TOP 7 countries for a beach holiday in January: where to fly to the sea where you can swim and it will be hot

In the middle of winter in Russia it is cold and snowy, and even in the southern resorts of the country you cannot swim in the sea or sunbathe. But there are many places in the world where you can fly to the sea in January, where it will be hot. It’s unlikely that you’ll be able to have an inexpensive vacation in winter, since you’ll have to fly far and possibly overseas. But we tried to find countries and resorts that tourists from Russia can afford.

Some numbers and information for thought:

Beach holidays in winter are much more expensive than in summer. For example, in winter the cost of a ten-day tour for two costs more than one hundred thousand rubles, and in summer a tour to Turkey can be bought for 35 thousand rubles for two.

The most popular country in winter among Russians: Thailand. About two hundred tourists from Russia come here every winter.

More than twenty thousand Russians spend the whole winter in Thailand, but the most popular holiday period is 10 days.

About 90% of Russians fly in winter on vacation to Southeast Asia and only 10% overseas to the countries of South America

After such dry statistics, you can move on to our TOP. As you already understand, it consists almost entirely of Southeast Asian countries and this is not because we want it so. This is because this is the current trend. But there will still be other countries in the ranking that can be called unexpected.

Thailand

First place, no surprises. Even if it’s banal and many people are tired of it, Thailand will be number one among Russians in the winter for a long time. Everything is simple here: the cost of a vacation is one of the lowest on the market during this period of time, the climate at the resorts is wonderful, the weather is super, and in addition to a beach holiday, there are a lot of other options for how to entertain yourself.
If you are flying to Thailand during the New Year holidays, then prepare your wallets, as the cost of tours these days is high. To save money, travel to the islands after January 7th. Then you will save at least 30% of the cost of New Year's tours!
One of the disadvantages is the language barrier. But currently there are many Russians living in Thailand, and almost all of them work in the tourism sector. So you can easily find out everything and can ask any exciting question. National cuisine can also be a problem, so in the first days of arrival, try to eat in restaurants and cafes that serve Russian food. And when you get used to it, you will taste something exotic.

Dominican Republic

We put the distant but beautiful Dominican Republic in second place. Many people dream of relaxing on the heavenly beaches of the country, but only a few realize their dream. Holidays in the Dominican Republic are expensive, and the cost of tours starts from one hundred thousand rubles for seven days. Add to this a long flight across the ocean, and the prices in the country are high for absolutely everything. For example, a tour of several hours can cost you $250! Very expensive.

But there are also advantages. Firstly, the hotels here operate on an all-inclusive basis. So, having paid for your vacation, you don’t have to spend anything else if you don’t want to take excursions and other entertainment. Secondly, all the beaches here are sandy, and the nature is so beautiful that you can admire it for hours. The Dominican Republic has a huge number of national parks, and this is a big plus. Everywhere there is cleanliness and order, everything around is beautiful and untouched by man.

Vietnam

Since Egypt is still closed to Russians, someone had to take its place and that someone was Vietnam and its popular resorts. Beach holidays in the country are developing rapidly. There are hundreds of luxury hotels right on the sea coast, sandy beaches, and entertainment for every taste and budget.
The advantages of a holiday in Vietnam are obvious: cleanliness on the streets and on the coast, a lot of fruits and they are cheap, gorgeous warm weather and a warm sea, interesting exclusive excursions and much more.
One of the disadvantages is that the Vietnamese prefer not to put price tags on their goods, and each time the same product can cost differently. So here you have to go around to buy something cheaper. And you shouldn't vacation in big cities. There is such car traffic that there is unimaginable noise and the city moves like a huge anthill. For relaxation, choose small villages and away from noisy roads.

Thought we forgot about Goa? Of course not! During the day in Goa, the sun is so hot that you want to bury yourself in the sand or run away into the impenetrable jungle. But at the same time the sea is warm and calm. There are days when there are no waves at all in the sea and this is surprising.
It’s easier to vacation in Goa, since English is very common here. The local beaches are very wide and completely sandy. There are plenty of attractions in India, so in addition to the beach, you can also go on excursions.

