What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of good weather for your vacation? What can you say about a temperature of 21-26 degrees Celsius and a cloudless sky? If such prospects make you bask in anticipation, then we suggest you find out about 10 places in the world where such a blessed climate lasts all year round, well, maybe give or take a few degrees.
San Diego, USA
Santa Barbara, USA
Another tourist destination on the US West Coast that is known for excellent weather all year round is Santa Barbara. This pleasant, historic city is the gateway to California's scenic central coastline. Winter temperatures are only 10 degrees below the pleasant summer temperature of 20-25 degrees, and for an evening walk in December or January, just a light jacket is enough. Santa Barbara still has slightly more rainfall than San Diego, but this only helps to highlight the local scenic and flowering landscape. This historic city, where red brick pedestrian streets have preserved the spirit of the era of the Spanish conquest, is likely to remain an attractive destination for eco-tourists, even as the summertime becomes hotter and the winters are colder.
Canary Islands, Spain
This popular Spanish archipelago is located off the west coast of Africa. Due to the many high mountains, the climate in the Canary Islands is somewhat different. However, the weather remains pleasant all year round in most of the coastal areas that overlook the Atlantic side of the archipelago. In summer, temperatures rarely rise to 26 degrees, while winter visitors will continue to enjoy daytime temperatures as high as 21 degrees. Apart from a few exceptions (namely the northern part of the island of Tenerife), the local climate is quite arid and sunny, which gave the islands the name "Land of Eternal Spring". In the Portuguese archipelago of Madeira, also located in the Atlantic Ocean off the African coast, you can enjoy a similar temperature, but it is much wetter (albeit greener) than in the Canary Islands.
Malaga, Spain
This city in the autonomous Spanish province of Andalusia is literally bathed in sunshine, even with an average of six hours of sunshine a day during the wetter winter months. In July and August noon, the temperature rises to 30 degrees, but summer is the driest time of the year, and therefore this weather is accompanied by very low humidity. On winter nights, the temperature drops to 10, but in the daytime the mercury column returns to 16 degrees. Hosts and visitors alike can take advantage of the favorable climate on the countless pedestrianized streets filled with shops. Malaga has a rich history, and in the architecture of the city you can see both traces of the Roman and Moorish eras, as well as modern buildings.

Sao Paulo, Brazil
São Paulo is not the most famous Brazilian city, but it is the largest. Due to its location far from water and quite high above sea level, this huge metropolis can boast of almost the most pleasant weather of any city in the country. During the year, the average temperature changes little, in January and February it rises only to 27 degrees, while in July and August it does not drop below 20. This is very different from the city of Rio and other coastal areas that melt under the sun during the summer months. Southern Hemisphere. São Paulo is certainly not the driest city on our list, but most of the rainfall occurs during the warmer months, and the city remains largely unaffected by severe storms.
Sydney, Australia
Australia is known as a land of extremes, but away from the tropical north and the rugged deserts of the continent, the weather is pleasant. Winters are cool, but never cold, and temperatures along the southern and southeastern coasts rarely rise above a comfortable level in summer. Sydney, Australia's largest city, boasts summer temperatures around 20 degrees on average. During winter periods it rarely drops below 10 degrees, and during the daytime it stays within 20 the weather conditions while visiting Sydney are extremely great.
Kunming, China
China is a very diverse and amazing travel destination, but the weather here is far from ideal for most of the year. Tourists sweat desperately in summer Beijing and are forced to pack backpacks for winter vacations in many cities in the Middle Empire. Kunming is an exception. This metropolis in Yunnan province enjoys the advantage of being located high above sea level (over 1,800 meters) and the surrounding nature. During most of the heat peaks, the temperature remains at around 30 degrees, while the average in the summer is 21-26 degrees. Due to its height, the mercury column can drop below freezing on winter nights, but even on December and January days, it returns to around 15 degrees Celsius. Thanks to the pleasant weather, the city of Kunming has been given the same name as a number of other places on our list - "City of Eternal Spring".
