Honfleur

Adobe 206054745

Honfleur at the mouth of the Seine is one of the most picturesque harbour towns in France. The narrow slate-clad houses around the Vieux Bassin, once home to the Impressionists Monet and Boudin, are among the most painted scenes in Normandy.

Leg 2

Guernsey, Kanalinseln

In the English Channel, Guernsey serves as the main island of its namesake bailiwick, a British Crown Dependency with its own constitution and tax law. The capital and harbour Saint Peter Port with its 13th-century Castle Cornet watches over the bay, and Victor Hugo's house recalls his years of exile here.

Leg 3

Herm, Kanalinseln

East of Guernsey in the English Channel lies the tiny Channel Island of Herm as a car-free and bicycle-free idyll. Just three kilometres long, it offers white shell-sand beaches such as Shell Beach, medieval stone churches and spectacular views across the Petite Russel channel to the neighbouring islands of Sark and Jethou.

Leg 4

Dartmouth

Dartmouth lies at the mouth of the River Dart on the English Channel on the south coast of England in Devon. The Britannia Royal Naval College on the hill above the town has trained Royal Navy officers since 1905, the ferry across to Kingswear plies the river, and 14th-century Dartmouth Castle still guards the estuary.

Leg 5

Kinsale

Colourful harbour town on a sheltered bay in southern Ireland's County Cork, around 30 kilometres south of Cork city. Known as Ireland's culinary capital with starred restaurants, Charles Fort and memorials to the sinking of the Lusitania.

Leg 6

Cork

Cork is Ireland's second-largest city, in the south-west on the River Lee, which splits the city centre into two channels. Its adjoining natural harbour ranks after Sydney as the second-largest natural harbour in the world, and the English Market in the centre has been the city's culinary heart since 1788.

Leg 7

Dublin

Dublin is the starting point for Ireland's wildest coastal landscapes. Excursions head to the Cliffs of Moher (214 m above the Atlantic) and to Newgrange - a megalithic tomb more than 5,000 years old, older than Stonehenge and Egypt's pyramids. The Guinness Storehouse and the Book of Kells at Trinity College are city must-sees.

Leg 8

Douglas

Douglas is the capital of the Isle of Man in the Irish Sea between Britain and Ireland. The two-kilometre horse-drawn tramway along the seafront is the oldest in the world, and in June the famous Tourist Trophy motorbike races thunder through the hills around the town.
