Travel guide

Tuvalu is a group of nine low-lying islands and atolls in the South Pacific that form the fourth smallest country in the world. It is also one of the most isolated and remote independent countries in the world. Since its highest point is 3 metres above sea level, some studies predict that the majority of the land will be regularly inundated by the sea by the end of this century due to climate change. While the nation makes preparations for its possible demise, it still welcomes tourists to its beautiful beaches.

Travel guide

Saint-Barthélemy is a French island in the Caribbean among the Leeward Islands. St Barts has long been considered a playground of the rich and famous and is known for its beautiful pristine beaches, gourmet dining in chic restaurants and high-end designer shopping. There is one small airport that can only accommodate small prop planes from St Martin and San Juan, and the harbour is too small to accommodate cruise ships. The fact that it is hard to get to is part of the island's appeal.