Not all tourists like Goa. Some people say the beaches are dirty. This is true, but this applies to free beaches. Which can be cleaned once a day. And if the beaches belong to hotels, then they are clean and beautiful. Tourists also note the unique local cuisine, which is not suitable for everyone. Therefore, it is better not to take risks and not try it. But the cost of tours is not high and you can actually buy a ticket for 60-70 thousand rubles for two, but such luck is rare.

Mexico

Another country to which you need to fly across the ocean. Beach holidays in Mexico are amazing, but the prices are steep. Tourists have a large selection of resorts to choose from, but all prices are in dollars, like most goods at the resorts. This is due to the fact that 80% of vacationers here are from the United States, since the countries are neighbors. That's why holidays in Mexico are expensive.
The advantages of relaxing at local resorts are obvious: it’s unforgettable, relaxing on the ocean, incredibly interesting excursions, new experiences and new cuisine.
There are disadvantages, and among them is that the beautiful life in Mexico is mainly in the resorts, and basically the country is poor and, traveling outside the resorts, this immediately catches your eye. Language may also be a problem, but knowing English can improve this problem.

Sri Lanka

The country is located in the ocean, so the entire coastline is open ocean. In January the island is warm and almost dry. In addition to a beach holiday, you can visit local temples. Admire the huge tea plantations, see the natural wealth and most importantly - here you can see real whales in the open ocean! It's worth flying so far for this.

The Emirates have long become one of the best countries for holidays. But we put it in last place in our ranking for a reason. Firstly, in winter there are a huge number of tourists. Secondly, the country is rich and prices for everything are high. What can I say if regular local ice cream costs about three dollars. Also keep in mind that the country is Arab and has its own laws that should be respected and observed. So you will adapt to the country, and not the country to you.
But the cities of the UAE are very beautiful and there is where to go and what to see. This is why such a large number of Russians visit the Emirates every year.

January is traditionally a month with high tourist activity, which is explained by the presence of long New Year holidays in Russia. Tourists choose both cold European ski resorts and warm beach resorts in Asia and America as holiday destinations. In this article we will talk about where you can go to the sea in January 2018 inexpensively. We will focus on such aspects as weather, cost of vacation, accessibility for tourists from Russia, conditions for tourists from Russia and the possibility of relaxing with children. For all these criteria we give marks on a 10-point system
There are quite a few places on Earth that offer warm weather in January. In many countries in Asia and Central America, January is the peak of the high season. So you will have a fairly large selection of places where you can go on a seaside holiday in January. But due to the fact that many of these places are very popular in winter, the cost of vacationing in these places can be quite high.

Mexico (Cancun)

There is a slight chance of heavy rainfall in Cancun in January, but in general these showers usually last 30-60 minutes. Otherwise, the weather in Cancun in January is absolutely wonderful.
Accommodation prices in Cancun are at a high level in January. Add to this expensive air tickets, and you will understand why Mexico is such an expensive destination for Russian tourists.
It is worth noting that the Cancun resort area is a huge area with many opportunities. The area consists of Cancun itself, where there are mainly high-rise hotels with sea views, and the Riviera Maya, Playa del Carmen and Tulum areas. A particularly pleasant destination is Playa del Carmen, which is a lovely tourist town with beach hotels and good nightlife and shopping opportunities.
Although Cancun is great for families with children, you should still think carefully about traveling to Mexico with a child, since the flight duration on a direct flight from Moscow is 13-14 hours.

Dominican Republic (Punta Cana)

The eastern edge of the Dominican Republic is where you'll find a collection of beach hotels to suit every taste. This area is called Punta Cana. Unlike most countries in the Caribbean, the Dominican Republic has many huge beach hotels that offer over 1,000 rooms. This grand scale may not appeal to every traveler, but it allows these resorts to offer the best prices in the Caribbean for all-inclusive and full-service vacations.
In the first week of January, hotel prices in Punta Cana are quite high. So you shouldn’t blame our tour operators alone for the high cost of tours to the Dominican Republic. In the second half of the month, prices for tours cool down, but they still remain quite high, especially when it comes to good 5-star hotels.
The weather in Punta Cana in January is quite sunny and warm. There is no heat here, but sometimes precipitation can occur in the form of short showers. In addition, sometimes there may be relatively cool days when you may want to wrap yourself in a towel while relaxing on the beach.
Unlike Mexico, the Dominican Republic is a more “Russian” destination. In recent years, Russian tourists in Punta Cana have returned to the top three in terms of numbers, second only to Americans and Canadians. So you shouldn’t be surprised at the presence of inscriptions in Cyrillic in hotels and in some establishments outside of hotels. At the markets, some traders understand Russian quite well.
If you are planning to go on holiday to the Dominican Republic with children, then it is important to choose a suitable hotel and prepare for a long flight.

