Lagoa do Fogo, the &#8216;Lake of Fire&#8217;, a high-altitude lake surrounded by rugged nature and silence.<br \/>\nWalking around this lake feels like stepping back in time, far away from the hustle and bustle of modern life.<br \/>\nAnd although there are no white sandy beaches, there are thermal hot springs, such as the one in Furnas, where you can relax after a special hike. <figure id=\"attachment_114679\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-114679\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
