Enter our January Where in the World contest and win £30 ! - Monday's question

Closes on 26th of January 2026

You could win a £30 cash prize in our January Where in the World contest.

We will be asking you to name different locations in the world each day between now and the end of the month.

We provide a picture clue which might be cryptic in addition to the written clues.

At the end of each day's contest we will pick the winner from all correct answers received and so the winner is not necessarily the first entrant with the answer. The overall winner of the £30 cash prize at the end of the competition will be the person who has the most individual wins and in the event of a tie a draw will be held to determine the winner of the £30 cash prize.

We will give you regular updates of the daily contest winners so you can see who is leading the competition.



Only one entry per day is allowed, otherwise your entry will not count.

Question:
This city, which has a connection with the picture, used to have a hotel that was completed in 1903. A 20th century US President stayed there a couple of times but the hotel was destroyed in the 1980s following a fire. A botanist, who was born in a place associated with tennis and who shared his surname with a character from Happy Days, visited the area in the early 19th century. A popular area in the city, especially with those who like being by the sea, has a name that might make you think of a property on a Monopoly board. What is the name of the city ?
