You put Egypt. There, of course, you can relax.

In one of the hotels in Sharm, you can even soak up
аватар moy_contakt
Honestly, in February in Egypt .... it's cold there, a short day, and in general. In February, you can treat yourself to a trip to Thailand, Sri Lanka, China (Hainan), Vietnam. I do not offer more expensive destinations - Dominican Republic, Cuba, Maldives.
аватар moy_contakt
I’ll add India (the state of GOA) here, but now this direction is not very budgetary, and a visa will cost a pretty penny .... The most accessible now is Hainan.
аватар ollennka
Yes, a lot of countries in South America and Southeast Asia, where in February you can lie down on the beach perfectly. I just propose to consider more expensive destinations: Malaysia, Indonesia (Bali), Cuba, Jamaica. I also recommend Vietnam and Sri Lanka with both hands.

If you chose Egypt, then the presence of a bay closed from the winds is mandatory. See the hotel location map carefully. A wetsuit is also required.

Advertising has gone)))) The tour company is not a guarantee that you will not have to worry, maybe TA is an intermediary and TO rules the ball !! He organizes the flight program, transfers, etc. And there can be a lot of surprises, ranging from small delays to many hours of sitting at the airport due to the postponement of the flight, about which they do not always consider it necessary to warn anyone or warned when nothing can be changed (if a person from another city goes to the airport ) .... ending with overbooking (well, this is when, upon arrival at the hotel, it suddenly turns out that they are not waiting for you here, because there are no free places and they are temporarily or for the entire period in a completely different hotel .... and you chose it so carefully, read reviews and get here.So dear sharapovayekaterina you are off topic.

It all depends on your budget!
аватар pasmor
If expensive options are not considered, then Egypt is quite suitable. For winter there is a completely windless bay. It's called "MAI" or something like that. Google it. There is nothing more windproof. Good luck.
аватар taran_natala
To be honest, I did not find Mai Bay.
аватар bodic1996
The bay is called Sharm El Maya. And last year in February we rested in Hadab, and swam and sunbathed, were very pleased. And we don't have wetsuits.
аватар ollennka
The author asked a question and froze))). But I wonder where she ends up going.
аватар taran_natala
For a long and high-quality snorkel, wetsuits will not interfere in the winter season.

you can soak up the sun and in the mountains, you will get a tan.

Yes, it's right to soak up, arrange a "summer" in February. Of course, there are many places. Not all of these exotic places are available and not all of them are suitable. Getting far, a lot of money costs... different reasons.
The most relevant is "summer" in Sharm el-Sheikh. It takes only 4 hours to fly, one of the most budget options. Yes, there will be wind, a short "beach" day, but still the feeling of "summer" will be present on vacation. Sharm El Sheikh is the best option.

lazy_person, I do not agree with you. You can fly to any direction I have mentioned on a very budget and not more expensive than Egypt, but there will be more heat, the sea is warmer. The only thing, of course, is the flight ... a long time, not always convenient, but everything can not be fine. China now turns out to be very cool at prices, Sri Lanka is also periodically offered at great prices (unlike China, I don’t monitor it because I don’t consider it, but prices slip, and they’re excellent). And Egypt in February .... well ... even in the most windless bay, the sea is cold, and until you try to dive into these voiced 22 degrees, it seems that the water seems to be warm, but not. Comfortable bathing there and does not smell.
аватар ollennka
The main thing is not to slide into a traditional holivar, the sea at what temperature is considered warm.
аватар moy_contakt
So, am I not right that it is much more comfortable to swim in water of 27-28 degrees (maybe higher, I didn’t measure it with a thermometer, but it feels like water is such that you won’t freeze in it at all) or 22 and no more (in Egypt in February on a higher temperature is definitely not worth counting). With all the consequences....

Can you imagine that the determining factor is not “more budgetary” and “not more expensive” for everyone? Yes, and by definition, a full-fledged trip (a good hotel) to Thailand cannot be "budget" and "no more expensive" than to Egypt. And to go to the other end of the planet, in order to be "budget" and "not more expensive" there, is it worth going there at all?
Egypt - only 4 hours and you are in an oasis hotel, everything is ready. The sea is clean (not like in China), though cooler, but better.
Egypt is a good option for "summer in winter".
аватар taran_natala
The undoubted advantage of the February holiday in Egypt will be the price. For a fairly reasonable price, you can take a very cool hotel.
аватар Vika284
Again about the water temperature, for whom it is more comfortable +27, and for whom + 22 is normal and comfortable, and for some +28 is too much.
аватар ollennka
lazy_person, +1. As if there are no other countries except Egypt...
аватар lazy_person
ollennka Do not get excited ... there are plenty of countries, and there is money ... but not everyone wants to trudge "for three nine Lands, to three tenth Kingdom." It's about this, don't you understand?
And about the temperature, I’ll say this ... I’ve been to Varadero in January. Sea +26, and air +22..23. It is not very comfortable to get out of the water to the shore, especially if there is a breeze. By the way, there are a lot of disgusting (stinging) jellyfish in winter.

lazy_person, we flew to Thailand for 1100 ye for 12 nights for breakfast, went to a very budget hotel that turned out to be in a chic place, excellent wi-fi (free), excellent rooms (I can give a link to the video) with a pool (which we never reached we got there, the sea was just gorgeous !!! further + food, without prejudice to anything, buying everything you wanted fruits and seafood for dinner, for lunch with local soups and noodles or rice with vegetables, chicken, salads (they gave all sorts of bonuses sweets so that we would get acquainted with their cuisine and understand what to order next time, and it all cost us another 300 ye (I repeat that we didn’t deny ourselves anything, massage came to me and my husband a day later), there are no excursions here I think that this is a separate, voluntary item of expenses. And now we are counting in Egypt even in February. Usually people go for 7 nights, we take not a super-budget shitty hotel, but such an average for a normal comfortable stay (although this is a matter of taste) and we consider. the calculation is lower, it didn’t fit here
аватар moy_contakt
for two for 7 nights the total amount is about 800 ue (I saw more budget, but unlike Taya, where I quietly took the hotel, which is second on the list in MOT, the condition of the rooms and everything else was just 5 points, excellent cleaning, bed changed every other day) in Egypt the hotel plays an important role and here you need to understand where you are going. Even if you count 800 / 7x12 = 1370 ue. opposite my 1,400 spent on Thailand. Now I look at China, and I have 1053 ue for 12 nights of breakfast. it's november two. So where is Egypt and where is China and Thailand ... it is clearly not 4 hours to fly there .....

I BELIEVE! And I do not argue! We went right. As long as you drive, you have to drive. My son flew to Boracay with three transfers. Now he has matured and no longer wants to travel so far.
аватар ollennka
lazy_person, in the sense?)) I, on the contrary, supported your idea about the fact that not everything is decided by the budget. You need to go according to the conduct of the heart, and not where the budget ones are.
аватар ollennka
"Now he has matured and no longer wants to travel so far." - Gold words! I also think that while age allows, you need to go on vacation far away, in adulthood you will want a lazy vacation somewhere closer.
аватар lazy_person
ollennka Here.. that's right. I would go to Gagra, sit in Gagripsha, smell the magnolias, look at Zhoekvara... ...nostalgia stuck. Yes, now it’s problematic from Kyiv, and it’s not clear how to apply for a visa?
аватар ollennka
lazy_person, there is always some kind of forbidden fruit, unfortunately... I would go to Turkmenistan or Saudi Arabia, but getting there is even more difficult than getting a visa to Abkhazia. There must be a dream in life, after all))).
