MARMARIS, TURKEY

A gorgeous backdrop of pine-clad mountains looms behind the seaside resort of Marmaris in southwest Turkey. 
Popular as a cruise ship and yacht port and with the British budget holiday crowd, Marmaris offers an abundance of fast food restaurants, the restored castle of Suleyman the Magnificent and an appealing cobblestoned old quarter.

 Outside the busy town, coves and bays of the Datça Peninsula make lovely daytrip destinations for those travelling by boat.

PARIS


The city of lights, the city of love, a city of fashion—Paris draws millions of visitors every year with its unforgettable ambiance. 

Of course, the divine cuisine and vast art collections deserve some of the credit as well. 

The gentle RIVER SEINE rambles through the city, flanked by stately museums, centuries-old churches, and blocks of Rococo- and Noe-classic-design architecture, further enhanced by charming trees and glowing streetlamps. 

When to Visit Paris

The best time to visit Paris is from June to August, when the weather is just about parfait (perfect). Average highs are in the mid 70s and there are long days of sunshine. 

Unfortunately, summer is also the most crowded time—and the most expensive. 

For a significant drop in tourism, plan a trip in the fall or spring. To save some money on your flight and hotel, pack your most stylish heavy jacket (this is Paris, after all) and visit in the winter.

San Diego



Consistently sunny weather is what draws visitors to San Diego throughout the year: that and the mouthwatering cuisine, thriving nightlife and one of the country's favorite zoos. And then there are the beaches: As home of the U.S. Navy’s Pacific Fleet, San Diego has many top activities that revolve around the sea. Head to Mission Beach to soak up the rays, to La Jolla to catch a wave

When to Visit San Diego

The best times to visit San Diego are March through May and September through November. Because there aren't as many school breaks during these seasons, you're more likely to avoid the throngs of families rushing to the San diego Zoo. You can also find some great deals on hotel rooms during the winter when the rainy season hits. However, because of the nice weather year-round, there is never really a bad time to visit. Just make sure to book in advance if you're planning a trip for the summer high season.

The best way to get around San Diego is by car. You'll find that the trolley and bus routes aren't as well-connected as in other cities, so to fully experience everything, you're better off controlling your own mobility. You can rent a car from the San Diego International Airport (SAN) -- located about three miles northwest of central city -- or you can take a taxi for about $10 and then rent a car once you arrive in town. There is also a shuttle that connects the airport to several areas, including downtown and Mission Beach. A one-way trip starts at about $8 per person.

ANDAMAN & NICOBAR ISLANDS


Sea breezes keep temperatures within the 23°C to 31°C range and the humidity at around 80% all year. The southwest monsoons come to the islands between roughly mid-May and early October, and the northeast monsoons between November and December. The best time to visit is between December and early April, when the days are warm, but not oppressive, and the nights pleasant.

Once known as Kalapani – Black Waters – for their role as a feared penal settlement, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands are now a relaxed tropical island outpost that belongs to India but is geographically closer to Southeast Asia.
