Outdoor IcelandSummer is the best time to visit Iceland. In addition to all the abundance of outdoor activities (including horseback riding, hiking to magnificent waterfalls and whale watching), it’s also puffin breading season and you can see millions of them in the hills of Heimaey.
Arctic Circle, Alaska
If you’ve ever wanted to visit the Arctic Circle, summer is probably the ideal time if you want to stay warmer than usual! With highs in the 40s and lows in the 30s, you’ll still need a warm winter coat, but your visit will be a nice break from the heat in the Lower 48.
Skiing in Argentina
Don’t let the long, hot days of summer get you snow bunnies down! Take a short flight from Buenos Aires and you’ll arrive in the Andes where South American skiing is at its best from June – September. Although with fewer crowds and lower cost for lift tickets, August is probably your best bet for great powder.
New Zealand
Head down under for your summer vacation and New Zealand will present you with no end of outdoor activities. Whether you’re heli-skiing and snowboarding on the North Island, or enjoying one of the many winter festivals in Queenstown, be sure to cap off your Kiwi adventure with a long soak in a geothermal pool in Rotorua.
Family Summer Camps in New England
Share fond memories of your own summers at camp with your kids this year! New England is chock full of fabulous camps that cater to kids and parents alike so you can show off your mad skills in archery, canoeing, basket weaving, and other fun stuff.
Shark Diving in South Africa
The best time to see sharks in South Africa is between May and September so it makes for an amazingly adventurous summer vacation! From Cape Town you’ll sail out into False Bay and see Great Whites at their most active and when visibility is especially clear.