Lihue, Hawaii
The weather in Hawaii does not change much throughout the year. While this American state is by far the warmest in terms of annual temperatures, it never gets very hot there. In cities like Honolulu, a maximum of 30 degrees is the norm in summer, but in smaller cities like Hilo on the Big Island and Lihue in Kauai County, 26 is the average limit. In Lihue, the highest temperature ever recorded was only 32 degrees. As any person who has spent quite a long time on the islands can tell you, it rains often there, but most of the rain falls in the form of a light and short-lived rainstorm. There are also severe storms, with most cities experiencing severe weather several times a year, mostly during the winter months. However, a Hawaiian vacation is unlikely to ever fail, and temperatures are bound to stay in the pleasant range between too hot and too cool.
Medellin, Colombia
The Colombian city of Medellin, located at almost 1,500 meters above sea level, can offer almost ideal temperatures all year round. Average fluctuations are only about 4 degrees, while temperatures remain within 27 throughout the year. Whenever you visit this place, at night the mercury column will drop to about 15. Due to the location, it rains often there, and therefore the umbrella should become an indispensable attribute. But the Colombian vacation isn't going to be a complete failure. Medellin was once the most notorious city on Earth, as it was controlled by powerful drug cartels and aggressive street gangs. However, over the past 15 years, there has literally been a revolution here, and now tourists can safely visit the city and the picturesque mountain landscapes around it.
Durban, South Africa
Durban, a thriving city on the east coast of South Africa, is a popular holiday destination for its expansive beaches and pleasant temperatures. In the summertime of the Southern Hemisphere, the local temperature reaches 30 degrees, and it often rains. However, storms usually happen in the afternoons and evenings, which means it's dry in the daytime. The winter months are also warm and sunny, with temperatures rising to 23 degrees during the daytime, and there is little chance of rain. The temperate climate means that any time of the year is quite suitable for visiting, but the winter months from June to August are especially pleasant in Durban.
Someone is not averse to taking a walk in the rain, someone calmly endures the forty-degree heat, and someone is attracted by the equatorial humidity - everyone has their own good weather. There are even those who like to freeze. In the article, we adhere to certain criteria, “soft” means “moderate”: cool summers, not frosty winters and minimal rainfall.
It is worth paying attention to the geography: of course, in such large countries as France, the climate in different regions is very different, so we made the necessary clarifications.
Southern france
The weather in the largest country in western Europe is generally mild and warm all year round. Although, in different areas it depends on factors such as mountains and proximity to the sea. Nevertheless, there is almost no minus on the thermometer.
With the arrival of spring, there are more and more sunny days, and in May the Cote d'Azur is already full of vacationers. The swimming season lasts until October.

The Russian Federation is territorially the largest country in the world, which covers an area of 17,125,187 km2 and is located mainly in the northern part of Eurasia. It covers 4 climatic zones: arctic, subarctic, temperate and subtropical.
The most favorable climate for human life and activity is, as you might guess from the name, moderate, because everything in it is in moderation - temperature, precipitation, wind, solar exposure, atmospheric pressure, etc. It covers the predominant part of Russia where the majority of the population is concentrated.
However, not everything is so rosy, because in every territory, even in the temperate zone, the location of the seas, oceans, underlying surface, mountains, etc. have their influence. Specialists in environmental meteorology (formerly bioclimatology) have long identified the main factors that form a positive or negative influence climate per person.One of the first main ones is considered, which a person needs to receive in a year at least 45 "doses"... The sun's rays strengthen the immune system, destroy microorganisms on the skin, prevent the development of rickets, its effect on growing children is especially important.
Ultraviolet exposure to the human body can be compared to plants that bloom in the sun and grow poorly in full shade. The next factor is the influence of the temperature regime, it is reflected in heat transfer and heat generation, and, accordingly, in the intensity of the work of internal organs.
The person feels normal at 19-20 ° C in clothes and at 28-31 ° C- without it, then there will be a balance between heat generation and return, and, as a result, the normal activity of the human body.
