Places to go for vacation in march
Finding the best vacation in march is really important. Because you are a people, and have human wants and needs, such as visiting a diversity of places and experiencing different cultures. A lot of the time, though, it’s hard to know how to pick a vacation destination. That’s why I’ve compiled this list of the best vacation destinations on Earth at this very moment:
March is a great month for vacation. The weather isn’t too hot, but it’s not too cold either. March is also the month of St. Patrick’s Day, which means there will be lots of parties and festivals to attend.
The best part of March is that you can still see some of the winter sports if you want to go skiing or snowboarding without having to deal with crowds.
If you’re looking for a good time, check out the following destinations:
Ireland
A visit to Ireland in March is perfectly timed for spring, St. Patrick’s Day, and the centennial anniversary of the first Irish Constitution that was signed at The Shelbourne in Dublin. You can stay in the historic hotel today, located on St. Stephen’s Green. After exploring Dublin, head to County Limerick for a stay at the plush Adare Manor, set on 840 countryside acres with a Michelin-starred restaurant, golf course, spa, and magnificent grounds.
In County Clare, Dromoland Castle is another magical place, with a history dating to the 16th century, lavish décor, world-class golf, and superb cuisine. Ballyfin, a luxurious and intimate country house hotel with twenty bedrooms, is set in the center of Ireland at the foot of the Slieve Bloom Mountains.
Bogotá, Colombia
Comfortable temperatures in the high 60s and dry March weather make this an ideal time to visit Bogotá. Estéreo Picnic from March 25-27, a mega music festival with popular alternative performers, is another reason to head to South America.
The Ibero-American Theater Festival from March 16-April 1 is one of the largest performing arts festivals in the world, with international theater companies and celebrations throughout the city.
Even if you don’t travel to Bogotá for a festival, you’ll find plenty to do exploring street art, strolling through the historic downtown La Candelaria section, and visiting the capital city’s museums. One of the best known is the Museo del Oro, with a huge collection of gold from Colombia’s pre-Hispanic era.
Seychelles
Located in the western Indian Ocean about 1,000 miles east of Kenya, the Seychelles, an independent republic and a member of the British Commonwealth, consists of 115 islands. Known for beautiful beaches, world-class diving and snorkeling, water sports, fishing, and marine life, the islands offer nature reserves, museums, marine national parks, and luxurious hotels.
