Where to go on vacation in September?

Some travelers mistakenly believe that tourist season already over and it's too late to go to rest. In fact, this is not so, September is the “golden time” for recreation, both in Russia and abroad. You just need to know where to go. Below I have selected the most popular destinations, according to the majority of holidaymakers.

Russia

In our country, there are a huge number of places where you can have an amazing time in September. Most prefer the sea, but there are tourists who are interested in other options. For example, holidays in the mountains or sightseeing, a variety of excursion programs, and so on. I'll start, perhaps, with the most popular destination - the Crimean peninsula.

Crimea

By car from Moscow - 1080 km.

Contrary to the prevailing opinion that you should go to the peninsula only in summer, some travelers tend to get here in September. And they do it right. During this season, most hotels, boarding houses and so on, reduce prices for their services. In addition, a comfortable temperature is set in the Crimea in September, the sea is perfectly warmed up.

According to the reviews of most vacationers in September, it is better to relax in Yalta, and I support them in this matter. Another place ideal for a comfortable, measured holiday in September on the peninsula is Simeiz. The town is small and calm. Mostly people come here who are tired of the bustle of the city. Naturally, it is the best fit for a September vacation. South coast Crimea.

Tours to the Crimea from 19,000 rubles with a flight (for two)

Hotels and guest houses (from 600 rubles per room)

One of the most popular destinations. A country with a rich history, a huge number of attractions. In September, the season of discounts begins (in many hotels operating on the All Inclusive system). Some holidaymakers recommend going to Fethiye. There are many beaches, a lot of excursions and a huge selection of various entertainments.

Recently, the resort of Marmaris has received special attention, especially its famous Cleopatra beach. By the way, even scientists have confirmed the uniqueness of the sand that covers the coast on the most romantic beach in Turkey.

When choosing Greece as a holiday destination in September, you should initially decide where you prefer to spend time: on the mainland or on the islands. In the first case, I recommend paying attention to such resorts as Halkidiki and Pieria. This season is the most comfortable there. Please note: on the mainland, the weather is changeable and in September cooling can be observed up to +16°.

So I advise you to choose between the southern Greek islands: Crete, Rhodes or Kos. By the way, among our compatriots, these are the most popular destinations. At the same time, it is quite comfortable to relax on the island of Crete, and besides, it is not expensive not only in September, but also at the end of October. Well, for those who prefer not a calm measured rest, but active water sports, I advise you to take a closer look at the resort of Zakynthos.

Special attention, is given to one of the largest cities of the island - Limassol. By the way, in autumn there is a wine festival.

Young people prefer to relax in the stunningly beautiful bay of Ayia Napa. Night life here in literally"beats the key." Families with children who prefer budget holiday, go to Larnaca. Well, for water activities worth a trip to Protaras. The most relaxing holiday in Cyprus awaits you in Pissouri. In general, to the question: “Where is it better to relax in Cyprus?” Many travelers answer: "Everywhere!".

An amazing country, very beautiful, with positive energy and good-natured people. But you should not go to the central or northern part of the country for a beach holiday. Already from the first days of September, a ban on swimming begins to operate there. Basically, our citizens prefer Capri, Sicily and Apulia.

Relaxing on the beach is, of course, wonderful, but I still recommend taking part in one of the exciting excursion programs to the amazing cities of Italy: Rome, Milan, Venice or Naples. By the way, in Sicily and Sardinia, sunny weather lasts the longest in September. The temperature of the water in the sea here is about 24 °.

Holidays in Bulgaria have always been a real pleasure for us. This is one of the most popular destinations. And there are many good reasons for this: proximity to our country, an abundance of fresh fruits, low prices, a high level of quality of services provided and, of course, warm weather. September - perfect time for vacation.

The country is generally warm, but at the same time, the most comfortable temperature is in individual resorts: in Sozopol, Sunny Beach, Rezovo, and so on. In the velvet season, rest here is no worse than in the "high". There are various entertainment centers, water rides. By the end of the month, it becomes cool, swimming is no longer so comfortable.

The tourist season in Montenegro is one of the longest (from May to October), so the weather in September is just wonderful here. If you intend to actively spend time, I recommend going to a small town - Budva. There is more than enough entertainment for every taste, age and wallet size. There is even a casino. In the vicinity of the resort, there are about 30 beaches.

