Isle of Man in £40s-£50s rtn

Grab your khakis and binoculars, we're going on a Manx safari!

First up, being feline fanatics, we have to talk about the famously cute Manx cats. They are known for being naturally tailless and extra fluffy. You can spot them wandering the streets or pop by this café for a proper meet and greet.

And we can't ignore the island's most famous accidental residents, wallabies. They've been thriving here for decades thanks to a daring pair who escaped a wildlife park back in the 1970s.

Finally, we'll end our tour beneath the waves with the second-largest fish in the world, the basking shark. Head down to Peel, take a summer dip, and you might just catch these massive 30-foot giants cruising alongside you.
