Isle Of Man - Douglas  |
<<< Back |
The Isle of Man is a very popular tourist area, the climate is mild due to the Gulf Stream and even in winter palm trees flourish. There are over 500 miles of roads and as the speed restriction for coaches is 40mph this will be a relaxing holiday. Douglas is the island’s capital overlooking Douglas Bay, a 11/2 mile stroll may be enjoyed along the seafront promenades – the unique horsedrawn tram cars provide a more leisurely alternative.
