We show you where you can pack your suitcase in the last winter month. What are the hottest beach resorts in February?

If your vacation is at the end of winter, rejoice! A beach holiday in February has many advantages. In addition to the fact that in most warm countries the high season still reigns, tours abroad can be found within any budget. New Year's and Christmas excitement has already subsided.

When is the weekend there? On Defender of the Fatherland Day 2021, we rest like this: from February 21 to 23, inclusive.

Which countries are open? Please note that in the article we talk in general about the directions where it is warm in February and where you can swim.

Right now, the following are open for Russians and they can fly freely:

  • Tanzania,
  • Maldives,
  • UAE (yes, in winter you can warm up here),
  • Cuba
  • Egypt
  • and Turkey - except for her, it is warm everywhere for a February holiday.

We are looking for inexpensive travel deals online - without extra charges from travel agencies - using services that compare offers from all tour operators at once:

  • Travelata

  • Level.Travel
  • Onlinetours

We use the first two in case of early booking, and we turn to the last one for last minute tours. We study, choose the option we like and book right there, because, as a rule, postponing for the next day, the “tasty” price will no longer be found.

Where to go inexpensively? TOP 5 best destinations

We arrived at the rice plantations in Bali

Where to fly to the sea in February is inexpensive is a topical question for many travelers. You can save on the voucher either by waiting for the last minute offer, or by choosing an initially budget place for a vacation abroad.

We analyzed the prices for tours and the cost of the stay in different countries, noted the reviews and advice of tourists and made the top 5 best resorts.

  • Thailand is a typically "Russian" winter destination. First, the most developed and adapted to Russian citizens. Secondly, without a visa. And thirdly, it offers the best beach holiday in February in terms of price / condition ratio. Even in high season, the receipt for food and excursions is much lower than in other countries.
  • North Goa is the cheapest resort. In February, young people flock to the sea here - for parties and informal surroundings, nature full of palm trees and sand, and very cheap housing. You can see the rating of tour operators in Goa.
  • Bali is pleasantly economical in living. After our wintering, we made a price survey earlier. In addition, the period of our winter on the island is considered a low season, and air tickets, traditionally "eating up" a decent part of the money, come out in a smaller amount.
  • Emirates are distinguished by their democratic package vacations. Although the resort is included in the list of countries where it is warm in February, the sea will have to be admired exclusively from the shore, and swims will be arranged in the heated pool at the hotel. This is the reason for the low price tag for vouchers.
  • Vietnam is ideal for a 10 day vacation. For example, it is possible to celebrate February 23 inexpensively in Nha Trang, Phan Thiet and Fukuoka - the tour, food, and transport will cost a budget.

Zanzibar in February

Zanzibar, Nungwi beach

New, not yet "hackneyed", winter destination: tours to Zanzibar. The reviews of those who have visited the mysterious island, known primarily for the fairy tale about Aibolit, boil down to the following:

  • you can relax relatively inexpensively, but, moreover, the landscapes and atmosphere are somewhat reminiscent of the Maldives
  • the beaches are deserted and infinitely beautiful
  • the island has a rich historical heritage that has been preserved in the streets of the capital, and wandering around them is an exciting activity

Cons:

  • the local cuisine will surprise you with nothing - rice, legumes, chicken. Maybe a banana floating in a fish soup (by the way, really tasty!)
  • poorly developed infrastructure
  • strong ocean ebb

Zanzibar in February welcomes anyone looking to sunbathe and swim in privacy, and the weather is favorable for this:

  • daytime: + 31 ° C ... + 33 ° C
  • at night: + 24 ° C ... + 25 ° C
  • water: + 28 ° C

Prices for a beach vacation in February 2021 in Zanzibar from a tour operator start at 130,000 rubles for two for 10 nights.

Thailand

Photo from our trip to Phuket Island, Thailand (South side)

Thailand - this is beaches with white sand, spreading palms, blooming exotic plants and a rich excursion program. The honeymoon will turn out to be unbeatable if you take a tour for two to Phuket in February, closer to the middle. On the 14th - European Valentine's Day - Thais arrange unusual wedding ceremonies.

A serene beach kingdom can be organized on the islands - Koh Samui, Phangan, Phi Phi, which are greeted with lush greenery. In season, you will be able not only to taste exotic fruits ripening towards the end of winter, but also to fully enjoy the calm turquoise waters of the Andaman Sea and the hot sun.

In addition to Pattaya and Phuket, Krabi province is ready to receive guests in Thailand in February. Holidays at this resort will not be overshadowed by even a short rain, and it is very popular with families with children.

The weather is comfortable, the sea is hot (the water temperature along the entire coast is + 28 ° С). The only negative is the influx of tourists. But the gorgeous weather conditions are worth planning your trip exactly for this time.

  • Prices for tours to Thailand in February 2021 start at 75,000 rubles for two for 10 days

Vietnam

Where to go in early February? Vietnam, for example, offers to spend frosty days on its fine sandy coast. If you are looking for the best place to sunbathe and swim, definitely go to the south of the country: tours to Nha Trang, Phan Thiet and Phu Quoc are ideal for these purposes. The reviews that tourists who visited Vietnam in February leave are unanimous: this time is great for traveling.

