Where to go to the sea in January 2020: beach holidays in warm countries
The first month of the year, January, is associated for all residents of our country with the new year, winter and cold weather. Do you want this tradition to be interrupted and January to become almost a summer month for you? Then let's talk about where to go on a beach holiday in January 2020, where it is warm, sunny and no snow, and inexpensive. There are many countries where beach holidays are in full swing in the middle of winter. They are scattered all over the world, and we will tell you about those where the sea is really warm and vacation will not be expensive.
Cuba or Dominican Republic- you decide.
If in one part of the world it is cold and frosty, then in another it is certainly dry and warm. Yes, we're talking about South America and countries such as Cuba and the Dominican Republic.
Which country should you go to? It all depends on your preferences and finances. Holidays in Cuba will be cheaper, after all, the country is not rich and here every tourist is pampered and cherished. On average, a night's stay in a hotel in Cuba costs from $10. But not everything is so simple, because the flight to Cuba is very long, so you will spend the bulk of the money on a plane ticket.
The flight to the Dominican Republic is also far away, and the ticket price will be about the same. But the vacation itself on the islands is more expensive. Hotels charge from $30 per night.
As you can see, the only differences here are in price, and then everything is approximately the same. For example, the weather is excellent both there and there. During the day the air warms up to +30 degrees and above. The nights are warm with an average temperature of +22 degrees. The water in the ocean is simply gorgeous for swimming and is +27 degrees. And near the coast, where it’s not so deep, it can even warm up to +32 degrees!
Nature is better in Cuba, since it is larger in area and there are not so many buildings. You will be able to visit the mountains, fields and plantations. And in the Maldives there are national parks and reserves where wild animals live. Tourists enjoy visiting safari and viewing animals at arm's length.
Hainan Island - China.
If you are afraid of a long flight, then you can find a warm place closer, for example, in neighboring China on the island of Hainan.
The temperature here is constant all year round and practically does not change. Therefore, Hainan has an unofficial name - eastern Hawaii.
In January you will find sunny weather with temperatures up to +34 degrees. There are no winds, the air is dry, but not scalding. Hainan is located in such a climatic zone that it is comfortable for everyone to be here: children, adults, and the elderly.
The water in the ocean is very pleasant and is about +28 degrees. In January, waters from the coasts of Thailand and other countries reach here South-East Asia. Therefore, in winter the waters here are especially warm.
Cambodia is their winter, like our summer.
There is an opinion that January is the coldest month in Cambodia. Yes it is. But if you consider that in January the average here is +28 degrees, then what is the temperature in the hottest month?
Tourists fly to the country in January to enjoy beach holiday. After all, +28 during the day and water +27 degrees are excellent conditions for relaxing on the beach. No rain, no wind, no stifling heat. Nothing will interfere with your holiday on the seashore. But if you listen to the advice of “experienced” tourists and visit Cambodia in spring or summer, then +38 during the day and +30 at night awaits you. Plus, there are winds, frequent rains and high humidity.
So you can and should fly to Cambodia in January. The pleasant mild climate of this country will help you have an unforgettable holiday and enjoy it to the fullest. If you want to save money, you should book your tour in advance, around October or November.
Indonesia is a great choice.
Tired of constant weather changes? Tired of checking the weather every time and seeing how it changes for the worse? Do you want to experience eternal summer in winter? Then your country is Indonesia!
It is not for nothing that Indonesia is called the land of eternal summer. The weather here is sunny and warm all year round. In January you will find excellent weather during the day up to +33 degrees. The nights are also warm and amount to +22 degrees. It rains in Indonesia during the first month of the year. They mainly cover the country's cities at night and are accompanied by thunder and lightning. But by morning there will be no more puddles. Since the high temperature will not allow them to stay on the ground for a long time.
The most famous resort in Indonesia is Bali. Up to 90% of all tourists come here. In January, near Bali, the water in the ocean will be +28 degrees. And the sunny hours during the day reach eight hours. So you can safely go to the beach and sunbathe.
