June is a fantastic time to take a summer holiday. Before the schools break up in July, the beaches and tourist attractions are noticeably less crowded, both in Europe and around the world.

As Europe starts to bask in a sunkissed glow, you can laze around a pool or sit peacefully on a beach before most families descend; plus you’ll benefit from cheaper travel costs before the school holidays hit. Countries such as Croatia, Greece and Italy have temperatures ranging from 24-29C and up to 11 hours of sunshine a day, so you don’t have to go far to guarantee warm weather.
