Where to travel in spring

Spring forward into March

 

March is a month of transition. Spring starts to emerge across parts of Europe, yet further afield in places like Japan and Saint Lucia, you’ll find some of the most rewarding travel conditions of the year. If you’re wondering where to travel in March, this is a time to combine cultural highlights with comfortable touring weather and reliable sunshine.

Discover some of our favourite destinations to visit in March.

Say no to April showers

April is a month that rewards careful timing. Spring brings milder temperatures across North Africa and parts of Europe, while tropical destinations benefit from calmer seas and balanced conditions before peak summer heat or heavier rains arrive.

If you’re deciding where to travel in April, this is a strong window for combining culture, coastline and outdoor exploration in places like Morocco, Bermuda, and Indonesia, without extreme temperatures.

Have a spring fling with the city break in May

 

As the year moves towards summer across the Northern Hemisphere, May opens a window where wildlife viewing sharpens, mountain skies clear and Mediterranean villages in Italy and Greece hum back to life. Dry season conditions are settling across parts of southern Africa and the Andes in Peru, making safari drives and high altitude exploration far more rewarding.

As summer draws to a close, city breaks come back into focus, and few destinations pack as much into a long weekend as Valletta. Malta's compact capital combines centuries of history with a thriving food scene, waterfront views, and a walkable centre that makes it easy to fit plenty into just a few days. With warm autumn temperatures, open-air cafés still spilling onto the streets, and a calendar of events continuing well beyond peak season, it's an easy choice for anyone looking for somewhere that feels both relaxed and full of character.

Just 15 minutes from Paphos International Airport, it is a practical choice for couples, families, groups, and longer stays, with added services such as housekeeping, arrival food baskets, breakfast at the Golf Clubhouse, and private chefs available to make the holiday even easier.
