Where to relax by the sea in winter

Turkey and Egypt are crowded with tourists all winter long, Bali and the Dominican Republic are expensive, and Tanzania is a long way to fly. For those who want to try new destinations for a beach vacation, OBOZREVATEL has selected 3 unobvious but very interesting countries.

Kenya

The warm African country is just beginning to develop tourism, but many people are already choosing it for vacation. Good service, incredible nature, and the relative desertification of some beaches make the resort attractive to many travelers.

Mombasa is the most popular vacation destination. It is one of the three largest in Kenya and has an interesting architecture. The resort is located along the snow-white coastline of the Indian Ocean and has many quiet beaches. The biggest entertainment in the city is safaris. However, there is another interesting attraction - a hot air balloon flight over the dense jungle.

For a family vacation, Malindi is the best choice. This popular resort is famous for its convenient infrastructure and a large number of hotels and restaurants. The sea here is always calm, as it is protected from large waves by a number of coral reefs. The city itself will amaze you with its abundance of greenery and huge jasmine gardens that are everywhere.

Diving enthusiasts stay in Watamu. The underwater world in this area is full of different species of fish that swim among the coral reefs. If you are afraid to dive underwater, you will be offered a tour on a boat with a transparent bottom. During such a walk you can see whale sharks, stingrays and moray eels.

Vietnam

Tours to Vietnam will surprise both lovers of noisy parties and connoisseurs of a relaxing vacation. Besides, it is one of the cheapest destinations for beach tourism. However, you should prepare for the trip seriously.

Some resorts in the country experience heavy rains and winds in the fall and winter. This applies to the popular city of Nha Trang. The sea is also muddy and rough in December in the oil center of Vietnam - Vung Tau.

Phu Quoc Island is the best place to spend your vacation during this period. The temperature here reaches 30 degrees in winter and the water is warm and without high waves. You can also have a good time in Mui Ne and Phan Thiet. However, surfers and windsurfers are better off going here, as the sea in these cities is very rough in winter.

If you are interested in interesting excursions, parties and budget shopping, then choose Ho Chi Minh City for your vacation. The beaches here are much worse than in other regions of the country, but there is much more entertainment.

China

Of course, people come to this country to see densely populated cities with tall skyscrapers and ancient temples, nature reserves with rare animals, and to try the wonders of traditional medicine. However, few people know that there is a comfortable resort on one of the local islands.

Hainan is the largest health region in China. Officials who were guilty of something used to be sent here. Today, tens of thousands of tourists vacation here on a regular basis. There are thermal springs with healing mud on one side of the island, and the rest of the territory is washed by the warm waters of the South China Sea.

In early December, the rainy season ends in Hainan. However, there are still many cloudy days. Although the air temperature does not drop below 25 degrees, you are unlikely to sunbathe in the sun. It gets warmer in January, and the peak season on the island is in February.

The most popular local resorts are Haikou and Sanya. There are interesting tourist attractions and many hotels and health centers. By the way, Haikou is the capital of Hainan. There are many historical sights here, and the Ma'an Ridge Volcanic Crater is located nearby.
