From large to small, north to south, thousands of islands scatter the coasts of European countries giving rise to ports and shores to explore. Witness the Aurora Borealis from the cliffs of the Svalbard Islands and embrace the raw landscape and bracing climate of the North and Baltic Seas. Watch whales and dolphins from the Azores. Discover the magnificent backcountry and cultural heritage the Balearic Islands offer. Stand among the white walls and blue domes of the villages at Santorini and imagine the legendary city of Atlantis preserved beneath the waves. Explore the natural and cultural intricacies along with stellar coastal scenery hiding on European islands.
