Now is seriously the time, people. I could give you a few choice destinations that are absolutely perfect this time of year\u2014say London<\/a>, Paris<\/a>, or Berlin<\/a>, if you\u2019re looking to hit the quintessential European cities, or the Scandinavian countries of Norway<\/a> and Sweden<\/a>, if you\u2019re a fjord-loving nature nut with a penchant for midnight suns\u2014but that\u2019d be doing you a disservice.<\/p>\n Because, literally, the entire continent of Europe is pure perfection this time of year. Every single European destination you could possibly want to visit will be flawless if you travel there in June.<\/p>\n The weather is perfect, the days are long, the Mediterranean half of the continent<\/a> is in full-swing beach season\u2014it doesn\u2019t get any better than this. Come July and August, the weather will still be gorgeous, but the tourist crowds will start filtering in en masse. June is really the sweet spot when it comes to European vacations.<\/p>\n So what are you waiting for? Grab your backpack and get going. Bon voyage!<\/em><\/p>\n tr3gin \/ Shutterstock<\/p><\/div>\n Tanzania is the place to be<\/a>. There\u2019s no better time to visit this East African nation than June, when the weather is dry and cool (relatively speaking\u2014this is still Africa, folks). Tanzania is home to a number of incredible national parks, known for their spectacular wildlife.<\/p>\n Visiting during the dry season means the vegetation will be less lush\u2014a possible downside for foliage fanatics\u2014but the animals will be easier to spot. Tree-climbing lions are way more visible when the trees they\u2019re climbing have fewer leaves. Makes sense!<\/p>\n When you\u2019ve had your fill of lions, zebras, and wildebeests\u2014oh my!\u2014head over to the Tanzanian archipelago of Zanzibar, a gorgeous beach oasis. You\u2019ll find powdery white sand, crystal clear waters, and a rich culture infused with Swahili, Islamic, and Portuguese influences.<\/p>\n r.nagy \/ Shutterstock<\/p><\/div>\n Craving an Asian vacation? June is, for the most part, not the best time to visit, as the majority of the continent will be drowning in monsoons. But! Malaysia is an exception.<\/p>\n June marks the beginning of the dry season in Malaysia, ushering in the kind of weather that\u2019s just perfect for site seeing. Check out the architecture and the street food in Kuala Lumpur\u2014the city you\u2019ll inevitably fly into and out of<\/a>\u2014and then move on to see what else this split nation has to offer.<\/p>\n If an island resort is what you seek, head over to Pulau Pangkor, a favorite relaxation spot among Malaysian families. If you\u2019re more of a culture and history kind of traveler, stop in Penang and Kota Bharu to check out historic temples, streets, guildhalls, and\u2014most interestingly\u2014shadow puppet productions of Hindu epics. Want to enjoy the great outdoors? Head to Taman Negara, one of the world\u2019s oldest rainforests, for trekking and wildlife experiences you won\u2019t find anywhere else.<\/p>\n Dudarev Mikhail \/ Shutterstock<\/p><\/div>\n If you\u2019re obsessed with all things aquatic, Australia\u2019s Ningaloo Reef is where you should be headed this June. June marks the beginning of the Australian winter\u2014meaning smaller crowds and more moderate temperatures\u2014so you\u2019ll be able to enjoy this UNESCO World Heritage site in near perfect conditions.<\/p>\n Fly into Perth<\/a>, then rent a car and start your epic adventure around the reef<\/a>. Along the way, you can lay in the sand, go surfing\u2014traditional, kite, and wind, in case you were wondering\u2014go fishing, and even swim with whale sharks. Now that\u2019s something to add to your bucket list, mate!<\/em><\/p>\n dibrova \/ Shutterstock<\/p><\/div>\n Last but not least, if you\u2019re planning to stay in the good ol\u2019 US of A, New York is a great place to visit in June<\/a>. The weather is just right\u2014a phenomenon that happens all of 2 months out of the entire year\u2014the tourists haven\u2019t quite arrived yet, and the days are long and sunny. It\u2019s really a great month to hit the Big Apple.<\/p>\n While you\u2019re in NYC, you can check out Times Square, Chinatown, Little Italy, the Brooklyn Bridge, Central Park, and so much more. You can even visit some of the weirdest museums<\/a> you\u2019ll probably find anywhere ever. There\u2019s really no place like New York. And! You might be able to win some free tickets, tours, and eats along the way.<\/a> Score!<\/p>\n Where will you be headed this June?
