It
became a common practice to recommend the quests routes of interest.
We find that is not very wise idea not only because certain places
get realy crouded with no possibility to berth in high season but
this seems to “obligate” the guests and keep their discovering spirit
on minimum. And in country with 1000 islands it would be a real shame.
Take following notes as useful tips for we don’t know weather you’re
looking for quite bays with no inhabitans, national parks, if you’re
gourman and admirer of good wines or simply in search of rich night
life. |
