Change winter scenery for summer immediately after the New Year holidays? Why not! 🙂
We collected the “hottest” countries (plus, some spare), where you can go to the sea in January and tell you:
- what is the weather like in popular destinations;
- where to fly without a visa, and where there will not be any special problems with obtaining it;
- at which resort will you come off;
- and where to relax at sea in January is inexpensive?
Basically, countries where hot weather reigns in winter relate to distant destinations - Southeast Asia, the Caribbean, or islands in the Indian Ocean. For a short period, up to 2-3 weeks, it is more profitable to visit them on a ready-made ticket, otherwise only the flight will “eat” half of the budget. We buy tours online on proven services, about 2-3 months before the trip, and look for them according to this scheme:

The best beach vacation in January, according to most Russian tourists, is in Thailand. In winter, stable weather is established on the coast without rains and hurricanes, the sea calms down, which means that the tourist season is in full swing.
Unusual tropical landscapes, exotic fruits, delicious Tom Yama, pad Thai and cheap accommodation encourage Russians, including us :), to spend the winters in Thailand. In addition, vacation without a visa also eliminates unnecessary trouble.
- At the beginning of the month (until about the 10th day) a 10-day tour to Thailand costs from 80,000 rubles for two. In the second half, the price tag drops to 72,000 rubles
Of course, during the January holidays, trips to Thailand have the highest prices. But you can still count on an inexpensive beach vacation:
- having booked a tour in advance, for 4-5 months;
- pulling to the last and by a happy (very!) chance grabbing a burning tour;
- having bought a tour until December 24-25 and for 14 days;
- or by choosing Pattaya for your vacation - where on-site expenses are cheaper than anywhere else 🙂
- if your tour to Thailand is more expensive than 100,000 rubles, you can save 2,000 rubles on a promotional code AF2000Thowtrip.
Phuket in January
Phuket Beach Sunset
If during the day you prefer peace in the shade of palm trees on the white sand to the sound of the surf, and in the evening - lively entertainment, then Phuket for a vacation in January and February would be a good choice.
The weather is traditionally hot, rain or wind are extremely rare events, the water is calm and clear. Nothing will prevent you from recharging with the right dose of sun and returning home with a golden tan. The sea temperature in January in Phuket is + 28 ° С ... + 29 ° С, and the air warms up to + 30 ° С ... + 32 ° С.
Where to relax at sea in January a little budget than in Thailand? View neighboring Vietnam. All the components of a decent beach resort are obvious: the European level of hotels, interesting local cuisine, enough attractions to not get bored, and the lowest prices in comparison with other countries.
The best place to go on a winter vacation in Vietnam is Phu Quoc Island. The direction is not yet so untwisted, and therefore here you can still comprehend unity with nature. The sea temperature in January is + 26 ° C ... + 27 ° C. The weather is comfortable - during the day about + 30 ° C, at night + 22 ° C. There is practically no rain, and the wind is light and pleasant. By the way, more recently, direct regular and have been opened to the island.
Other southern and southeastern regions of Vietnam, in particular, Nha Trang, Mui Ne and Phan Thiet, are also suitable for recreation. Unlike Fukuoka, they are already firmly chosen by tourists from all over the world.
- A trip to Vietnam for the sum will come from 80,000 rubles for two for 10 nights
Mexico

