Destinations of the World News - June 2025

في هذه القضية

Lazy, long days in the back garden. The irresistible aroma of a barbecue wafting through the air. The morning alarm clocks of hooting owls beckoning us out to wet our feet in the morning dew. Bleating lambs bounding after their mothers in the surrounding green fields. My own mother hounding us out of the house so that we would absorb every last ounce of vitamin D from the eternal brightness that suppressed nightfall into nothing more than a handful of hours. It seemed like time stood still. Summers, no matter their length, were special growing up in Ireland.

With the calendar flicking over into June, marking the beginning of the season, we offer up some inspiration to make the most of summer’s dreamy delights. In Indonesia, Harriet Shephard discovers the lesser-visited island gems of Java and Lombok. In Türkiye, Robert La Bua takes in the bright lights of Istanbul before retreating to the gentle pace of village life.

In Dubai, Matthew McQueen treats himself to a show-stopping Korean grill and Omakase experience at the vibrant and stylish HANU, while Kris Karacinski is given a licence to thrill in Aston Martin’s DB12. As for me, I enjoy a getaway in the UAE capital at Grand Hyatt Abu Dhabi Hotel & Residences Emirates Pearl, before savouring a wellness slumbering thanks to The SPA at Palazzo Versace Dubai’s new treatment, The Sleep Ritual. I round off the month by setting sail into new-found luxury at the superyacht-inspired surroundings of Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab.

Summer is here and wherever you decide to explore, take on every new opportunity with youthful curiosity and enthusiasm and make every moment special.
