]]>Lewis, Outer Hebrides, Scotland
Although reaching the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides may take some time, it’s certainly worth it. You can expect white sand beaches and pristine water, and you will often find that you have huge stretches of beach almost to yourself. While this is great for relaxing and unwinding, you will want to make sure that if you’re a novice surfer there are people around, just in case you get in trouble in the water.
Woolacombe, Devon
The north coast of the county of Devon has recently been designated a surfing reserve, in recognition of the fantastic conditions that this coastline provides for surfing. Woolacombe, a sandy beach stretching for over three miles, is one of the most popular destinations. Experts and beginners alike enjoy the big waves on this shore, and once you’re done with surfing you can relax with a coffee and cake from one of the beachside cafes.
Saltburn-by-the-Sea, Yorkshire
This large beach in the county of Yorkshire has been popular with British surfers for decades. It can get busy, although for beginners it can be a relief to know that there are lots of others in the water with you. Once you’ve had enough of surfing, head to the funicular railway which will carry you to the top of the cliff for stunning seaside views.

]]>Kite Surfing
Water sports are a popular choice for travelers, as many people don’t have access to places to try these out in their home area. Kite surfing is one of the most exhilarating options for water sports, and you can enjoy the sensation of flying over the sea with the wind.
Zip Wiring
In various places around the world, you can find some incredibly long zip wires through stunning forests and mountains. Whizzing through the air will give you that much-loved rush of excitement while you enjoy the beautiful views.
Bungee Jumping
This activity is immensely thrilling, and you can enjoy the feeling of falling through the air only to be bounced back up into the sky by the bungee cord.

]]>Read Up on the Sights
If you’re heading somewhere you’ve never been before, do some research before you arrive and check out the key sights and activities of the area you’re visiting. From this list, try and narrow it down to three or four key activities (or less if these are all-day activities). If you’re really struggling to choose between two different activities, let yourself decide on the day as you don’t want to feel beholden to your travel itinerary when you’re on vacation.
What is the Vacation For?
Have you booked a short break because you want to visit a city you’ve never experienced before? Or, are you just sorely in need of some rest and relaxation? If it’s the latter, consider seriously limiting the activities you plan to, and let yourself chill by the pool or on the beach. It can feel hard to fully switch off when we’re on holiday, but if it’s a short break making sure you get some relaxation in is more important than anything else.
Go With Your Interests
If there’s an amazing hiking trail in the area you’re visiting, and a museum about the history of the local area, choose whichever activity you would go for if you weren’t on holiday. If you’re a more active person, it’s likely that the trail will appeal – whereas if you’re a history buff, the museum is going to be calling you. Try to ignore external pressures and an idea of what you ‘should’ see and do, and focus on what you know you’ll enjoy.

]]>Don’t Waste Time
For almost everyone, vacation time is precious and hard-won. Why waste your rare holiday arguing with friends or family about what to do, or dithering by yourself until half the day is wasted? Having some clear plans of what you want to see and do in your destination means that wasting time is less of a risk. This doesn’t mean that you can’t leave some days blank in your itinerary: just as carefully planning a trip to a local beauty spot or museum is useful, so is having a day of wondering and following your senses through a place that is new to you.
(@keleden2)No Regrets
When you’re visiting a new country, city, or town, it’s almost impossible to see and do everything on offer. However, you can limit your regrets by prioritizing certain activities and sights and making these key within your itinerary. This way, you’ll enjoy your time away, knowing that you’ve spent it in the way that suits you best.
Compromise
If you’re traveling with others, an itinerary is a must if you want to avoid (or at least reduce) arguments and bickering. Plan the itinerary together, so everyone gets to share their preferences and ideas for what to do on vacation. When you’re away, make sure that you do at least one activity chosen by each person, so no one feels left out or neglected.
