Turkey is expecting 2.2 million tourists from Russia this year, Turkish Culture and Tourism Minister Atilla Koc said at the Moscow International Tourism Fair. Culture and tourism play an important role in the development of bilateral contacts, and the increasing number of Russian tourists in Turkey is a proof to that, he said. We are trying to develop not only seaside tourism, although the majority of Russians associate Turkey with the sea, the beach, and the glimmering sun. Our country has huge cultural and environmental resources, and a growing number of tourists visit regions outside the seaside for studying our culture.

Holiday Wales A 25 metre white sand beach, which has its own palm trees, tropical lagoon, beach bar and holidaymakers, has been installed in Covent Garden market by British Airways Holidays. Eight luxurious tropical holidays to destinations featured in the brochure can be won.

A visit to neighboring Carriacou ( minute flight) is easily arranged by air or boat. Although a little hilly, Carriacou is not mountainous like Grenada. It is ideal for walking, boasting fine sandy beaches, natural harbours and beautiful views over the Grenadine islands. Petit Martinique (3 miles from Carriacou) has not been developed for tourism, but is an interesting place to visit by local boat from Carriacou.

Bringing a tropical beach to central London is a fantastic way to get everybody in the mood for summer: feel the sand between your toes! Its like bringing a bit of Australia to London.

Greece is an extremley popular summer resort especially Corfu where there are some very lively bars and very crowded beaches. If you are planning a holiday here then be sure to read our travel to Greece guide. Travel to Kefalonia Of all the Ionian Islands, Kefalonia suffers the least from the encroachment of tourism.
