We vacationed in Portugal, Madeira, from 06/10/2023 to 06/23/2023. During the holiday, the average daytime air temperature was about +23 degrees. By evening the temperature dropped to +19 degrees, but this did not affect the quality of rest. We didn't experience any rain. The weather allowed us to explore the main directions of our trip: the garden of the Monte Palace, hiking in the mountains, the botanical gardens of Madeira, tasting the aromas of laurel and eucalyptus trees. The water temperature was about +21 degrees, which of course did not please, but was not entirely upsetting either, because... The main goal of our holiday was to get to know the country as much as possible and feel its uniqueness.
Weather reviews
We vacationed at the Belek resort in Turkey with our family in June 2023. This is the time to relax with small children; the weather at this time is always gorgeous, very warm, not hot. During the two weeks of vacation it never rained; in the evening for a couple of days it was a little cloudy and the child had to put on a warm blouse because there was a slight wind rising near the sea. The sun is quite active at this time, since the season in Turkey begins at the end of April, so be sure to not forget sun protection cream. In general, the weather is very comfortable, I advise you to go in June, like us, lovers of not very scorching suns.
Good day to all travel lovers))) I would like to share an unforgettable vacation in sunny and cloudy Turkey) we arrived in Istanbul early in the morning, and stepping off the plane we immediately felt this unforgettable cool breeze with the salty notes of the smell of the sea... Local merchants only just starting our morning routine, while we were heading towards the famous Bosphorus, the sun was glimmering on the shore through the thick branches of tall trees. We vacationed throughout June and it was memorable for the hot summer weather during the day and long warm evenings in the company of friends. I remember the inclined, rather narrow sidewalk lined with stones leading directly to the Sea of Marmara, in which, despite the heat, a cool sea breeze blew under the cries of seagulls...
The vacation was in mid-June, we decided to go to Turkey. We were very lucky with the weather! There was no intense heat, it rained only once, the sun shone the rest of the days. The sea had already warmed up well, and it was impossible to pull the child out of the water. We spent our entire vacation at sea, didn’t get sunburned, and got an even, beautiful tan. The only negative is the beach with pebbles, we wore special shoes so as not to cut our feet. But this did not spoil our holiday. It’s especially good in Kemer in the evening. It was nice to walk along the warm streets and breathe the clean mountain air.
I don’t like heat, so I always take vacations in winter. This time I was on vacation in Sochi in January. The average temperature this month is 10 degrees. But the weather is unpredictable. Now the cold wind, now the sun, now the sea breeze. There was also snowfall, but the snow melted right before our eyes. The nights are quite comfortable, 3-5 degrees, I never missed evening walks. The sea, of course, has not gone away, no one forbids breathing salty air, and swimming, of course, is forbidden. I haven’t seen any fans of hardening. Nature surprised me in January. Lots of greenery, I saw snowdrops. Prices, entertainment - much cheaper in January. Plane tickets were expensive.
For those who were unable to relax in the summer months, I would advise flying to northern Africa, to Egypt in September. One of the popular resorts is Hurghada, where I usually visit in early autumn. In September it is still quite hot, but the sun's activity is not the same as in summer and daylight hours are not yet as short as in winter. During the day the air temperature is approximately 30-35 degrees, there is no wind or rain. To avoid sunburn, I recommend not forgetting sunblock and light, long clothing to cover your body. It is also advisable to always have a bottle of water and a summer hat with you. The temperature in the Red Sea this month is especially good, there is no contrast with the shore, about 30 degrees. In the evening it is warm and very comfortable, calm and quiet.
I came with a friend to relax and recover at the Dead Sea. The weather was warm and comfortable for excursions, but with the sea everything was not so smooth. My friend liked the temperature of the water and swam every day, but I thought it was a bit cool for being in the water for a long time. So, I didn’t really get to enjoy the Dead Sea itself, although, of course, it is interesting as a unique natural object.
In Rhodes I got a lot of sun, fresh breeze and cool sea. I spent little time on the beach, but I took walks around the area in moderate temperatures of 20°C - 24°C. The sun shone, but did not burn. Of course, you can’t walk around in a chiffon dress in the evening, 16°C means spring in spring. There was absolutely no precipitation or humidity, it was easy to breathe. I was completely immersed in the atmosphere of the island at such a wonderful time.
I have traveled to Bali many times and have concluded that the best month to fly to the island is June. The weather is warm and one might say pleasantly hot in summer, but there is no feeling that this heat is unbearable. The water in the ocean and sea is heated by the Sun to the same temperature as the air temperature. You can swim, surf, and do other beach activities. Yes, and there are almost no days when it rains. During the entire month it rains literally several days a month.
In April, it turns out that the weather in Madeira is pleasantly warm, 18C - 21C. When the sun disappeared behind the horizon, it quickly got colder to 15C. In the evening, of course, you need to warm yourself up more. We took walks to the sea just to relax and take beautiful photos. And some especially brave individuals made swims, although, naturally, the water was cold. And I almost forgot, the rains didn’t bother me, I frowned several times, but just like that, two drops fell.
