A Few Interesting IHG Pointbreaks For Eco-tourists

Posted on by

IHG Rewards has announced next quarter’s Pointbreaks, redeemable from 26 October to 31 January for 5000 points a night.  First I’ll embed the map that shows the worldwide Pointbreaks, then point out the ones that can work for eco-tourists.

AUSTRALASIA

A big fat zero for Australia which is par for the course.  If you’re birding West Papua or elsewhere in Indonesia you might want to chill out in Bali for a couple days although Benoa is not the best location.

AFRICA

Most people visiting any country in Southern Africa will be transiting JNB on either Comair or South African Airways so the Holiday Inn JNB Airport could come in handy.

SOUTH AMERICA

We have a couple interesting options in Brazil.  Both Manaus and Rio Branco are in good staging points for birding adventures.  Cucuta in Colombia isn’t super convenient to the Perija area but could be a stop-over.  San Jose, Costa Rica and Panama City are also good gateways to the more attractive birding hotspots in Costa Rica and Panama.