Cuba (Varadero)

The weather in Varadero in January is slightly cooler than in the Dominican Republic and Mexico, but it is also slightly drier. In principle, there is no particular difference in weather between these three destinations in January.
The cost of living in Varadero is slightly lower than in Cancun and about the same as the cost of living in Punta Cana. But still, tours to these three popular resort areas in January are very high.
Although hotels in Varadero are generally not as child-friendly as those in Punta Cana and Cancun, the beach here is the best for kids, with calm waters and a gradual entry into the ocean.
As you know, Cuba loves tourists from Russia, and many Cubans understand Russian well. So this is one of two countries in the Caribbean, along with the Dominican Republic, where Russian tourists will feel at home.

Spain (Tenerife)

Where to go in January for a seaside holiday in Europe? The warmest region in Europe in January is the Canary Islands. But still, the weather here at this time of year can hardly be called ideal for a beach holiday, since the average daily temperature is only 21 degrees. This weather is not suitable for swimming, but you can still relax on the beach.
The most interesting thing is that January is part of the high season in Tenerife, so prices for accommodation here are relatively high, although hotels here are generally inexpensive by European or world standards.
Tenerife is suitable for families with children, as there is a lot of interesting things for little ones, including a water park and a zoo. Although the majority of tourists in Tenerife are British, Spanish and German, the island is also no stranger to Russians.

China (Hainan)

Where to go in January 2018 for a seaside holiday in Asia? There are many places in this region of the world that offer great weather in January. Often these places have very warm weather. Therefore, if you want to relax in a region with moderately warm weather, then you should pay attention to Hainan Island. While the rest of China experiences cold, often freezing weather in January, the tropical island experiences an average daily temperature of 22.7 degrees. At the same time, the amount of precipitation here is relatively small - around 50 mm for the entire month.
It is interesting that, unlike many other places in Asia, hotels in Hainan do not raise their prices to the skies in January, except for the first days of the month. So Hainan in winter is a fairly cheap place for a beach holiday.
In general, this island is well suited for families with children, as many large hotels have everything necessary for little guests. In addition, the island itself has a lot of activities for kids.
How well is Hainan suitable for Russian tourists? In fact, in the resort area of ​​Sanya with the bays of Dadonghai, Yalongwan and Sanya Bay, only Chinese and Russian tourists, who are diluted with a few representatives of Asian and European countries, relax. So you will feel right at home in Hainan.

India (Goa)

The resort area of ​​Goa is incredibly popular during the New Year holidays and in January, so at this time of year, trips to this state of India will be more expensive than at any other time of the year. However, holidays in Goa are still incredibly cheap compared to many other regions of the world. True, we are talking about holidays in inexpensive hotels and guesthouses, and not in luxury five-star hotels.
Although January is considered one of the coldest months in Goa, the average daily temperature during this time of year is 31.2 degrees. That being said, it is quite dry here and rain is generally seen as a blessing.
In terms of holidays with children, Goa is not the best option, but if you still decide to go to this region with children, then we recommend choosing a good hotel in South Goa.
Note that Goa is one of the most “Russian” regions in Asia. Whether this is good or bad is up to you to decide.

Philippines (Boracay Island)

One of the ideal places to holiday in January in terms of weather is Boracay Island. The weather here is simply wonderful, as it is usually not hot during the day (28.4 degrees on average) and not cold at night (23.8 degrees on average). But such good weather comes at a price, as owners of local hotels and guest houses are taking advantage of the increased demand for housing and are significantly raising prices. But Boracay Island remains one of the cheapest destinations for a beach holiday in winter.
Boracay combines affordable prices, excellent beaches and a pleasant atmosphere that is much nicer than most other busy resort areas in Southeast Asia.
The main disadvantage of this destination is the low accessibility for tourists from Russia, since in most cases it takes a long time to get to the island. For example, in order to get to Boracay from Moscow, you need to make at least one transfer (usually two transfers), then get to the ferry pier, cross to the island and ride to your hotel on a three-wheeled motorcycle. Many tourists simply do not want to make such a trip and choose some “simpler” destination.

