Everyone dreams of Hawaii, but what about Europe’s version? 🇵🇹✨ The Azores is a hidden paradise in the Atlantic is waiting to be discovered. Here’s why it should be on your travel list: 🌊 Boca do Inferno: This dramatic coastal cliff formation near Sete Cidades gets its name (“Mouth of Hell”) from the powerful Atlantic waves that crash into the rocks. 🏞 Lagoa do Fogo: This untouched blue lagoon sits atop a volcano on São Miguel Island, offering panoramic views and hiking trails through lush forests. 💦 Lagoa do Pau Pique: A lesser-known but magical lagoon tucked away in the mountains, perfect for those looking to escape the crowds and immerse themselves in nature. 🏝 Vila Franca do Campo: A tiny volcanic islet off the coast of São Miguel, this natural swimming pool is a snorkeler’s paradise with crystal-clear waters and diverse marine life. 🌿 Cascata de Ribeira Quente: A hidden waterfall deep in the forest, this tropical oasis is the perfect spot to cool off after a hike through the lush Azorean landscape. 🍃 Gorreana Tea Factory: The only tea plantation in Europe, dating back to 1883! Wander through rolling green fields of tea plants, take a guided tour, and sip on fresh Azorean tea with a view. 🌺 Flores Island: Known as the “Island of Waterfalls,” Flores is the most picturesque of the Azores, with towering cliffs, dramatic coastal scenery, and endless fields of blooming hydrangeas. Would you swap Hawaii for this Atlantic paradise? 🌿🌊✨ 📽️ @iqbalgran @merijnvanbrussel @danielkordan 📍Azores, Portugal #beautifuldestinations #portugal #azoresislands

If you’ve been looking for an excuse to visit The Bahamas, this is it 🐚 Think impossibly clear turquoise water, powder-soft white sand and beaches that look just as good in real life as they do in photos. Whether you’re spending your days island hopping, snorkeling or simply doing absolutely nothing by the ocean, it’s one of those destinations that’s always worth the trip. 📍@nassauparadiseisland, Nassau, Bahamas

Shenzhen completely exceeded our expectations 🌃 From futuristic skyscrapers and neon-lit streets to architecture that feels years ahead of its time, every corner of the city feels like a glimpse into the future. After dark is when the city really comes alive, with the skyline lighting up in every direction. 📽️ Beautiful Destinations Original 📍Shenzen, China

Send this to the group chat! Miami is the perfect city for a girl’s trip, from beach clubs and rooftop cocktails to long brunches, ocean views and hotels you’ll never want to leave. We left with way more places saved than we had time to visit, which just means…we’ll have to come back! Who’s booking the flights? @expedia

Perched on the northern coast of Kefalonia, Assos is a tiny village of colourful houses, waterfront tavernas and quiet streets, all overlooked by a 16th-century Venetian fortress. It’s the kind of place that’s best enjoyed slowly, whether you’re wandering the harbour, stopping for a long lunch by the water or making the climb up to the castle for the views! 📽️ Beautiful Destinations Original 📍Assos, Greece

It’s easy to see why Atlantis Paradise Island has become one of the Bahamas’ most iconic resorts ☀️ There’s so much more here than just the waterpark. Spend the day drifting through the Rapids River, walk beneath sharks in the Predator Tunnel, swim with stingrays, unwind by one of the resort’s 14 pools, explore Marina Village, enjoy dinner at Nobu and end the evening with a Bahamian sunset. Whether you’re staying for a long weekend or a full week, there’s enough here to fill every day with something different 🐚 📍@atlantisbahamas, Paradise Island, Bahamas

Life moves a little slower in the Aeolian Islands 🌊 Just off the northern coast of Sicily, this volcanic archipelago is made up of seven islands, each with its own character. Think sleepy harbors, colorful fishing villages, crystal-clear water and long afternoons that seem to stretch on forever. It feels like a completely different side of Italy, one that really reminds you to slow down and enjoy every single moment. If you’re looking to escape the crowds, this is one part of Italy we can’t recommend enough. 📽️ Beautiful Destinations Original 📍Aeolian Islands, Sicily, Italy

Halfway through Cohort 4 of the Beautiful Destinations Academy, powered by @visit.dubai 🇦🇪 Over the past six weeks, these four creators have been pushed to see, shoot and tell stories in new ways, taking on creative challenges across Dubai while continuing to develop their own unique style. We’re incredibly proud of everything they’ve achieved so far, and can’t wait to see what the second half of the programme brings. Show some love to our creators: ✨ @miradewinter ✨ @renataresc ✨ @jimmlin ✨ @julianstollmeier The best is still to come. #BDAcademy

Miami surprised us in the best way 🌴 We expected great beaches but what we didn’t expect was how much variety the city has. One minute you’re wandering colorful Art Deco streets, the next you’re enjoying cocktails in rooftop bars, dining in incredible restaurants and sleeping in hotels you never want to check out of. This 3-day Miami itinerary covers all the spots we’d recommend for a first visit! Which stop would you be heading to first? @expedia
