But first, let's list the countries Where you shouldn't go on vacation in September:
In Bulgaria beach season closes by September 10 (but you can choose a balneological resort for recovery).
While in the south of Croatia you can still swim until mid-September, in the north it is no longer comfortable. It’s better to go to Southeast Asia from the end of October, it’s not worth it earlier - it’s the rainy season there.

Beach holiday at sea

Those who cannot stand the heat can breathe a sigh of relief - hurray, velvet season! In general, everything looks like August, but the hot air has been replaced by warm autumn sun. Temperatures rarely rise above 30°C. Until September 20, all resorts in Europe are open to you. And this best time for recreation with preschool children.

Features of a beach holiday in September:
- in countries where the beach season ends, prices for accommodation, food and entertainment fall;
- there are fewer people on the beaches, you don’t have to push between groups of people in the sea;
- you can spend more time in the sun without fear of unpleasant consequences.

Weather conditions, which must be taken into account when planning a beach holiday in September.
The Black Sea is cooling faster, somewhere after September 15 - and at the end of the month it will already be cold in the resorts of Bulgaria and Romania.
The Mediterranean Sea will still be quite warm until the end of September (average temperature +26°C).
In the south of Europe - in Spain, Italy, Greece - it is quite possible to swim even in cloudy weather. And you will certainly have at least a couple of cloudy days; at the end of September the rains begin.
The northern coast of Italy and Croatia are even cooler. For a trip with children, it is better to choose more southern resorts.

If you want warmth that turns into October, Israel, Terife, Jordan, and Morocco are waiting for you.

The beach season ends in September in Greece, Cyprus, Spain, Tunisia, Bali.

Greece

If you have a choice, it is better to come to Greece with children in September, when the summer heat subsides. And it’s better to go to Crete - the small islands are blown more by winds, and therefore it’s cooler there.

September in Greece is a wonderful time when you can enjoy a beach holiday, sightseeing, and gastronomic tourism all at once.
On September 8, Greece celebrates the Nativity of the Virgin Mary (revered as an important Orthodox holiday), and the Day of the Battle of Spetses between Greek rebels and the Ottoman Empire (1822). In Spetses Bay there is a re-enactment of the battle, fireworks, and then you can take part in the festive feast.

Of the interesting events in September, the most significant are the Corfu Arts Festival - (exhibitions, performances, concerts) and the International Fair in Thessaloniki (advances of modern technology).

Cyprus

In September there are fewer vacationers, prices are lower, but the entertainment is the same: diving, windsurfing, clubs, discos, attractions, restaurants, a huge water park. Cyprus is a resort both for youth parties and for families with children.

Until September 15, let's sunbathe - the sandy beaches of Cyprus are very clean, many are marked with the EU Blue Benefit. Air temperature 28-31°C, water temperature 26°C and minimal chance of precipitation.

And then you can devote time to excursions - you will have time to do everything. There's not much here historical monuments, these are mainly Orthodox churches of the Middle Ages. But there are enough picturesque corners (although there is not much greenery on the island): for example, the legendary bay where Aphrodite emerged from the foam of the sea.

And, of course, holidays!
At the beginning of September, you will also find the most interesting Grape Festival - a wine festival in Limassol: you can taste the best Cypriot wines (including homemade ones), and take part in their production yourself (yes, stomp grapes in a vat).

And also:
- Ice cream festival in Nicosia;
- Arts Festival takes place in Ayia Napa (3 days of exhibitions, artisan shops and goodies);
- Cyprus stage of the World Rally Championship;

Spain

At the beginning of September there is still full summer here with a guarantee of a tan, but without heat and stuffiness.
But by the end of the month the water becomes colder and only northerners will be able to swim.
Let us remind you that there are several resort areas in Spain:
· continental (Barcelona, ​​Costa Blanca, Costa del Sol, Costa de la Luz, Costa Brava, Costa Dorada) – it often gets cold here in the second half of September and it starts raining.
· Island (Tenerife (northern part of the island), Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, located in the Canary Islands in the Atlantic, as well as Ibiza and Mallorca on Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean) - a cold current also comes here at the end of September.

Explaining what Burning Man is is long and useless. If you don’t know, take a look at the section for beginners on the official website.

Lovers budget holiday they know that it is better to go on vacation in September, when the weather is milder and prices are lower.

