Kadavu, Fiji’s fourth-largest island, is a picture-perfect holiday destination offering blue skies, white sands and beautiful ocean views, and located just a 50-minute flight away from the capital, Suva.

The island offers access to the Great Astrolabe Reef, one of the biggest barrier reefs in the world. Visitors can go snorkelling, or explore one of the many hiking trails through the rainforest. 

La Cumbrecita is a small hamlet located in Argentina that’s known for being the single pedestrian-only town in the country.

The area, which offers pine forests and clean air, was declared a protected ecological zone in 1996. Now, visitors are required to park their cars outside the town entrance before being allowed inside. Plenty of activities are available, including hiking to the waterfalls, tree-top climbing and zip-lining.

Thailand’s popular Phi Phi Islands consist of six isles. The roads on all of the islands are for pedestrians only, with the exception of motor vehicles used for emergency services. 

Located just 45 minutes from Phuket by speedboat, the Phi Phi Islands offer beautiful, unspoilt beaches and natural rock formations.

Ilha do Mel State Park—also known as “Honey Island”—is a tiny isle measuring just under 4 square miles in the state of Paraná, Brazil. The area was declared an ecological reserve in 1982. Only 5,000 people are allowed on the island at any given time, and some parts of the island are off-limits to visitors.

To get to the island, hop on a 90-minute boat ride from Paranaguá, a city in the state of Paraná in Brazil. Once you’re there, explore the Atlantic Forest, go for a surf on the beach, and take in the diversity of plants and animals in the area. The small island is also home to restaurants and inns.
