Editor's Note
Under the Music and Dancing (Control) Act, Christmas Day and Good Friday are now the only two remaining days of the year during which premises with music and dancing licences are not allowed to play music or have a singer or live band play. On Sundays, the licensed premises must only play music at a “low background nature” which is not capable of being heard outside the boundaries of the premises in which it is being played.

With so much going on around the island, there are so many tours you can partake in. There's everything from kayaking and fishing, to night dives and helicopters, and we've listed all of the best bits below.
