5 most exotic places in the world you should keep on your travel radar
Check these exotic locations to travel in a post-pandemic world.
In this modern world, escapism has become the new religion. But as life’s rhythm becomes faster every day, simply booking a holiday is not enough. More and more people are searching for places that will finally make them move and change their lives. These can’t simply be man-made wonders where you’ll take a lesson in history and emerge yourself in a different culture. They must be nature’s true marvels, exotic landscapes whose beauty is an archetype that’ll make you feel like you’ve belonged there since ever.
1. Columbia
Inside the beach hut with lagunes in your eyes
Columbia is one of the few countries that has succeeded to resist the tourist trail so long. True, times are changing and tourists are finding their way, but this country is still full of hidden beaches with swaying hammocks and azure water. So, when you get tired of hiking through Tayrona National Park you’ll have no problem finding a beach hut you can call your own. You can feast on exotic fruits tucked away from the world, knowing that a never-ending adventure is just a glimpse away, waiting in the lagoons whose beauty seems to be from some entirely different world.
2. Croatia
Shelter in the midst of the worn-out secret
It is undeniable that Croatia has pulled out all its secrets a long time ago as a country that practically lives of tourism. But, despite the fact that its island of Vis has been crawling with island hoppers, its exotic beaches and dramatic cliffs can still provide many shelters. It may seem that this gem in the Adriatic is up for grabs, especially when you realize it’s just a short boat ride from the well-known town of Split, but you’ll be surprised to see that many of its coves have truly stayed secluded. If you take a boat to the hidden Stiniva beach you’ll find out it’s a place where you can truly get lost even within a crowd.
3. French Polynesia
The mystical scent of the untouched
The mesmerizing sparkling of emerald lagoons will probably make you want to explore all five archipelagos of French Polynesia, especially after your nostrils catch the sent of Tiare Tahiti flowers mixed with that of coconuts and vanilla. But no man is able to cover a total of 118 islands, so you should let that mystical sent take you to Maupiti which has rightfully deserved its reputation of ʽthe untouched islandʼ. The sand of its beaches, whiter than the purest white, will truly make you feel like the world is completely new and pure again. It is sprinkled with caves as mystical as the air around them and after just one glimpse from Mount Te’urafa’atiu, you won’t have any doubt that the world will never be the same again.
4. Australia
Into the sea where it all began
To experience life at its purest there’s no better place from the biggest single structure composed of living organisms. Australia has been on the touristic maps for what now seems like an eternity, but only the majestic Great Barrier Reef can be seen from outer space. This true wonder of the world consists of nearly 3000 individual reefs and about 900 islands, stretching across 344 400 square kilometers. Even before you dive into this world’s largest coral reef system, just soaking up brilliant blue and white hues of the Whitsunday Islands, you will be able to feel the ancient archetype waiting below. Once you find yourself surrounded by the diverse aquatic species, such as leatherback turtles, you’ll realize that the various colors of fishes – butterflyfish, parrotfish, clownfish, angelfish – are truly primal. It will be clear from the start that this could be the place where it all began. And after you catch a glimpse of the migrating humpback whales you’ll have no doubt about migrating yourself. Just keep in mind that staying close to the Great Barrier Reef can easily also have a paperwork barrier, so make sure with immigration solicitors in sydney that no paper will ever cover the surface of that forgotten kingdom.
5. Madagascar
The Return to Eden
Madagascar is not only one of the Earth’s most unique ecosystems, but it’s also the home of the landscapes that can truly be called otherworldly. We don’t say this in any extraterrestrial sense – it is just the place where nature still retains its power in this world where men have done everything to drive it away. The best proof for this lies in the series of vertical limestone rocks that form the Tsingy forests, also known as the ʽForest of Knivesʼ. It is not the place that is supposed to make you feel comfortable, but it could make you feel truly alive. Once you regain the sense of your place in the world you can take a stroll through the Masoala National Park and its thriving plant and animal species where you’ll realize nature has more than rocks to amaze us.
As you can see, although the world seems to speed ahead destroying wonders and secrets on the way, there are still shelters from this modern storm. There is still the untouched, the primal, the truly powerful. There is still a way to who we are and who we can become.