Vietnam (Nha Trang, Phan Thiet)

Vietnam remains one of the cheapest holiday destinations in Asia, so those tourists who do not want to spend a lot of money on a holiday in January often choose resorts in Vietnam such as Nha Trang and Phan Thiet.
One of the main advantages of Vietnam is that this country offers tours with direct flights from many Russian cities. So many tourists do not need to make any transfers, but only need to endure a relatively short flight. For residents of the cities of Siberia and the Far East, Vietnam is one of the most convenient and inexpensive places to relax.
Is Vietnam suitable for families with children? In my opinion, this country is ideal for a family holiday only if you live in Vinpearl and can go to an amusement park with your child any day, or if you stay in hotels of the Dessoles chain. It is worth remembering that in January there may be high waves in Vietnam, which can pose a danger not only to children, but also to adults.
In terms of convenience for tourists from Russia, Vietnam is considered one of the best places in Asia. Vietnamese speaking Russian is not something surprising.

Thailand (Phuket)

Phuket is no longer a very cheap holiday destination, especially if you decide to stay in one of the luxury hotels outside the popular beaches of Patong, Karon and Kata. For those who want to spend as little money as possible on their vacation, we recommend choosing a hotel either in Patong or Karon, as these areas have a good selection of inexpensive cafes.
January in Phuket offers excellent weather, and the island itself is incredibly popular with tourists from around the world this month. There are a lot of Russians, Chinese, Australians, Arabs, and Europeans here. It should not be surprising that in such conditions, hotel prices are quite high. In January, rooms in some 3-star hotels in Phuket are more expensive than rooms in inexpensive 5-star hotels in Turkey in July. And this despite the fact that in the first case only breakfast is provided, and in the second - all inclusive.
But still, in terms of beach holidays, Phuket in January is considered one of the best places in Asia, since at this time of year the water on most beaches is calm and warm.

UAE

Although January in the UAE is a cool and even a little rainy month, this country is still one of the closest places to the European part of Russia, where you can go on vacation at sea. The average daily temperature in the UAE this month is 23.7° C, and the water temperature is 21.6° C. Not everyone goes swimming in such conditions, but the UAE offers pretty good conditions for relaxing on the beach. It would probably be right to choose the emirate of Fujairah for a holiday in January, since the Hajar Mountains protect this emirate from the penetration of cold air masses from the north.
The cost of living in the UAE in January is quite high, despite the not the best weather. However, flights to Dubai from cities in European Russia are cheaper than flights to Thailand or Vietnam, so the overall cost of a holiday in the UAE may end up being lower than in Southeast Asian countries.
Is the UAE suitable for families with children? This is certainly one of the best places for a family seaside holiday in January, as the Emirates offers a good selection of hotels with children's clubs and other amenities for children, as well as the opportunity to take your little ones to any of the many theme parks and other interesting places.

The best place for a seaside holiday in January

Now it's time to take stock. First, we will present the general ranking of the countries that we talked about in this article.

The rating turned out like this:
1. Thailand (Phuket) - 8.4
2. UAE - 8.2
3. Vietnam - 8.0
4. China (Hainan) - 7.8
5. India (Goa) - 7.4
6. Dominican Republic (Punta Cana) - 6.6
7. Cuba (Varadero) - 6.4
8. Spain (Tenerife) - 6.4
9. Philippines (Boracay) - 5.8
10. Mexico (Cancun) - 5.2

Choosing a suitable holiday destination in January is not difficult if you understand perfectly what is most important to you. It is also important what region of Russia you live in. For example, for residents of Siberia and the Far East, Asian countries are more suitable options, while for residents of the European part of Russia, countries in the Middle East, Europe and the Caribbean are more suitable.
If price is important to you, then you should pay attention to such destinations as Goa, Phuket, Nha Trang Li Phan Thiet, Hainan, UAE. Places such as Tenerife and the UAE are better suited for families with children, but the weather in these regions is not very warm in January. Goa, Phuket and Boracay are good options for holidays without children. Boracay Island, in my opinion, offers ideal weather for a beach holiday in January. The weather is also good this month in the Caribbean.
In general, we advise you to carefully evaluate what you most need from your vacation and choose a destination based on this.

