If we’re honest, we always think of Into the Blue as the ideal website for that special Birthday gift, but it’s a great source for all sorts of celebratory gifts - from a retirement gift, anniversary present or even for someone you love who’s just passed their driving test.

At this time of year many youngsters are stressing over exams at schools, colleges and uni. So to celebrate them passing their exams with flying colours, why not buy them an activity gift voucher for a trial flying lesson or a hands on helicopter lesson?

Another good time to use Into the Blue is when you need to buy a leaving or retirement gift for a work colleague. After organising the whip round and the ‘drinks at lunchtime’ on their last day, there’s nothing better than watching their face as they open an envelope inviting them to do something like drive a tank or a high speed zap cat boat ride. Much better than the traditional retirement carriage clock and more fun than monetary vouchers for High Street stores.
