February may be the shortest month in the year – but you can still pack some serious travel into it. The hardest part will be deciding where to go in 2025.
Whether you need a restful break after the holiday season or an exhilarating adventure to kick-start your year, there’s a perfect destination just waiting for you. Here are some of our favorite places to go in February.
St Lucia
Best for beaches
Among Caribbean destinations vying for the “most romantic” crown, St Lucia has a couple of particularly enviable attributes: a roster of outstanding upmarket resorts that overlook gorgeous white-sand beaches lapped by the turquoise, bath-warm Caribbean, and a long heritage of cacao plantations fueling a passion for chocolate that’s been reignited in recent years.
February, when the air is coolest and clearest, is the time to fall in love with (or, indeed, in) its most sensuous pleasures.
Planning tip: Independence Day celebrations on February 22 include parades and local festivities – be prepared to party.

Montréal, Canada
Best for food
February in Montréal is cold, but the city is tailored to its climate and so is its eating scene. To inhale the extra calories you’ll need to function in these icy temperatures, try the classics: Montréal bagels and smoked-meat sandwiches – and (of course) poutine.
Yet Montréal is more diverse than ever, and its culinary offerings are similarly varied. Expect to taste Korean fried chicken, Haitian griot (fried pork chunks), Syrian kibbeh and more.

Mendoza, Argentina
Best for wine lovers
This is the most intoxicating time to visit the heart of Argentine wine country. Vineyards dominate here – every hillside is scored with vines – and in hot, sunny February they’ll be healthily heavy with fruit in anticipation of the March harvest.
A festive atmosphere reigns, with every bodega (and there are around 900) open for tours, tastings and celebrations. The leafy, plaza-dotted city of Mendoza makes a good base.
Singapore is a top destination for food. Shutterstock
Singapore
Best for street food
Warmth is guaranteed year-round in Singapore, with average temperatures a fairly consistent 27°C (81°F). February, however, is one of the driest months and – and if you come after Lunar New Year (a national holiday), things aren’t crazy busy.
Perhaps the chief reason to visit, though, is to eat. Hawker centers serve up phenomenal food in cheap, canteen-like settings, while top-end eateries are getting ever better.
Seek out chili crab, spicy rendang curry and a range of Nonya dishes, unique to the region.
Jackson Hole is a top place for skiers in February. Shutterstock
Wyoming, USA
Best for skiing
When snow cloaks the Cowboy State, special things happen. Skiers and boarders will love the Teton Mountains resort of Jackson Hole, nicknamed “The Big One” on account of its steep, thrilling terrain and great powder (driest and deepest in January and February). Further north, quite different thrills await in Yellowstone National Park. Heaving in summer, Yellowstone empties in winter. Park roads close, and the only ways to explore are via snow coach, snowmobile, cross-country skis or snowshoes.
Geysers and hot springs steam in the icy air, and animals congregate at the thermal areas for warmth.

Madeira, Portugal
Best for an island vacation
Madeira is an island without climatic extremes, but with plenty of topographical ones. Adrift in the Atlantic, closer to Morocco than to its Portuguese motherland, there’s barely any flatland to be found – every inch seems dramatically ruptured – and the sun shines all year round. Suffice it to say, in February, when most of Europe shivers, Madeira can bask in temperatures of up to 20°C (68°F), and even if it rains, there are so many microclimates that you can travel to a different spot and find better weather.
The mild winter is ideal for strolling the island’s network of levadas (old irrigation channels) or relaxing with a poncha (sugarcane-spirit cocktail) in an ocean-view bar. Madeira promises numerous activities, too, from trail running to mountain biking and canyoning.

Tanzania
Best for a safari
February is a great time to explore northern Tanzania, as herds of wildebeest cross the plains and zebras munch their way across the short grass of the southern Serengeti, stocking up on calories before giving birth, usually in early-to-mid February.
This short dry season also offers excellent birding, and some reserves such as Selous and Ruaha are relatively quiet, with lower rates at lodges. Make time for Olduvai Gorge – the famed “Cradle of Mankind” known for finds of early hominid remains – and the wildlife-dense Ngorongoro Crater.

Cambodia
Best for historic sites
Relax on the golden beaches of Sihanoukville, visit the floating villages of Tonlé Sap and allow a few days to wander the monuments of Angkor: the weather is dry and wonderful across Cambodia in February. Warmer than the early dry season (October to January) but not yet sweltering, this might be the best month for exploring the vast, UNESCO-listed Angkor complex.
Planning tip: Start in Siem Reap, granting Angkor the time it deserves. Then cruise on Tonlé Sap Lake. Head south for the haunting museums of Phnom Penh before beach time in Kep or Sihanoukville.

United Arab Emirates
Best for sun
The UAE awaits discovery in this relatively comfortable month, when daytime temperatures linger around the 24°C mark (75°F). Don’t just limit yourself to the resort strands of Dubai: seek out sandy stretches such as Black Palace Beach, Khor Fakkan, Jebel Ali or Dibba in Fujairah.
And cool off with some culture: explore the old center and forts of oasis city Al Ain; 10 millennia of history at the expansive Mleiha Archaeological Site; and the world-class museums and galleries of Sharjah and Abu Dhabi, including the magnificent, dome-covered Louvre.
Seeing polar bears in Churchill is an ultimate travel experience. Shutterstock
February’s dream trip: A polar-bear safari in Manitoba, Canada
Seeing polar bears from a distance is one thing. Seeing them approach your tundra vehicle is quite another. It often happens during polar-bear season in Churchill, a small Manitoba town on the southern edge of the Arctic that’s known as the polar bear capital of the world – and for good reason, since Canada is home to 60% of the world’s population.
Starting in August each year, the bears leave the sea ice and roam Hudson Bay’s three eco-zones: subarctic tundra, boreal forest and Arctic marine. If caught wandering into town, they land themselves in polar-bear jail where they are tagged and relocated.
The bears aren’t the only attraction, though. Churchill is also home to the largest beluga migration on earth when, from June to September, the bright white whales show up in western Hudson Bay. It’s also possible to see the northern lights up to 300 nights a year here; February to March is the best time.
Planning tip: As the largest land predators, polar bears are dangerous. Guided tours in polar rovers are the only way to see them safely.
