With spring in the air and the winter months finally behind us, March is the perfect time to embrace the changing seasons and step out of hibernation for an adventure.

Whether you're eager to discover a new and exotic culture or looking to make the most of the settled snow, March offers the ideal opportunity to broaden your horizons and set off on a memorable journey.

From theme parks with rollercoasters to ancient cities and cultures, here are some of our top destinations to enjoy in March.

Saint Lucia

March is the perfect time to enjoy the idyllic beaches of Saint Lucia. You can relax on their white sand with a cocktail in hand or take a dip in the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea. The island is blessed with sunny days and warm evenings perfect for beach front dining. With low humidity and the year's lowest average rainfall, March also provides the perfect conditions for outdoor adventures. Hike Saint Lucia’s iconic Pitons for breathtaking views or admire them from the comfort of a catamaran cruise.


Whether you are looking for a mountain boutique, an all inclusive couples retreat or a family friendly beach hotel, Saint Lucia has a wide range of accommodation options to suit every taste and budget. For an extended trip, why not consider a multi centre holiday combining your stay in Saint Lucia with another picturesque island. The whole of the Caribbean will be experiencing similarly fabulous weather! Alternatively, pair your beach escape with a stopover in one of the USA’s vibrant cities for the perfect blend of sightseeing and relaxation.
