If you have been setting aside some savings to do some traveling this fall, you are in luck as far as locations are concerned. You have several good choices that will provide plenty of enjoyment, scenery and sunshine at the same time. Furthermore, autumn is a good time to travel more affordable because it is considered the off-season.
Visit the Islands
Many islands offer autumn sunshine and warmth. For example, the Canary Islands off the northwest coast of Africa have an average October temperature of 75 degrees Fahrenheit, which warms more than 900 miles of beaches. Activities you might want to do there include visiting Mount Teide, the third tallest volcano in the world, saltwater fishing and scuba diving.
Another good location off Africa in the Indian Ocean is the islands of Mauritius. At around 68 degrees Fahrenheit in the daytime and around 60 at night, it will be a little cooler there than in the Canaries, but that is still beautiful weather that some may prefer. If that is too cool for you, jump into the water in one of the lagoons where the temperature gets up to 80 degrees. These islands have won several awards for being top tourism destinations. Aside from the gorgeous scenery, people are attracted to the water sports, which include deep-sea fishing, skiing, submarine rides and surfing.
Perhaps the most favoured by tourists seeking economical autumn travel destinations is Hawaii. The average temperature in those islands during the months that are typically cooler in other regions is around 78 degrees. You don’t even have to be a world traveller to be familiar with the beauty of Hawaii. You’ve seen the pictures and footage in magazines and movies and on television. Stunning greenery and eye-catching lava flows decorate the islands that offer all the same water sports as the other aforementioned islands.
Head to the Mediterranean Basin
The lands around the Mediterranean Sea offer several great locations for discounted autumn travel to warm regions. Africa, Asia and Europe make up the basin. Good travel choices to the region include Cairo, the coast of Turkey, the Greek island of Crete, Jordan, north Cyprus and Sicily, to name just a few.
The temperatures in those vacation spots range from the mid to the upper 70s Fahrenheit in the fall. The Mediterranean offers you a choice of beaches or cities. Trips to this area are ideal because travellers can get very good price cuts during the last few months of the year at the end of the season.
As you can see, the problem is not having a place to go but narrowing it down to the most appealing to you. Of course, there is always next year too. By taking advantage of discount autumn travel rates, you might be able to take more than one trip during the last quarter of the year.
