The post Top Ski Resorts in Switzerland appeared first on Traveler Dreams.
]]>This is the highest resort in the Alpes area, with summits as high as 3,900 meters. Other than the usual facilities, the ski resorts here offer guests a GPS app to help them navigate between the different tracks.
This is a classic and perhaps most known as the luxury location for a ski vacation. The village has already hosted the Winter Olympics twice, and the facilities are state of the art. Don’t be surprised to find some world leaders and celebrities skiing on the same slopes as you.
Known mostly for the yearly economic summit, Davos is also a great place to ski in. The local resorts have more than 300 kilometers of different pistes (the longest is more than 13 kilometers long!), so you’ll never get bored.
This place is the perfect location for experienced skiers and less suitable for beginners. It has the steepest descents in Europe, which is obviously an attraction for many of the world’s professional skiers.

]]>This is probably the go-to beach for most people in the city. Being located just 15 minutes from the city center makes it very accessible. You can enjoy the golden sand and all the beach facilities as well as a beautiful promenade.
This is the center of the action. On this beach, you can enjoy numerous restaurants, cafes, shops and attractions. It is also possible to rent a bike and take a tour around the promenade. For beginner surfers, this is also a hot spot as swells are usually consistent.
A favorite place for local families. Balmoral Beach has calm water and a shark net, which keeps everyone safe. There are also many cafes around, as well as picnic spots where you can enjoy some quality time with friends and family.
The locals refer to it as “hipsters beach.” Swimming here is not really advised, because of rips and drop-off, but if you want to see and be seen—this is the place for you. This is also a popular meeting place for people who enjoy playing volleyball.

Opening hours: Monday to Saturday from 7am to 8pm

]]>This is perhaps Portugal’s most iconic beach. Surrounded by golden cliffs that separate it from the road, you will find easy access to its soft sand and clear water. If you like diving, you can also try out finding one of the numerous underwater caves.
Not far from the city of Lagos—which is full of hotels and great restaurants—this beach is heaven for photographers. The surrounding cliffs give you shelter from the sun and create a wide array of colors. Try to avoid it during high season, when it is packed with tourists.
This place is a unique spot and known for its sea-caves. The beach itself is lovely, and you can take a boat ride to see the famous caves or just rest on the white sand.

]]>The solution the local winemakers found was absolutely brilliant. They have created a small hole in the wall from which they can sell the wine while protecting their identity and limiting contact with the buyers.
Today there are around 267 “wine windows” in Tuscany, most of them in the city of Florence. These became once again popular lately with the spread of Covid-19. The restaurants in Florence were forced to close during the pandemic, but the 16th century solution was proved useful once again, allowing the wine sellers to continue running their business.