Well, if you prefer to combine a beach holiday with a tour of the monuments of ancient architecture, go to Petrovac. In addition to free well-maintained beaches and diving, as well as sea cruises, travelers are delighted with the Venetian fortress located there. Do you like a variety of musical programs, theatrical shows and festivals? Then you should definitely visit Kotor.

The weather in Spain, in early September, is not much different from summer. The temperature keeps around +30°, but in the second half of the month, it is not so hot anymore. The thermometer drops to +23 - 26 °. According to most travelers, the whole of Spain is ideal for a vacation in the velvet season. At the same time, individual resorts are especially popular.

For example, the Costa Brava provides an opportunity to engage in active water activities. There are beautiful landscapes and incredibly clear sea. But the Costa Dorada is considered a universal resort suitable for any age category, preferences and wallet size. You can swim the longest in the Costa Tropical and De Sol. Holiday season there lasts six months of the year.

The best places to stay in September in Tunisia are resorts located in the central part: Sousse, Hamammed and Magdia. The air temperature there is kept at + 26 - 30 °, and water + 24 - 26 °. There is more than enough entertainment: water parks, entertainment centers, a lot of excursion programs.

As a rule, for almost all services, in the velvet season, prices there are reduced by 20 percent, and in some places by as much as 30. So the rest promises to be not only the most interesting, comfortable, high-quality, but also inexpensive. By the way, Tunisia is especially revered by divers. For his famous Coral Festival.

Holidays in this country, in September, can bring many surprises. Including not very pleasant, for those holidaymakers who go here for a tan. In September, tropical rains often fall here, the sky is covered with clouds. And at the same time, this does not stop many travelers. If you are one of them and want to get the most out of your visit to Thailand, choose Pattaya, Bangkok or Sammet Island.

There the weather is the most “kind”, comfortable temperature of air and water, will bring a lot positive emotions. Phuket is also a good choice. There are many excellent beaches, the daytime temperature is kept within 30 °, and at night - +24. I advise those who like to dive with scuba diving to consider the option - Nai Harn Beach.

In this country, September is a real velvet season with all its virtues. The air and water temperature is more than comfortable, there is no influx of tourists. The cost of hotel rooms is pleasantly pleasing. The best sandy beaches, according to numerous reviews of vacationers, are located in Dubrovnik and on the island of Korcula.

In many countries of the world, various festivals are held in September, and Croatia is no exception. Going to the resort, you get every chance to get to the famous "Beer Festival". Tourists vacationing in Zagreb will be able to see the festival of theatrical art, and in Istria there is a festival of live organ music.

Not a particularly popular destination among holidaymakers, whose vacation fell in September. This is an amazing place, pleases with the beauty of the surrounding landscapes, comfortable temperature, both sea and air. In general, to fly here and have a good rest, there is an opportunity at any time of the year. But, it is the velvet season that is considered the most successful moment.

It cannot be said that spending time here will be budgetary, the island is expensive. But, believe me, what you will see there, what feelings you will experience, is definitely worth it. By the way, if you still decide to go here, be sure to visit the capital - Valleta. Awesome place.

The country of romantics is beautiful at any time of the year. Naturally, spending time during the velvet season is best in the south of France. It rains five times during the whole month. During the day, the air temperature is more than comfortable. In Marseille and Nice +25°, at night about 16°. At the same time, the water temperature in the sea is kept at + 24 °.

By the way, holidays in France can also hardly be called budget. Even despite some reduction in airfare. At the same time, this country has always been popular with a certain category of holidaymakers.

Recreation is more than varied. After all, your attention is offered resorts located on the shores of several seas at once: the Dead, the Red, the Mediterranean. Resort towns on the Dead Sea are very popular. They are rich in luxury hotels (at affordable prices), health centers and so on.

The best, most popular are: Ein Bokek, Neve Zohar. If you decide to go to the Red Sea, I recommend considering the option of Aqaba or Tala Bay. By the way, the last option is ideal for families. Fans of the Mediterranean go to Tel Aviv or Herzliya.

