The color of the water shimmers from turquoise near the coast to ultramarine on the horizon, and in combination with the lush green of the coast, it looks very beautiful.

Festivals and holidays in February

February is called the month of love all over the world - after all, Valentine's Day, the patron saint of all lovers, is celebrated on February 14. During the reign of Emperor Claudius, who, as you know, had a cruel disposition, the military could not get engaged and marry. But no one could forbid them to fall in love, and the soldiers, together with their beloved ones, found understanding from the priest Valentine, who secretly married them. When the emperor found out about such non-observance of the law, he ordered the arrest of Valentine and imprisonment. On February 14, the priest was beheaded. Much later he was canonized. To this day, the holiday of love is celebrated all over the world, and Valentine is considered the patron saint of lovers.

Brazilian Carnival

The most popular and advertised carnival in the world. More than 400 thousand tourists come here every year. The spectacle is really exciting: the city seems to be going crazy, songs are everywhere, incendiary samba, wine is pouring like a river. Carnival masks allow you to behave as your heart desires - and no one will judge you for kissing in the crowd and dancing on the sidewalks.

Europe

In Cologne, at the end of February, a women's holiday is where the real chaos is! All the men they met on the way to the city hall were cut off by the bellicose ladies. The Venice Carnival starts at the end of February. Tourists besiege Venice in all seasons, but many more people come to this significant sight. On the eve, a traditional beauty contest is held among Venetian girls. The opening of the carnival takes place in the city's main square in front of St. Mark's Cathedral and includes a parade of carnival masks and costumes. The next day, at the same place at noon, a traditional carnival pigeon is released into the sky: a mechanical bird will fly along a tightrope, signaling to the crowd that it is time for the regatta - smart gondoliers are waiting for spectators on the Grand Canal. Every day of the holiday is full of spectacular events, fireworks, costume performances.

Meanwhile, in Belgium, Shrovetide is taking place. One of the brightest Maslenitsa carnivals in the world takes place in the Belgian city of Binche. On the first day, a parade of carnival costumes takes place, followed by youth and culinary days - you can try unusual and tasty dishes right on the streets of the city.

Japan

Japan is also not far behind in terms of holidays. At the end of February, a grandiose flower show is held there - the orchid festival. All of Tokyo is filled with millions of orchids - a magnificent and beautiful sight. The winner of the competition is paid a very significant monetary bonus, so it is not only prestigious, but also profitable to participate in the festival.

In mid-February, guests of Japan can be lucky enough to see an unusual show - the Festival of Nudity, which has a thousand-year tradition and marks the beginning of a new lunar year. Naked Japanese, covered only with a loincloth, warm themselves with sake and participate in the lottery, with the help of which the Divine Man will be determined. After the winner is chosen, real turmoil begins - a touch of the Divine, according to legend, brings happiness, so everyone seeks to touch the lucky one, and given that there are a lot of people going to the festival, one can imagine what a bunch of small things that come out of this venture.

February is far from the most popular month for traveling to other countries, because the New Year and school holidays are over, and summer is not going to come yet. But do not despair, because the crowds of annoying tourists managed to leave the beaches, and the prices in the last winter month are very economical. Some tourists go to explore Asia, others travel to European countries.

Snowy and cold February drives the inhabitants of our countries to hot regions, to the seashore or ocean. If you decide to go to it is worth carefully considering the region to visit. After all, the weather will directly depend on the region of the country. Experts advise buying vouchers to the southeastern regions or nearby islands. An excellent choice would be or.

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 - 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 familiarize yourself with
  • Bali is pleasantly economical in living. After our wintering in 2018, we made up 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 perfect for a 10 day vacation. For example, you can celebrate February 23 inexpensively in Nha Trang, Phan Thiet and Fukuoka - the tour, food, and transport will cost a budget.

Thailand

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

Thailand - this is beaches with white sand, spreading palm trees, 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. During the 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.

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 tours at the end of the month are some of 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, because its cost may be equal to the flight. It is better to buy online, before that you can familiarize yourself with 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 2020 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. Prices drop in February as the high season is over, and the flow of yogi-vegan hipster tourists is dwindling.

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 flight: 1) Choose non-seasonal 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 abolition of the document to enter the Emirates in 2017 made travel much easier 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 2020 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.
