Unique destinations to visit this summer
Located in the province of Girona in Spain, Palamos offers cultural wonders and scenic beauty. Monasteries are tucked into mountains, golden sands are juxtaposed with craggy red cliffs, and four rivers converge in this walkable medieval city – with cobbled paths and ancient walls.
Walk up 90 steps to the Cathedral of Girona with its Baroque façade. Towering over the city, the church houses the world’s widest Gothic nave, spanning 22m across. At Figueres, stop by the Dali Theatre Museum to enjoy an immersive experience and learn more about the master of surrealism, Salvador Dali.
Next, head to the Andalusian port city of Motril, situated at the foothills of Sierra de Lujar. Bask in the mild subtropical climate here while sharing the essence of the Mediterranean with a tranquil sea and white sandy beaches. There are plenty of historic monuments, green spaces, and cultural attractions. Feeling peckish? Head to a tapas bar or local restaurant by the beach for authentic Andalusian dishes.
About an hour by car is the sun-soaked Granada, home to the famous Moorish palace of Alhambra. Meander through the well-preserved fairytale-like fortress and treasure of Moorish architecture with a backdrop of the Sierra Nevada range peaks. The best panoramic views of the Alhambra and its gardens can be seen from the Mirador de San Nicolas viewpoint, where the sunsets are said to be stunning.
Continue your magical journey through the Mediterranean in Kotor, a coastal town in Montenegro located in a secluded part of the Bay of Kotor – the deepest natural fjord-like bay in the Mediterranean Sea. In the Middle Ages, this natural harbour on the Adriatic coast was an important artistic and commercial centre with its own famous schools of masonry and iconography.
Under Venetian influence for four centuries, the city’s old town is lined with Unesco World Heritage structures, including churches, fortifications and palaces. Walk along the narrow streets and savour a slice of the old-world way of life here. Highlights include the magnificent Cathedral of Saint Tryphon and 17th-century Grgurina Palace.
Secure your adventure with Silversea, and discover a side of the Mediterranean you never knew.