Mountain ranges and ridges in the Russian Federation create a mountainous climate, where air purity is the best, absolute humidity, increased solar radiation and low pressure. The latter indicator is not suitable for people suffering from cardiovascular diseases and having problems with intracranial pressure.
Another important factor that creates a favorable climate is evaporation, that is, a moderate amount of atmospheric precipitation, which allows you to soften the air and prevent drought. In this case, the body can moderately sweat without feeling stuffy. The carried out statistical analyzes revealed the most comfortable zone of climatic comfort - it is 20-25 ° С, depending on the winds and moisture of each region.
Based on these results, we can say that the most favorable climate in Russia is the Azov, Black Sea, Caspian coasts, the west of the European part of Russia, where day-to-day temperature fluctuations do not exceed 1-3 ° C, atmospheric pressure does not "jump", mountains that protect against strong winds, warm air masses from the sea prevail, the sun shines at least 300 days a year.
Slightly less, but still favorable are the middle zone of Russia with a temperate continental climate, the mountains and south of Siberia, the North Caucasus, the southern part of the Urals.
If you decide to move or go on vacation, then be prepared for acclimatization, especially if you decide to visit the subtropical Black Sea coast of Russia from the northern part of Russia. Perhaps, for the first time, you should choose a resort closer to Central Russia with temperate continental climatic conditions, which will protect the body from a sharp change in conditions.

To answer the question "What places with the best climate in the world?" first we need to clarify what we mean by “better climate”, because most people would probably give different answers. Some prefer warmer weather, while others prefer cooler climates.
In essence, the best should be the one that is easier to carry from the body in the year and does not need any serious adaptation to extreme temperatures. The best climate should not be too humid or too cold or warm.
Places should be unaffected by extreme weather events like regular floods, hurricanes, heat waves, blizzards and others. We must also be completely objective. The places that travel magazines advertise as pieces of paradise are truly fabulous, but very often the climate is too hot or humid.
We have tried to choose the places in such a way that their climate is the most healthy. Very often, when it comes to the best climate, everyone remembers the Caribbean in the first place. Yes, the weather is really wonderful there, but the summer half of the year is too rainy and the region often falls prey to hurricanes.
During the summer months, holidays in the Caribbean can be hit hard by rain and tropical storms. In general, the most popular tourist destinations do not always have the best weather conditions. You will probably notice that most of these areas are either extremely densely populated or a popular tourist destination.
And it cannot be otherwise - after all, the weather is of paramount importance. You may also notice that almost all places that claim to have the most pleasant climate are located near a large water basin (sea or ocean). This is no coincidence. Around large water basins, the weather is usually the mildest and most pleasant.
1. Canary Islands. They are located off the coast of Africa, the Canary Islands are Spanish possession. They enjoy probably the best climate you can imagine. Here is an eternal summer, or rather an eternal spring. Usually the places that are located south of the 30th parallel have a very hot tropical climate, but these islands are no exception.
The cold Canary Current cools the islands as ocean temperatures range from 19-25 degrees throughout the year, preventing temperatures from getting too high or low. In summer, the daytime temperature is about 26 ° C, and in winter about 21. The weather is very easily tolerated even by the most pretentious people.
In most places it is generally not rainy, so at any time of the year, if you eat, it is unlikely that the rains will ruin your holiday. An exception is the northern part of Tenerife, which tolerates quite heavy rains, and sometimes rainy days reach up to 15 per month.
There are no hurricanes because they form in water bodies that are too warm, and here the ocean water is at a moderate temperature. The annual temperature amplitudes are rather small, and the islands do not experience either cold or heat. And in addition, it is good to know that the Canary Islands are among the places with the cleanest air and lowest dust content on the planet.
2. Located near the equator, the second largest city in Kenya and neighboring resorts enjoy luxurious weather all year round. Here, from January to December, it is always around 25-30 ° C. No more, no less.
It is almost always partly cloudy here, which reminds you that you are at the equator and should always be prepared for a little rain.
