The 3 best places to travel in June 2019

From “The 3 best places to travel every month of 2019” – Business Insider

By Mark Abadi

Over the course of 2018, I’ve compiled Business Insider’s “ Best Places to Visit” series, highlighting 13 destinations that are best for holiday travel for every month of the year.

Business Insider considered everything from airfare trends and climate data to local cultural events to determine the optimal month to travel to each destination. February, for example, offers the cheapest airfare to Hawaii, with November coming in a close second.

June — Anchorage, Alaska

What we said: “Summer solstice in Anchorage on June 21 is one event you do not want to miss.

“That’s when residents of Alaska’s biggest city celebrate the longest day of the year, and party with music, food, and entertainment underneath the midnight sun.

“Being the northernmost major city in the US, Anchorage allows a cool breath of fresh air for a summer vacation. You can expect temperatures to hover in the 50s and low 60s, which is close to as warm as it gets for most places in Alaska. You’ll have more than 18 hours of sunlight a day, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the wildlife and picturesque scenery.”

June — Reykjavik, Iceland

What we said: “Chilly Iceland is enjoying its moment in the sun as a tourism hotspot, and you should pounce on the opportunity to visit this summer.

“If Anchorage’s midnight sun isn’t extreme enough for you, then head to the Westfjords at Iceland’s northwestern tip — you can expect a full 24 hours of sunlight on June 21.

“Regardless of what part of the country you’re in, there are endless activities for you to do in June. Wildlife enthusiasts can enjoy the best time of the year for whale and puffin sightings. Breathtaking views of mountains, glaciers, and hot pools provide a backdrop for all sorts of outdoors activities, from nature treks to picnics.”

June — Dubrovnik, Croatia

What we said: “The awe-inspiring Croatian town of Dubrovnik on the Adriatic sea is ideal for a June getaway. Steeped in history, Dubrovnik’s old town offers enchanting walks along its limestone streets and ancient city walls.

“Temperatures climb up to the low 80s in June, and tourists can cool off with a swim at the Lokrum, a forested island right off the mainland.”