Where to go for a swim in January in an "unbroken" place? If you are not afraid of long trips and high prices, go .. no, not to the Maldives, who will surprise them now? 🙂 We offer Mexico - this is where in January it is warm and few Russian-speaking citizens. Both coasts of the country are good: both the Pacific and the Caribbean.
Acapulco more than half a century ago, was chosen by Hollywood stars. During this time, the modest fishing village has transformed into a prestigious tourist center with all the attendant circumstances: cool hotels, luxurious restaurants and a high level of service.
Cancun, located on the other bank, is recognized as one of the ten best resorts in the world, plus it is most suitable for families with children (not taking into account the long flight). Still, the undoubted advantage of Mexico, compared with the Caribbean neighbors - Cuba and the Dominican Republic - is that here, outside the hotel, life begins, and not longing.
Reviews of tourists who were lucky enough to spend the New Year holidays in the country come down to the fact that there is simply no cooler place. In mid-December, preparations for Christmas begin: biblical scenes are played out on the streets, carnival processions and fairs are held. Mexicans know how to have fun from the heart and celebrate holidays on a grand scale, so that a positive charge can be provided for a long time.
- Prices for beach vacations in January in Mexico “bite” - from 130,000 rubles for 10 days for two in the middle of the month

Zanzibar (Africa)
Zanzibar, Nungwi Beach (our trip in 2014)
If you have been to many countries and want to dilute the bored Southeast Asia, then here is an interesting option where to go to the sea in January 2020. To Zanzibar!
For Russians, the direction opened at the end of 2017, and in our opinion, tours from Moscow are acceptable. We were in Zanzibar two years earlier, on our own, and it came out in the same amount, only the living conditions were .. very modest. 🙂
This route is most suitable for those who are looking for atypical countries where it is hot in January. Prices are also attracted to Zanzibar: they are, of course, higher than Thai, but lower than in the Emirates, plus, they initially expect you to bargain.
The tourist season lasts all year round. For the purest coastal waters, white sand and the tranquility of a secluded island, it is better to go north, where the stunning Nungwi Beach is located.
The sorties to the capital of the same name are very exciting - in Stone Town (an ancient Arab-style district, where streets are shoulder-width narrow), the house where Freddie Mercury was born, the Anglican church, built on the site of the slave market and preserving creepy chambers with shackles, a pretty promenade with a traditional the night market.
- Tours to Zanzibar from Moscow cost from 125,000 rubles for two in 7 days
China
Relatively inexpensive winter vacations in China. By this time, the high season ends, package prices in early January are reduced.
Nevertheless, the weather in the southern regions allows sunbathing on the coast year-round: a beach holiday in Hainan in January will bring no less pleasure than in other months. The resort is loved by Russians, and it can be seen that the attendants in Chinese hotels, shops and restaurants often speak Russian.
Hainan Island in January
Package tours from Russia to China have been suspended.
The water in the water area of \u200b\u200bHainan Island all year round is about + 24 ° С ... + 25 ° С, powdery sand and the blooming nature of the tropics have a serene relaxation. The lack of a large influx of tourists will appeal to those who do not like crowds.
However, heading to Sanya in winter, grab long-sleeved clothing for the evening. It is cool at night, but still the climate remains comfortable in January. Recreation without a visa in Hainan, we recall, is possible only as part of a tour group, which is drawn up by a tour operator. If you fly on your own, you have to work with documents.
- In China, prices for weekly tickets start at 120,000 rubles for two. Departure from Moscow
Cuba
Reviews of tourists definitely recommend a “hot” Cuba for the visit. You can go here not only for a golden tan, but also for vivid impressions flavored with a good portion of rum, because here the day of the Cuban Revolution is celebrated on a grand scale.
The beginning of the new year does not promise the hottest weather. In the afternoon about + 25 ° С, the sea is warm + 24 ° С. For Cubans - real winter, for Russian people - summer is at its peak! Tune to the desired wave and excellent "all inclusive". 🙂

