Algarve
Warm even in winter, Portugal's Algarve never falls out of fashion with holidaymakers. Find out why it's a top destination in June. Long sunny days and daytime temperatures in the mid- to high-twenties make the Algarve an ideal destination for holidays in June.
This stretch of southern Portugal features an enticing cocktail of holiday ingredients: tremendous beaches, tasty food, excellent hotels... they're all shaken up with a little Portuguese zest and served alongside a great big platter of sunshine and blue skies.
Flights arrive into the Algarve on a regular basis from UK airports and great-value holidays can be booked at any time, especially in June before the busy summer season really gets into full swing.
From spa hotels and golf resorts to family hotels and sprawling self-catering villas, there's a wide range of accommodation types in the Algarve and a holiday to suit every kind of traveller.
Albufeira is one of the most popular destinations, with resorts such as Alvor, Praia da Luz and Portimao also welcoming many sun seekers.
Costa Del Sol
Since its emergence as a low-cost package holiday destination back in the 60s, the Costa del Sol has been putting smiles on faces with a simple yet effective offering: sun, sea and sand on a budget.
But it’s not just about long, sweeping beaches and glistening blue waters – although there’s plenty of those. Coastal classics such as Benalmadena, Nerja and Torremolinos, offer cheap beach holidays in abundance, while inland the white-washed villages of traditional Spain await.
Andalusia is right on your doorstep and cosmopolitan Malaga is well within reach. Whether you’re after luxury boutiques, rustic B&Bs, no-stress all-inclusives or world-class golf resorts, the Costa del Sol has the lot.
As June is just before high season, the weather isn’t quite at its hottest, but at an average of 22°C and 11 sunshine hours a day, it’s plenty warm enough for a relaxing break in the sun. It’s also a cheap time to go before the school holiday crowds arrive. Our data found that prices were around 25% lower in June than in August.
Greek islands
With well over 10 hours of sunshine a day and average high temperatures of 27°C, June is a fantastic month to visit the Greek islands. Better still, the prices are still competitive ahead of the summer peak: it’s 35% cheaper to go in June than it is in August, according to our price data.
But before you swan off to sunnier climes, you’ve got a big decision to make: which island do you pick? Each island has a distinct character and feel. Some, such as Zante and Rhodes, are lively and popular, with nightlife easy to come by and resorts in all shapes and sizes. Others feel stuck in a time-warp with tradition leading the way and local ferries offering the only access.
Choose from well-known classics, such as Crete, Corfu, Mykonos and Santorini, or take a detour away from the usual suspects in favour of lesser-visited stunners like Ithaca, Paxos, Skyros and Hydra.
No matter which island you go for, you’re all but guaranteed gorgeous beaches, rich culture and fascinating history and, of course, that famous Greek hospitality.
Majorca
Majorca has all the ingredients of a classic holiday destination. Lively, safe beach resorts, miles of stunning coastline, and delicious food and drink are just a few of the many charms that make the biggest Balearic so popular.
There’s plenty of choice, too: Cala Bona and Puerto Pollensa cater to families and couples, Magaluf is ideal for those after nightlife, while Palma, the island’s capital, is a great sunny city break destination with its nightlife and cosmopolitan vibe.
Step away from the beaches and coves and move inland to find yet another side to Majorca, one steeped in history and tradition. With a beautiful interior of rugged mountains and rustic vineyards, hikers and cyclists will be right at home in the foothills of the Serra de Tramuntana.
June holidays are 30% cheaper than those in August, according to our data, so there are still plenty of deals to be had without having to compromise on weather. Speaking of weather, June in Majorca is a glorious time to visit, with average highs of 27°C and around 12 hours of sunshine a day.
Tenerife
From the idyllic beaches that fringe its coastline to the volcanic terrain at its core and wilder northern regions, Tenerife is a fantastically diverse island. Out at sea, there’s even more to discover.
The waters surrounding the island are packed with life, making Tenerife a year-round hot spot for whale watching. Perhaps Tenerife’s biggest draw though, is its perfect summer weather. In June, average highs touch the 25°C mark, with 10 sunshine hours a day ensuring plenty of vitamin D.
As the start of summer, temperatures start to climb and the chance of rain lessens in June. That said, there are some slight weather variations depending on the area of the island you’re in. Playa de Las Americas and Los Gigantes in the south are very hot and dry. Northern resorts, such as Puerto de la Cruz, tend to be slightly cooler in June.
In June, you’re still likely to find a great bargain, as it’s just before the peak summer season really begins. Average prices are more than 30% cheaper in June than in August according to our price data.
Turkey
Whether riding a hot air balloon in Cappadocia, tucking into a kebab in Istanbul or stretching out on a sublime beach in Bodrum, June is a brilliant month for a holiday in Turkey. Brits visit in droves to seek out its fascinating mix of ancient history, mouth-watering cuisine and dramatic, distinctive landscapes.
Most end up on its long southern coastline, which is packed with vibrant resorts that offer excellent value for money, as well as the customary sun, sea and sand. Bodrum, Marmaris, Dalaman, Olu Deniz, Antalya and Side are among the most popular.
Average temperatures vary across the country, but you can usually expect it to be around the mid-20s with long, sunny days. The temperature might be starting to creep up in June, but the prices aren’t. According to our price data, Turkey holidays are up to 44% cheaper in June than August, on average.