Beach holiday in January 2020: where to relax abroad and inexpensively

When you look out the window in January, what do you see there? Sun, sea, sand and people relaxing on the beach! Don't believe me? And this is so, because these people look out the window of their hotel room and relax in the midst of winter on the warm coast. Is that what you want? Then let's see where to holiday abroad inexpensively in January 2020, and arrange a beach holiday for yourself in the first winter month. We have selected the best countries with beach holidays and now we will tell you about them. And so, let's get acquainted with our TOP.

And so, January is not the best month for beach lovers. There are not many countries with a warm climate, the choice is limited and therefore prices can be very high. But you don’t need to give up your vacation right away, look at the TOP, and you will definitely find countries where everything will suit you: the weather, the prices, and the hotels.

Thailand is the peak tourist season.
In the first month of the year, resorts in Thailand experience a real peak season. All hotels and beaches in the country are occupied by tourists enjoying the warmth and sea.


As we already said. In January, the water off the coast of Thailand is warm, even hot! It warms up to +29 degrees, and at times even +31!
At this time of year there is no wind, low humidity and the temperature stabilizes. Therefore, tourists feel calm and do not suffer from anything.

Natalia:
“I was on vacation in Thailand last January. What can I say: super weather, super beaches and simply - everything is super! Of course, it’s a little unusual that it’s a New Year and winter without snow. But this is forgotten on the first day. I especially liked the sunsets on the beach. They are something special here, and unlike anything else. And I have visited many countries. And I have something to compare with!”

In addition to beach holidays, there are many excursions here. After all, Thailand is an interesting and rich culture. Tourists go sightseeing and visit nature reserves. People often come here to visit temples and to calm down spiritually.

Dubai is an alternative to Egypt.
Yes, Egypt is still closed to our tourists and this cannot but sadden us. But if you are looking for an alternative, then Dubai is it.


Of course, it is a little more expensive here than in an African country, but the difference in money is compensated by beauty and service.
The weather here in January is beautiful - sunny and dry. It’s true that it’s often windy, so there are a lot of surfers here. But tourists are not scared away by the waves; after all, they are large and far from the shore. And tourists go into the ocean and enjoy the warm water.

Denis:
“When I first came to Dubai, I was amazed by its beauty. Everything here is so unusual and everything is so natural. When they told us on the excursion that there had been a desert here for literally a couple of decades, I didn’t believe it. As for relaxation, everything here is gorgeous. The hotel has the best service I have ever seen. The beaches are clean, and the city itself is free of garbage. I also visited the kite festival – it’s a spectacle forever!”

There are also sales in Dubai in January. So don’t be surprised if you see people running back and forth with huge bags - they just want to buy more and pay less.
What else does Dubai attract our tourists with? It's flight time! The flight here is only a few hours, 3-5, depending on the city where you live. Plus, the time in the UAE is the same as in Moscow. So for most tourists there will be absolutely no acclimatization and transition to another time.

Sri Lanka – holiday all year round.
All tourists know that holidays in Sri Lanka are possible all year round. But January is the best time to relax here.


Among the advantages of a holiday in Sri Lanka in January, the warm ocean and dry weather on the southern side of the state should be highlighted. During the day the air temperature rises to +33 degrees. And the nights are such that you can sleep without a blanket and with the window open at +25 degrees.

Vika:
“I’ve always been fascinated by whales. I'm just crazy about them. These big fish. They are so beautiful! Arriving in Sri Lanka in January, I arrived at a time when you can see whales very close. During this period of time, they migrate and swim close to the shores and often swim on the surface of the ocean.
Don't be afraid of whales, they are completely harmless. We rented a small yacht and sailed with them. This is an experience that will last a lifetime!”

Another advantage of a holiday in Sri Lanka is that a visa can be issued directly at the airports upon arrival or at home via online. You don't need to visit the embassy and collect a lot of documents.

Sri Lanka is rich in natural landscapes. There are beautiful nature reserves, beautiful mountains and many parks that have state status. Nature lovers flock here more often than beach lovers. Plus there are many temples in Sri Lanka, you can visit them and even live there for a while.

