New places on the islands 2025

Every year, dozens of new places surprise both - locals and visitors to the islands. To make it easier to explore, we've collected them all in one place.

Islands are always a great idea. Whether you’re here for the first time or the hundredth time, have lived here your whole life or have just moved over here. It’s islanders and those who come here for the hundredth time, who are really happy when the island surprises them with something new. We’re lucky to have those news.
