Each season delivers its own unique charm, from the heat of summer to the changing colors of fall and the cozy feeling of the holidays. But sometimes it’s fun to switch things up and escape the weather for a bit – especially in the peak of winter when the dark days and dreary skies start to trigger a bit of the blues. Discover 5 of our favorite warm weather destinations that will restore your vitamin D this upcoming season!
– THAILAND –
Thailand’s dry season occurs between November and March, meaning that U.S.-based travelers can easily escape the winter months to enjoy idyllic sunshiny resorts and thriving Thai cities. Imagine leaving rainy days behind for oceanfront relaxation, warm afternoons, and fresh seafood. In fact, Southeast Asia as a whole – The Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia, and beyond – is a great place to soak up rays during winter months, with the monsoon season long gone and bountiful tropical beaches ready to explore!

– AUSTRALIA –
With seasons that oppose those of the U.S., Australia enters their summer months just as we are entering our winter, making it a splendid destination for breaking away from the cold. While Australia can get quite hot in the peak of their summertime, its temperate coastlines are ideal during this timeframe. Discover the perfection of its eastern beaches, the warm nights of Uluru, and the refreshing waters that glisten above the Great Barrier Reef, while filling up on a sunshine refresher in the dead of American winter.

– FIJI –
Fiji is a year-round destination, perfect for visiting in every season.

December is one of the most delightful times to travel here due to its warmer climate matched with holiday events, markets, and music – even caroling! Because of its vibrant Bula culture and kid-friendly hospitality, this is a great place to bring the family for a unique Christmas experience in the sun.
