Autumn is a popular travel season, although some European destinations are now heading for the end of the season. But the selection of suitable destinations for a vacation in October is large, since now also many remote destinations move back into the focus. This is also clearly shown by our TOP4 list of the most popular destinations:
Cyprus and Tenerife are two European islands on the list of favourites. They are complemented by the bathing and diving paradise of Hurghada and the paradisiacal island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean.
The recommendations of our travel editors mainly include regions for which October is considered the absolute best travel time. Besides the Canary Islands, the two Cape Verde Islands Sal and Boa Vista are ideal for an autumn beach holiday. Salalah in Oman is also absolutely in vogue; it is already being acclaimed in the travel industry as the "Caribbean of the Orient". Comparatively cheap options are Malta and Egypt. Those who are drawn to the distance will find perfect conditions in Brazil or Bali.
