Two Islands Destined for British Popularity

Direct flights to Mauritius are available from London Heathrow

With the world travel industry looking to the future, and not just to popular holiday destinations but areas which are likely to increase in attraction for those wanting second homes, two islands have been particularly highlighted. Whilst both Mauritius and Lanzarote are already vastly popular with those looking for island holidays, both destinations are believed to start attracting their fair share of expats over the coming years.

After London's travel fair brought together tourism leaders from across the world, there has been much speculation on which areas of the world will become hotspots of the future. And whilst many locations may see demand for flights rocket due to holiday tourism, both the Canary Islands and Mauritius could be set to see an influx of British residents.

Mauritius, a beautiful and exotic island paradise off the coast of Madagascar has flights readily available to it from the UK. London Heathrow offers services to this historic and culturally diverse region. And with its hospitable and welcoming people it is expected that many Brits may invest in second homes here. Meanwhile, the Canary Islands' Lanzarote is a familiar resort with those wanting Mediterranean holidays. However, with an increasing number of people looking to buy homes abroad, the island could see an influx of resident Brits. With Bristol, Cardiff, and Birmingham airports all offering services to this popular island, demand for flights could note considerable rises. And for many, 2011 may signal a new start in a foreign climate.