Holidays in Varadero
Beach holidays are best weather in Cuba in January contributes to Varadero. The air here warms up to + 28 ° C, and the number of sunny days exceeds the amount of cloudy. Sea temperature in January rarely drops below + 25 ° C.
Clean beaches, luxurious greenery, gentle waves are conducive to taking sea and sun baths, but in the evening you have to warm up a little. Or warm up with a glass of rum. 🙂
Maldives for the January holidays 2020
If saving is not about you, then welcome to the Maldives. In January, the islands are not crowded (due to the isolation of vacationers), and the service is still of the highest level.
The weather is ideal for beach people: water + 28 ° C, and air temperature + 27 ° C ... + 30 ° C. But it is worth noting that in the second half of the month the element is still more favorable.
Be prepared for the fact that the prices for permits for the New Year holidays are 2-3 times higher than on other days of this month. Although you can wait for the burning tour, the Maldives is a place where you can easily get abroad without a visa.
Tours are not cheap enough, but all the reviews come down to the fact that the quality corresponds to the declared price. Although in the Maldives you can spend holidays relatively inexpensively. Maafushi Atoll Island welcomes tourists with beautiful beaches, and you can get to it from Male Airport by ferry in 1.5 hours. The weather is excellent, as on other resort islands, but prices are much lower.
- Seven-day trips to the Maldives in January 2020 cost from 163,000 rubles for two people
Holidays in the UAE in january 2020
Walking along the Ras Al Khaimah in the UAE
A popular destination in the winter is the Emirates destination. However, tourists flock to the coast not because of the sea and the sun - in January the air temperature in the UAE averages + 21 ° C ... + 24 ° C; in principle, you can sunbathe at noon, but in the evening you will have to wrap yourself in warm clothes. They are attracted by New Year's festivities and grandiose fireworks, for which the Arab sheikhs spare no money.
The largest influx falls on the January holidays, but after a few days the hotels and beaches are not empty. In January, the heat-loving water in the UAE will not like it, because the temperature is only about + 20 ° C.
- Prices for tours in the UAE in January start from 51,000 rubles for two for 7 nights (second half of the month)

On the night of December 31, hundreds of thousands of prying eyes from different countries gather in the city to see the New Year fireworks. A tremendous sight was not once noted in the Guinness Book of Records! Fireworks illuminate the sky over all of Dubai: the epicenters of the explosions are at 25 points, and each is different in scale.
In the days after holidays, holidays will cost an order of magnitude cheaper - by 8-10 thousand rubles. Only one minus: Dubai is a resort where a beach holiday in January will not bring much pleasure, because get a swim in the pool at the hotel.

You can see immediately when the arrival, departure. You can choose your favorite tour operator. And the prices are very personal !! On a trip to Sochi, she sent her children first, and then persuaded an employee to rest. Everything is as clear and accessible as possible !! There is a hotline, you can call if that. But I did not have such a need. A nice bonus is a promotional code for IVI.
everything is very clear, the service is convenient, I selected / ordered / paid, the documents arrived on time, and it is also very nice that the service sends SMS notifications when everything is ready and when you need to collect at the airport and when back.
Everything is very good! Sumptuously! This is not the first time I've been using it. If the hotel has not confirmed availability, then they promptly offer options or immediately return the money. The best service! Well done!

I did not expect such a service! Choosing a tour and buying was very quick and easy. Even after the purchase, the whole trip with us was in touch with the managers on the phone. Our flight was rescheduled at a later time, and the entire waiting period was additionally informed, even we contacted the insurance to pay insurance for delayed flights. Well done, it was nice.
I am satisfied with the service for several reasons: 1. The declared price does not change. 2. Rest corresponds to the description. The first time we went budget, the second time spontaneously. In both cases, expectations were consistent with the proposal. 3. The mobile app confirmation system works perfectly. No problem.
I’m writing you the second review and if necessary, I’ll write the third one as well!

Friends, I don’t know how, but you created an amazing service. Such a customer focus and automation, I have not yet met. Everything is thought out to the smallest detail: an airplane, meals on board, a transfer at the airport, your letters, SMS with reminders and wishes, your support at every stage, this is powerful! It’s as if you had read my thoughts in front of you and before they even appeared in my head, you already sent answers to SMS.

Now only with you)) I thank your whole team for your work, care and support. I already recommend your service to your loved ones and one of my friends has already used your services)