The month belongs to the dry season, so the weather is good. Rains are unlikely, and if they do, it will not last long. The sea in winter is most often calm, warming up to + 26 ° С… + 28 ° С.

Prices for vouchers at the end of the month are among the highest, but there is always the opportunity to find a last minute tour. If you are planning a trip on your own, book your flights in advance. We usually buy them six months in advance, but in the case of Vietnam, we remind you that it is better to give preference to the tour, becauseits cost may be equal to the flight. It is better to buy online, before that you can familiarize yourself with the list of tour operators in the country.

Vacation in Vietnam in recent years is gaining more and more popularity among Russians - now you can get to Phu Quoc Island by direct flight. In a separate article, we compared which is better - Vietnam or Thailand?

  • A trip to Vietnam in February will be released from 75,000 rubles with accommodation in a 3 * hotel for two for 10 nights

Goa

India, Gokarna

Holidays on the warm sea in February can be organized in Goa. Moreover, it is very budgetary - India is one of the cheapest countries in Asia, although not the most developed.

Inexpensive vacations are more typical for the northern part of the state. North Goa attracts mainly young and perky, because you can live here for mere pennies, especially in terms of hotels, and have fun - to the fullest.

South Goa is somewhat retired. Hotels here are of a higher class, respectively, and service too, but life outside their walls is completely absent. Visitors have at their disposal a beautiful sea, cozy beaches and silence. Prices for vouchers to the southern resort are always slightly higher than to the northern one.

  • Tours from Moscow to Goa in February 2021 for two people cost from 60,000 rubles for 9 nights. Visa - $ 25 per person

Bali

You can have an inexpensive winter vacation in Bali without a visa. In February, prices go down: the high season is over and the flow yogi vegan hipsters tourists subsides.

Of course, most of the people fly to the island on their own. It is rare for a voucher, but they are still sold in sufficient volume. Instructions on how to save as much money as possible on your flights: 1) Choose non-season dates (which makes February ideal) and indirect flights (for example, with a connection in Thailand or Kuala Lumpur).

The last month of winter is suitable for those who do not like extreme heat. The element is changeable: it rains, and quite often. The day usually starts with a bright sun, and continues in the afternoon with rain. But the sunsets are excellent every time, regardless of the weather conditions. Such, indeed, can not be seen anywhere else!

UAE

Beach in Ras al-Khaimah (we swam there even at the beginning of February)

Where else can you fly to the sea in February without a visa? The cancellation of the document to enter the Emirates has greatly simplified travel for Russians. Now it is convenient to catch hot tours - without visa problems.

The weather in the UAE in February will appeal to those who avoid scorching rays and stuffiness - + 24 ° С are comfortable for excursions and walks around the city, and the country is rich in sights. However, the conditions will not please those who are eager to take a dip. The water temperature in the sea is not enough for swimming, but heating saves in the pools near the hotel.

Tours to the UAE in February 2021 are recommended for shopping lovers: this month is the season of sales, and the closer to its end, the more discounts become. So, if you want not only to sunbathe, but also to skimp well, postpone your search for a tour until the last days of winter.

  • Tours in February will cost inexpensively to Dubai, Sharjah and Ras al-Khaimah - only 45,000 rubles for two for 7 days

Where else can you relax abroad in February?

View of Barcelona from the "Bunker" - of course you don't buy there at this time,
just very beautiful 🙂

For those who have not yet decided where to go to the sea in February, we offer the following interesting countries for a beach holiday in 2021.

For travelers, destinations to any part of the world are open: mysterious Africa, exotic Asia, festive South America ("is it generally safe there?"). Despite the remoteness and traditionally expensive tours, there is always a chance to buy a cheap last-minute tour and come off even on an all-inclusive budget!

Mexico

Everything you need to know about a vacation in Mexico, I told in our guides: in Cancun and in Mexico in general, and here I will say the following:

  • In resort Mexico, the fabulous Caribbean Sea of ​​all shades of blue is very beautiful, the very one on which you want to meditate.
  • You do not need a visa, but a couple of days before departure you need to issue an electronic permit (it is free).
  • We vacationed in Cancun (the most popular resort) in March and the weather was great - and February is even more "season" than March.
  • There are many all-inclusive hotels here - after all, this is Turkey for Americans and Canadians.

There is no need to look for cons, they are on the surface:

- Long flight - 12 hours, no less.
- Expensive rest, starting from the cost of the tour and ending with prices on the spot (they are plus or minus Moscow).
- Boring. There is nothing to see in Cancun itself, you have to go on excursions.

The weather, as I have already mentioned, is pleasant - in Mexico there is no such sticky humidity as in Asia, and in the evening you can even go out in jeans. But this does not negate the scorching sun from 10 in the morning, on which it is easy to burn out.

  • day: + 26 ° C ... + 28 ° C
  • at night: + 23 ° C ... + 25 ° C
  • water: + 26 ° C

How much does a tour to Mexico cost? From 130,000 rubles for 10 nights for two.
