Warm Weather and Sparser Crowds Await with These Spring Destinations
Cornwall, England
Cornwall is pretty as a postcard any time of year, but in spring the area comes into full bloom, making it one of the most beautiful places to visit in spring. England’s beach getaway steps out of winter ahead of the rest of the country, so you can stroll the beaches and wander through fields in tentative sunshine as early as February.
Seals start to appear along the Cornish coast along with the warmer weather, the moody colors of the moors get interrupted by spring flowers and newborn lambs bobbing around, and the beaches are (almost) inviting enough for a swim. All of the local seasonal produce means plenty of good things to eat in cozy cafes if the weather does go bad.

Paris, France
As the writer Henry Miller said, “When spring comes to Paris, the humblest mortal alive must feel that he dwells in paradise.” As a spring travel destination, Paris is hard to beat.
The warmer weather means you can stroll the atmospheric streets all day, enjoying the famous parks in full bloom and the chic sidewalk cafes bustling as Parisians sip their espressos in spring sunshine.
This is also the best season to explore the market culture in Paris, with rows of produce, cheese and antique stalls laid out under blue skies. In springtime, the City of Light simply glows.
