Iceland has a way of making you feel very small, which is surprising for such a small country. Not in a bad way. In the kind of way where you’re standing in front of a waterfall so powerful you can feel the spray on your face from hundreds of metres away. Or you’re driving through...

Tucked away on the wild and wonderfully unspoilt Llyn Peninsula in North Wales lies a beach that quite literally sings beneath your feet. Porthor or Porth Oer, or Whistling Sands Beach as people refer to it in English, is one of those rare places that feels like a secret. If you’re the kind of traveller...