In Europe, for example, you can actually often find great holiday deals in cities where the best weather occurs right at the end of summer. On the other hand, in America at this time of year there are much fewer good deals, and in Southeast Asia, which is considered a Mecca for budget holidays, the rainy season is just beginning. At the same time, it is in September that airlines reduce prices for flights, hotels and hostels become cheaper and more accessible for booking, so if your vacation falls during this season, that’s great. To make your vacation even better and more affordable, we offer you our selection of the best cities to travel in September.

Pokhara, Nepal

In the first half of September in Pokhara It can be quite rainy and foggy, but the second half of the month is the best time of the year to visit this mountain tourism paradise. As a rule, there are only four months in a year with good weather, late September is similar to October, there are fewer vacationers at this time, and prices are reduced.
There are so many hotels in the city that finding a room, even in the high season, is not difficult, especially in the off-season, when you can choose the best and cheapest option from a variety. Food and drink are inexpensive throughout the year, so Pokhara can be a good place to holiday at this time of year.

Daily budget = 500 rubles

Krakow, Poland

Of course, it would be a stretch to say that the weather in Krakow in September is excellent, especially in the second half of the month, but in largest city Poland is still very good, and there are incomparably fewer tourists than in August.
Krakow is located far from the sea and is cold here for 5-6 months of the year, so it is worth coming here during the warm season. But it's still one of the cheapest and most charming cities in Europe, and is becoming a popular destination for stag parties (!) and the like, so if you're in the area, be sure to stop by, at least for a little while.

Daily budget = 850 rubles

Amman, Jordan

In July and August, Jordan experiences scorching heat, but already at the beginning of September the temperature begins to drop and the weather becomes comfortable, especially at night. In addition, at this time of year it almost never rains in Jordan, so you can go on excursions or spend the whole day on the beach with complete peace of mind.
Although Amman is usually only a starting point for further travel to Wadi Rum And Petru, it remains one of the best cities in the Middle East for tourists on a budget. Prices for hotel rooms are very affordable, especially in 3* hotels, but the high season begins in September, so make your reservations in advance.

Daily budget = 930 rubles

Beijing, China

Oddly enough, during the height of summer Beijing is very hot, very rainy and very dirty, so if you don't want to experience any of the above, the ideal time to visit would be September. The days are warm, the nights are pleasant, and there is very little rain at this time.
Beijing is a very affordable city for a holiday, despite the fact that it is among the most expensive cities in this part of Asia. Hotels will generally be better than what you'll find in Southeast Asia, and food in the Chinese capital is incredibly cheap. Many people travel here on package tours; obtaining a visa on your own can be challenging, but if you travel to China individually, you will find an excellent combination of price and quality here.

Daily budget = 950 rubles

Fes, Morocco

In Marrakech, located not far from here, it is hot weather, but in Fez, on the contrary, it is very comfortable and pleasant to relax. If you are planning a holiday in Morocco for at least two weeks, then you may want to visit both of these cities, and maybe even prefer to relax at one of the new beach resorts in Morocco.
Fez and Marrakech are very similar to each other, so it would probably be best to stay longer in one city than to visit both, and since the weather in Fez at this time is much better than in Marrakech, there are problems with choosing shouldn't. Room rates are low here in September, so most likely you can affordably rent a room in a good hotel in the New Town area.

Daily budget = 1050 rubles

Athens, Greece

A trip to the scorching heat of Athens in the heat of summer is quite a bold decision, so it would be prudent to go here in September, even though the city will still be flooded with vacationers and hotel room prices will remain at the highest level. The weather in September, especially in the second half of the month, is very pleasant, both day and night, and there will still be fewer tourists than in August.
Since Athens can be completely explored in just a few days, many tourists complement their trip here with a holiday on one of the islands. The weather on the islands in September is also wonderful, prices and the number of tourists are declining, so we recommend a combined trip. In addition, getting to any of the islands is as easy as shelling pears: you can take a ferry right in the center of Athens and go somewhere on.

For most, September is the time to get back to work, but in some areas this month is the peak of the “velvet season”. Basically, there is a decline in the tourist flow to hot countries, but this does not cancel beach holidays. In many resorts, the sea is only warming up by the first month of autumn, and prices, on the contrary, are falling. In this publication we will take a closer look at where it is better to relax in September.

Holidays at sea in September 2019