Amazing country. September is considered the coolest month here. And this is at a temperature of + 30 ° during the day, + 23 ° - at night. As a rule, tours are bought in Bali, but Jakarta should not be discounted. The water temperature is kept within 27 °. By the way, at this time there are never storms.

But not the best time for divers. The low tide season begins, not a very good time for scuba diving. But for swimming and sunbathing - the most suitable time is in the velvet season. By the way, in Indonesia in September there are also many exciting events and various festivals.

A lot of divers go to Jordan. Exploring the underwater world of the Dead and Red Seas is not one of the most exciting activities on vacation. The air temperature in September here for many travelers will seem quite high +31 and above. Well, those who did not have time to relax in the summer at sea will only rejoice at this.

The most popular resort in Jordan, on the Red Sea, is Aqaba. Well, if you decide to spend time at the Dead Sea, famous for its healing powers, go to Amana. Note that you can have a great time here, not only basking on the sand and swimming in the sea. But also taking part in one of the fascinating sightseeing tours.

Another island, or rather a whole group of islands in the Indian Ocean, where vacations are far from budget. But here the purest air, unique landscapes and incredibly clear water, gently turquoise. The air temperature fluctuates within 30 °. There are practically no significant differences.

Rains if they go, but mostly at night. By the way, going to the Maldives, you will see that the water in the ocean can be much warmer than in the sea. Here it is kept at around 30 ° with a plus sign!

Here is a real paradise for divers, starting just in September. True, rest here "will cost a pretty penny", but believe me, it's definitely worth it. Although of course if you try, you can find a tour at a very reasonable price.

The weather at the beginning of the velvet season is just wonderful, the thermometer rarely drops below +29°. The hottest thing will be on Praslin Island (+32). For those tourists who do not really like this weather, I recommend going to Silhouette Island. There, that the temperature of the water, that the air is kept at one mark - 24 with a “+” sign.

Rest here will bring real pleasure to those holidaymakers who want to experience a unique feeling of absolute freedom and enjoyment of every moment. The temperature of air and water is almost the same. Keeps within + 24 - 25 °, at night it drops by only one degree. This is what distinguishes Mauritius from other resorts.

If you do not want to overshadow your vacation with rains, you should not choose Tru-do-Duc and Blue Bay. Although on the other hand, the precipitation here is short. Especially the mood will not be able to spoil. By the way, if you decide to stay in the city, the island of the same name, be prepared for more low temperatures+23 - 24°. In addition, there are strong winds in Mauritius.

Well, that's about all I wanted to tell you today. I hope the information will help you make a choice: "Where to relax in September." Have a nice, unforgettable vacation in good company! I would be grateful to everyone who will share their opinion or experience in this matter.

The bad news is that summer has gone and is unlikely to return in the next seven months. Good news: if your vacation fell at the end of September or October, then you still have a chance to "snatch" a piece of summer, despite the fact that some travel agents will insist that most popular resorts are no longer bathing season. Indeed, lying on the beach until 21:00, as at the end of June, will no longer work, but, on the other hand, other bonuses will be available to you: no queues at museums, a tolerable number of tourists and low prices not only for hotels, but even for food. Oh yeah, and after the holiday boom in August, airfare is finally getting back down to reasonable prices. So feel free to plan your autumn holidays according to the summer scenario, and we have prepared 6 places where it is still warm and cool in September-October.

Sicily, Italy

Aug 17, 2016 at 9:18 AM PDT

Until mid-October, the sea off the coast of Sicily is still warm, and the number of vacationers on the beach is only decreasing every week. Even longer warm water keeps in bays - for example, in the fishing village of Cefalu near Palermo (by the way, it is also a balneological resort) and in the shallow waters of the bay near Isola Bella in Taormina. Sicily, among other things, can also be safely considered as a gastronomic destination and not a bit upset that at the end of your vacation you will spend more time in restaurants than on the beach. Here, even festivals are dedicated to food more often than art: until September 18, for example, the festival of ice cream and sorbets will last, and until the 30th - couscous and African cuisine.

Approximate cost of a flight on the route Moscow - Palermo - Moscow in October: from 20 900 rub.

