We’re actually first in the article, thereby, we win, we’re the best.
The i newspaper has listed the island of one of its ‘seven cheap British summer holiday destinations nobody else is thinking about’.

The i’s Sophie Liam must have done her homework on the recent issues at Ronaldsway, listing the island as one of the best ‘no-fly’ holidays in the British Isles.
She said: ‘In the Irish Sea between Cumbria and County Down, the Isle of Man is not an obvious choice for a summer escape. But as the world’s only entire nation to be recognised as a Unesco Biosphere Reserve – where the needs of people and nature are met equally – and with 10 marine reserves where you might see Risso’s, common and bottlenose dolphins as well as minke whales and basking sharks, as well as 32 beaches and several hundred wild wallabies, its shores have strong appeal.’
Previewing the Viking Long Boat Championships, the piece looks at the island’s history, while also promoting our unbeatable coastal scenery and promotes the Sound Cafe as somewhere readers ‘can enjoy Manx seafood while watching sunbathing seals’.
Sophie also promotes the island as a spot for stargazers and, of course, the wallabies get their own mention.
