This issue of ATM celebrates all things summer (and spring) on our continent. Our Beach Love article is all about Africa’s best beaches, the Indian Ocean islands and places to play when the summer holidays arrive. From North Island in the Seychelles to the squeaky white sands of Benguerra, we hope this feature takes you on a visual journey of sheer happiness, to a place where the clock is always on African time and your most pressing issue is to decide what to have for lunch.
