We have all heard it before. April showers brings May travelers…ok, and May flowers, of course. As the April showers dry up, winter outdoor adventures have ended for the season, flowers are peeking out of the soil and days are getting longer. With May approaching, you might be getting excited about heading outdoors for spring travel and activities. It’s spring! There are many reasons why spring is a great time to travel.
Spring Travel Doesn’t Have to Only Mean Spring Break
Possibly traveling for the first time in over a year. Maybe you didn’t want to venture out during this spring break season due to the crowds and potential COVID risks. But there is so much more to spring travel.
Fewer Crowds
Yes, during the typical spring break period there can be lots of crowds. But outside of that period, crowds can be smaller during spring than the summer vacation months. With less crowds, you can enjoy your vacation even more.
Mild Temperatures
The weather can be very pleasant in the spring. You shed the winter coats, but don’t have to deal with the summer heat. Temperatures can be very mild, so it’s the perfect time to get out to enjoy the fresh air.
Cheaper Prices
You may get better prices on your travel since it may not be peak season for some of your favorite destinations. Also, as the travel industry recovers from the impact of the pandemic, this spring may bring additional discounts. For those who opt to travel close to home, you may find even more savings as well.
Nature Explosion
Springtime is when the flowers start to bloom. You see the beautiful colors and the fragrant smells of the flowers. Think cherry blossoms! Hiking trails, parks and farmers markets also reopen, giving you the chance to explore and exercise. Activities at lakes start to come alive.
Now is a good time to check out what is out there for spring travel. Of course, still be mindful of COVID restrictions and recommendations for staying safe when traveling.
