Each week, the Second Life Destination Guide editorial team reviews dozens of new locations and events worth exploring. With all those beautiful destinations to check out, we thought we’d highlight a few of the entries that stood out to the editorial team. So in no particular order, here are a few locations on the Destination Guide that we recommend checking out this weekend:
Dya's Abandoned Vacation Spot
Dya's Abandoned Vacation Spot is a moderate region and everyone is welcome. Sometimes you see the glamour of the past. Most of the hotels and cafes are still closed. Take a walk to the old harbor, on the wide natural beaches or explore the island on the long country road with your own vehicle. Some photogenic spots, romantic places, and fun in a great environment of a bygone era.
