As the shoulder season kicks in and travel’s mood shifts from where to why, we are delighted to share that Kandima has cooked up something that would be a perfect fit for families and groups, with something curated for sports fans looking to trade the sidelines for hands-on coaching with international talent.
Kandima is turning October into its most eventful month yet with Oktober Adventures – a month-long programme built entirely around the rise of ‘whycation’ travel, where guests choose a destination for purpose rather than just a spot on the map.
It kicks off with a beachfront Oktoberfest, runs through a roster of weekly international sport talent residencies (including with UK racer Sebastian Melrose, tennis coach and British Coach of the Year 2017 Ashley Neaves, and viral football freestyler Hadiya Hakseem all visiting within the month to host coaching sessions for guests), and builds to a spook-tacular Halloween finale with a haunted carnival playground for the whole family.
A few great reasons to consider a Kandima vacation:
- For sport fans still riding the high of the World Cup: an extensive talent-led coaching lineup, with athletes hosting hands-on sessions guests can actually take part in to build skills in football and tennis, two of the world’s most celebrated sports
- For trend-led travel: a genuinely fresh news hook on shoulder-season ‘whycation’ travel, with a packed month-long calendar that gives plenty to pull from for an autumn travel round-up
- For seasonal travel: a full month spanning Oktoberfest through to Halloween and beyond, hitting the natural highlights of the October calendar in one single island destination
- For affordable luxury: five-star island programming with rates from £238/night, making it as much a realistic escape story as an aspirational one
