Destinations to inspire your next sabbatical

May 2023

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and relax. Let’s go to your happy place. Picture yourself under a private cabana, your breath slowing to match the rhythmic tides of the ocean as it kisses the shoreline. Maybe you’ve melted into your robe as you dip your toes in the healing waters of Costa Rica’s natural hot springs, or perhaps you’re dreaming of losing yourself in the bliss of a digital detox in Bali – far from the crowds and even farther from the stress of everyday life. Whether you opt to lose yourself in the hustle and bustle of a distant city or find yourself on a remote tropical getaway; you don’t need an excuse, a reason, or an explanation to put yourself first – just a passport and the will to be well.

Escape reality in Mauritius  

You step off the plane and notice that life is different here. It’s slower, relaxed, peaceful – almost enviably so. The feeling sticks with you everywhere you go – the vibrant markets of Port Louis, the lush forests of its protected national park, and of course, the beaches, which are often referred to as the world’s best, and for good reason. Kick your shoes off, feel the warm sand on your feet, and stay a while, maybe even longer than you intended.  

Nourish yourself in Bilbao 

Fresh seafood and sizzling meats, tapas shared among loved ones, and a wine glass that never empties; the thriving restaurant scene in Bilbao, Spain is a feast for all senses. Treat yourself to a mouthwatering journey, filled with Michelin-starred restaurants, award-winning chefs, boundary-pushing gastronomy, and an abundance of flavors – all existing within a walkable city that boasts unforgettable beauty.  

Cruise into a world of wellness 

A wellness tour with Oceania Cruises is filled with possibilities. Enjoy an invigorating six-kilometer walk, starting at Gorrondatxe Beach and continuing to a fishing village that reflects the Basque way of life. Restore your mind and body at Terme dei Papi, and soak in the same curative waters popes have been visiting for centuries. Or, simply revel in a pastoral landscape that has inspired artists and poets such as Michelangelo and Dante. Book before May 15 to enjoy fares as low as $899 on over 60 extraordinary cruises.