Faro, Portugal

Sep 14 2016 at 3:57 PDT

In Lisbon, warm weather lasts for three autumn months, but cold winds blow even in August, so if your goal is not to see enough of the painted tile houses and intricately curved streets, but to lie on the beach and taste seafood, then it is better to keep the course right away to the south of the country, to Faro or Albufeira. In their vicinity are the most beautiful and extremely calm for the Atlantic (sorry, surfers!) beaches - Marinha and Falesia. The first is surrounded by rocks like those painted by Monet, and the second is surrounded by beige-green hills that seem to recede from the coast to make the beach spacious and wide. If you do not want to take a car to look for secluded bays, then rent a boat for a few hours to view the Martian red-orange landscapes of these places from the water.

Approximate cost of a flight on the route Moscow - Faro - Moscow in October: from 28 400 rub.

Dubrovnik, Croatia

Sep 12 2016 at 10:57 PDT

September and October in Dubrovnik is the real velvet season, when the water temperature does not drop below 21 degrees, and the air is stable somewhere between 25 and 28. Perhaps, you can’t imagine the best time for leisurely walks along the deserted streets of the Old Town. Bernard Shaw adored Dubrovnik and considered it the embodiment of greatness and peace on earth, and these words are certainly not about Dubrovnik in August. Expect that in September and October there will be no more crowds on the fortress wall and at the Prince's Palace, and you can linger at any attraction (and there are dozens of them in one of the most beautiful cities in Europe according to UNESCO!), And then intentionally get lost in the streets, where the locals live and catch yourself photographing shutters and flowers for the hundredth time. One day will not be enough to explore the city, but the beaches are worth the time. There is a good city beach near the Ploce gate, but it is certainly not as beautiful as the truly Mediterranean postcard beaches on the islands of Lopud and Lokrum.

Approximate cost of a flight on the route Moscow - Dubrovnik - Moscow in October: from 15 800 rub.

Dubai, UAE

Sep 13, 2016 at 6:21 AM PDT

In Dubai, you can feel like a child whose parents, for good grades, decided to arrange an unforgettable vacation with all possible entertainment - from helicopter flights and skiing to aquariums with zoos. In autumn, in October, it doesn’t even smell here, and the temperature drops to a more “comfortable” +35 during the day. Expect that the contrast with water +25 degrees will be noticeable, and it is better to spend the hottest hours in cozy hookahs, in spice markets or in shopping malls. The latter is dangerous, because you can leave already at sunset and not even notice how time has flown by.

Approximate cost of a flight on the route Moscow - Dubai - Moscow in October: from 11 500 rub.

Tenerife, Spain

Aug 30, 2016 at 3:50 AM PDT

On canary islands the so-called “eternal summer” triumphs, but for some reason everyone rushes there en masse in August, including the Spaniards themselves, for whom the Canarian heat seems more comfortable than Barcelona or Andalusia. In order to fully explore the island, you will need a car, although without it on buses you can cover the three most interesting points of the island – Teide volcano, Los Gigantes bay and the former capital of La Laguna with indescribable colonial charm. A car will also come in handy to discover all the colors of the island's beaches. – from snow-white Las Teresitas to black and black Las Arenas.

The approximate cost of a flight on the route Moscow - Tenerife - Moscow in October: from 26 000 rub.

Tel Aviv, Israel

Sep 3, 2016 at 12:30 pm PDT

Even if we didn’t remind you of Israel in this review, you would still guess - after all, this country is very popular among our tourists not only as a pilgrimage destination, but also as beach resort. At the end of September, you can still count on a "warm welcome" from the Mediterranean Tel Aviv, but at the end of October, it is already better to choose Eilat on the Red Sea for a beach holiday. These two places are completely different from each other (however, like all cities in Israel), and it’s difficult to stop at just one, but if you love Barcelona, ​​then you will definitely like Tel Aviv, and if you miss Egypt, then Eilat will closer. The charm of the latter is in a measured rest right on the shore, diving and the opportunity to get to Petra, but Tel Aviv is not going to be a resort for the sake of tourists at all, but here you will find perhaps the best restaurants of Israeli cuisine, stylish bars, discos with high-quality music and even a piece of surf culture.

The approximate cost of a flight on the route Moscow - Tel Aviv - Moscow in October: from 30 700 rub.
