1. Hvar Island, Croatia
This is the perfect island vacation spot. Hvar Island is the sunniest island in Croatia and one of the most stunningly beautiful islands in the whole world. It offers gorgeous beaches with crystal clear water, unique culture, fun activities, and so much more.
Best Time to Visit: If you want to visit when the weather is sunny and perfect, then make sure you book your trip between May and September. July and August are the peak times and will be the most expensive and crowded. The biggest and best events typically occur from April to August. Keeping this all in mind, we believe the best months to go are May, June and September. September is the cheapest and least crowded of the three months, but there is more to do from May to June.

Best Time to Visit: The weather in Budapest tends to be fairly mild year-round, but it can get to the upper 80s in the summer.
