Where is the best place to vacation in the summer?
There is no such thing as the best place to go on vacation. Why? It is simple. Everyone is different. We all have different needs, desires, and wishes. Some people love hotter destinations, while others prefer to enjoy the spring-like time. Some people love beaches and the sun, while others love to hide in the shade of forest trees. In whichever group you fit in – one thing is for sure, we all love summer vacation days! Since I think the Balkan peninsula has everything – shade, beaches, forest, sun, rivers, lakes, and sea. I will make sure to share my top picks with you. I do not doubt that you will find at least one perfect spot for your summer getaway this year!
What should I do on summer vacation?
The most important thing you should do on your summer vacation is to rest and have fun. Everything else is optional. It would be great if you use warm summer days for some water activities and some fun in nature while the days are still warm and plants are at their full blooming power, but it is not necessary. Many summer activities involve less movement but not less enjoyment. Here are some of my suggestions for active and less active summer vacation:
Active summer vacation
– Kayaking
– Canyoning
– Rafting
– Swimming
– Hiking
– Fishing
Passive summer vacation
– Lake cruising
– River cruising
– Camping
– Glamping
