Enjoy the warmth of the European sun, whilst it begins to cool down in the UK, and explore a host of destinations once the peak summer tourists have all packed up and gone. If you’re yearning for adventure and a total change of scene, the vast continent of Africa is calling.
The Algarve
The holidaying families have all returned home, and the weather continues to be glorious, with the temperature in the high 20s. The beaches will be emptier, as will the golf courses and the restaurants. Enjoy clifftop walks, historic towns and the wetlands and nature reserves along the coast.

Greece
The Ionian and Aegean seas are at their warmest in September, so whether you’re sailing, mainland or island based, you’ll enjoy delightful temperatures. Combine a night or two in Athens, discovering its café culture and remarkable history, then head for a beach and revel in wonderful Greek hospitality.

Rome
In late summer, the Eternal City is one of Europe’s loveliest cities to visit. The menus in the trattorias begin to fill with foraged mushrooms, wild game and fresh truffles, whilst the ancient piazze and streets empty out. And the climate starts to cool, making it all the better to see the major sites. Rent a scooter and explore, or take a boat trip on the Tiber.

Seychelles
Even though it’s the shoulder season in the Seychelles, you’ll find balmy days before the rainy season begins, made comfortable by cooling trade winds, and perfect sea temperatures. These ideal conditions make for spending indulgent days on the beach, diving, snorkeling and exploring your tropical surroundings.

Croatia Sailing
Once the peak summer crowds have dispersed, it’s time to jump on a boat and sail along the Adriatic coast. Sailors will tell you that it’s an ideal time, with the conditions near perfect, and you’ll also have no trouble finding a mooring. The quay and beachside tavernas will also always be able to find you a table.

Spain
Head down to the Andalucian coast for a relaxed few days in the September sun. The beach clubs are still buzzing and the air is warm. Play some tennis or a round of golf, or explore the evocative towns and cities of Ronda, Seville and Cordoba.

Zambia
It’s the middle of the dry season here, where game is drawn to the rivers of South Luangwa and the Lower Zambezi, making viewing quite exceptional. Stay for a few days in a bush camp here and witness the migration of Carmine Bee Eaters – a highly coloured bird endemic to sub-Saharan Africa.

Mozambique
With temperatures in the high 20s and sun from morning til night, September is an ideal time to visit these Indian Ocean shores. The diving and snorkeling is excellent at this time of year, and a trip to Two Mile Reef will reward you with vibrantly coloured fish, reef sharks, moray eels and turtles. Go deeper and you may spot sailfish, marlin and humpback whales. The beaches of the Bazaruto Archipelago are particularly appealing right now.

South Africa
Head for Sabi Sands in the Kruger National Park, where game viewing is at its best, thanks to the dry season. Whilst down in Hermanus, take a boat out onto the ocean to witness the migration of the Southern Right Whales. Spring is well and truly on its way, with the blossom coming out along the Garden Route. It’s absolutely possible to combine all of this in one trip.
