No summer holliers booked just yet? Fret not, fellow last-minute sun seeker.
Trying to decide where you should jet off to for the summer requires some serious thinking. Will the food be good? Are there many Insta opportunities? Will you return from the holiday absolutely broke and living off noodles for the next six months?
June is a good time to head off as it’s not yet peak holiday season (most of the Mediterranean countries take their hols in August) and it’s close enough that you can start getting excited like, now.
Here’s 10 places in Europe that are ideal for a little June jaunt…
1. Croatia
White sandy beaches, fresh seafood and the opportunity to go island hopping? Yes please.

10. Slovenia
Lake Bled doesn’t even look real, it’s that scenic. You can be as active or as lazy as you want here. Row out to Bled Island to see that famous church or take a half-day trip to crashing waterfalls.
