Where to Go for September Sunshine

Although it is only January and the year has just begun, this is the time to book your September sunshine holiday. This is because September is one of the most popular months for holiday goers and holidays in September get booked up rapidly for a number of reasons. September is an optimum time to take a holiday in Europe; you dodge the peak season but can still soak up the sun. It’s not unbearably hot but still amply hot enough; you don’t pay peak prices and schools have returned so you’ll miss the crowds. What other time of year could offer such perfect conditions? Here, we’ve narrowed down some top spots to help you find the best places to holiday in September for the sun.

Greek Islands

With ideal temperatures in the mid-twenties, the Greek Islands are the ideal September getaway. You’ll be spoilt for choice with over two-hundred islands to pick from. If you’re looking for rustic nature and a relaxed atmosphere, try out Corfu. On the other hand, if stunning beaches are more your thing, head to Kos or the Ionian Islands; from Myrtos Beach in Kefalonia to Shipwreck Bay in Zante, you’ll have the choice of premium beaches. For history buffs, venture to Rhodes, while for the foodies, Crete is a must-see.

 

Malta

With temperatures rising to twenty-eight degrees Celsius, this tiny nation is brimming with medieval history and prehistory. September’s events help you feel part of the Maltese culture, with Independence Day and two triathlons taking place on the main streets. Picturesque beaches and crystal clear seas make Malta one of the best places to holiday in September for sun.

 

Balearic Islands

The three Balearic Islands couldn’t offer more variety. Ibiza is, of course, the party island; Majorca is brimming with lively resorts and energetic beaches, while Menorca is a serene paradise. During September, head to Ibiza to find the buzzing end of season parties, but also quieter beaches, yoga retreats and artisan markets. Menorca is rife with untouched breaches, while Majorca is a contrast of natural beauty and vibrant resorts.

 

Mainland Spain

With so much to offer, Spain has always been a favourite among holiday-makers. For the best sun, head to plush Marbella or alluringly traditional Nerja in the Costa del Sol. Meanwhile, where Spain meets France in Costa Brava, you’ll find unspoilt landscapes – rustic beaches, green clifftops and private coves. To the south, Benidorm in Costa Blanca is still full of life in the late season. Spend your days on the glistening strip of Levante Beach, followed by a stroll to Tapas Alley in the evenings.

 

The Algarve

Southern Portugal’s ultimate hotspot has everything you need in a holiday – brilliant beaches, fabulous food and captivating culture. With temperatures reaching twenty-seven degree Celsius, September is the prime time to sunbathe beneath the golden cliffs that line the coast. For the adventurers, water sports are rife, with kayaking, paddle boarding and surfing to choose from. Foodies can enjoy clam stew, griddled fish or juicy chicken. If you’re a culture lover, take the time to wander through the quaint fishing towns, such as Lagos and Albufeira, which are dotted along the coast.

 

Sorrento Area

Many holiday-makers might be familiar with the north of Italy but not many may have ventured too far to the south. The area of Sorrento wraps around the striking Bay of Naples. Look out for the picture-postcard town of Positano on the Almalfi Coast, where rainbow houses cascade down the cliffside. If history is your thing, the Sorrento area is home to endless points of interest, from the famous Pompeii and the town of Sorrento to the Marina Grande port and the Piazza Tasso square.

Some keen jet-setters like to book early in the year to have something to look forward to in the autumn months. With so many hot destinations to choose from, where will you head for the best place to holiday in September for sun?