Light cloudiness makes the weather feel a little cooler - around 24-26 ° C throughout the year, as we know that it is the sun that makes the heat difficult to bear. In addition, near the equator, the weather is usually almost never windy. In general, the conditions are ideal for tourism and recreation all year round.
3. Hawaiian Islands. Hawaii is the sunniest and warmest American state, but without the extreme high temperatures in summer. There is no rainy season, no hurricanes and generally no adverse weather conditions. Dust in Hawaii is very low, similar to the Canary Islands.
The location of the islands in the very center of the Pacific Ocean contributes mainly to the mild climate. This lives up to Hawaii's fame as one of the top travel destinations. Temperatures here range from 26 to 30 ° C throughout the year. In winter, the amount of precipitation increases slightly, but is generally normal throughout the year.
4. Costa Rica. Similar to Kenya, Costa Rica also has a very pleasant warm subequatorial climate. Temperatures are constant - all year round between 24 and 26 ° C, which makes the country extremely popular for people looking for a tropical paradise to buy property.
The climate is humid, but precipitation is usually short. Days when there is no sun are almost rare. You will feel comfortable without feeling the weather is too warm or cold.
5. Located near the equator in the water of the Pacific Ocean, the Galapagos Islands enjoy an excellent equatorial climate. Temperatures range from 21 to 28 ° C. The weather is usually relatively dry. The first 6 months of the year are warmer and slightly wetter.
The excellent climatic conditions are one of the reasons why the exceptional flora and fauna flourish here. The climate of the Galapagos is very easily tolerated by tourists as there are no extreme costs. In addition, there are no hurricanes here, and the water of the Pacific Ocean has very pleasant moderate temperatures.
6. Bermuda. Bermuda is one of the places in the world with the best climate. They are located quite in the north in the subtropics, but have a mild and not very hot tropical climate. The reason lies in the warm Gulf Stream, which brings warm waters far to Europe.
Temperatures here range from 21 ° C in January to 30 ° C in August. The ocean acts as a natural air conditioner and the degrees are at a pleasant level.
7. The capital of Mexico has a cool tropical mountain climate. The high altitude saves the city from the unbearable heat typical of the tropics. Temperatures here range from 21 to no more than 27 ° C with heavy rainfall during the summer months.
The warmest weather is in May and the coldest in December. The mild climate is one of the reasons for the huge population of the Mexican capital.
8. Sao Paulo. The largest Brazilian city is located in the tropics of South America. It is located on a high plateau close to the ocean. Although Rio de Janeiro is at almost the same latitude, São Paulo has a much cooler and milder climate.
Temperatures here vary from 22 to 27 ° C throughout the year. Both Mexico City and São Paulo have such a large population, to some extent due to its mild climate.
9. Costa del Sol. Spain's southernmost coast is a popular winter destination for millions of Europeans, as well as people from colder countries around the world.
The Mediterranean coast of Andalusia is the warmest and sunniest place in Europe. Unlike the Caribbean, it has a short winter, but in fact 2-3 months with daytime temperatures around 17-18 degrees are easier to tolerate than 6 months of the rainy season.
The Mediterranean Sea is strongly influenced by maintaining pleasant and healthy temperatures throughout the year. Even according to some scientists, along the very coast of the Costa del Sole, there is a tropical microclimate, the temperatures of which are abnormally high for Europe. Summers are very warm with temperatures around 29 ° C. The climate is generally quite dry and sunshine is plentiful 12 months of the year.
10. San Diego. The southernmost of all Pacific cities in the United States, San Diego, has a wonderful climate influenced by the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. The cold streams that pass near California make summers pleasant without much heat. At the same time, the constant ocean temperature keeps the winter values relatively high.
Temperatures in the city range from 19 to 25 ° C and the weather is sunny and dry throughout the year. The local climate bears a striking resemblance to that of the southern Spanish province of Andalusia.
San Diego's pleasant climate is featured in many Hollywood films and is the reason why many wealthy Americans live here.