Where else?
There are other places where in January it is warm, dry and you can swim in the sea. For example, Goa is an Indian state. In January it is above +30 degrees and the weather is dry all days.
We also recommend taking a closer look at Vietnam and its resorts. Holidays in Vietnam are inexpensive, but very high quality. On average, a 10-day tour for two will cost you 60,000 thousand rubles.
If you don’t mind the long flight, then go to Cuba or Mexico. The Maldives is popular among Russian tourists, and people fly here to celebrate the New Year and spend time in the sun and warm ocean.

TOP hot destinations where you can soak up the warm sea in January 2020. An excellent beach holiday is guaranteed!

In January, in the midst of winter, I already really want summer! This is why every year I fly away to warm tropical countries for the winter. This review is based on my experience and plans for the coming January. I talk about interesting and hot exotic destinations and separately talk about countries where you can go without a visa and where to have an inexpensive vacation.

Thailand

Thailand is the No. 1 country for those who want to relax at sea in January 2020. We have gone on vacation to Tai three times already and will definitely come back again. We love it for its excellent yarns and nature, pleasant climate, low prices and delicious food.

Where to go. Food, accommodation and tours are cheaper in Pattaya, but the beaches and nature in Phuket are better. Choose where to go - .

Things to do. Go on excursions to temples, national parks and reserves, go diving, snorkeling, kayaking, and take a yacht ride. In Thailand, holidays are celebrated brightly and on a grand scale. In addition to the European New Year, Children's Day and Chinese New Year are celebrated in January with carnival processions and colorful shows.

Amazing Banana Beach in Phuket with a minimum of people, clean sea and sand, lack of infrastructure and picturesque views.

India (Goa)

Where can you relax at sea inexpensively in January 2020? Head to the beaches of India!

Things to do. Popular entertainments include elephant riding, excursions to ancient cities and temples, and youth trance parties. In January, several public holidays are celebrated with lavish parades.

Sri Lanka

You can have a good rest at sea in January 2020 on the island of Ceylon. This year we traveled around the island for a whole month - we really enjoyed it. Nature there is just space!

Weather. It is relatively cool on the island in January: during the day on the coast +27...+30°C, the sea +28°C, in the evenings it is warm +24°C, but mosquitoes interfere with walks. Rains are rare and short-lived.

Things to do. What impressed us most about Ceylon was the nature: we went on a safari and it was very inexpensive and very exciting. Be sure to go to the mountains, to the village - this is Heaven on Earth. Also try surfing or fishing. In Ratnapura you can go down into the mines and see how sapphires are mined. There are many excursions on the island: to tea plantations, to an elephant nursery and turtle farm, to the sacred Mount Adam and to Buddhist temples.


Curry in Sri Lanka is a delicious dish!

Mexico

Many believe that the best beach holiday in January 2020 should be sought in the Caribbean, for example, in Mexico. We have been flying to Asia in the winter for many years, and now we also decided to go to the American shores. Let's see how good it is there!

Weather. Warm and sunny: during the day +27...+30°С, at night +19...+21°С, sea water temperature +24°С. There is little precipitation and it usually falls at night.

Things to do. Dolphins and giant sea turtles can be seen here, and the coral reefs are considered to be among the largest in the world. Tourists explore volcanoes, caves, cenotes, Mayan pyramids and colonial architecture.

Cuba

Cuba is another country where it is warm in January 2020 and you can relax by the sea. We are also planning a trip to Liberty Island in December-January: we want to see Havana, Varadero and ride around the island.

Things to do. Active water activities: diving, parasailing, scooter and banana rides, paragliding. Go on excursions to Havana and Trinidad, taste Cuban rum and cigars. In January, Cubans noisily and cheerfully celebrate Liberation Day.

Weather. In January, cyclones reign, bringing heavy short-term precipitation and high humidity up to 80%. Most often it rains in the afternoon. Nevertheless, the air temperature confidently remains at +30°C, the water in the ocean is +27°C, but in the mountains it is a little colder.

Things to do. In January, in addition to beach holidays, you can go surfing, kiting, diving and deep-sea fishing. Mauritius has unique bays, lagoons, volcanoes, waterfalls and sugar plantations. Visit national parks and reserves and watch exotic animals and birds.
