It’s a familiar dilemma in many families: When it comes to vacation, everyone has their own ideas. But luckily there are travel destinations that bring joy to both children and adults.
Taking a vacation that makes everyone in your family happy doesn’t always work out. The journey shouldn’t be too long, the temperatures shouldn’t be too high, the activities shouldn’t be too boring – and then of course you don’t want to spend a lot of money to have a good time.
We have collected six destinations that are ideal for family vacations.
The Netherlands is a paradise for families and is easy to reach by car from Germany. The country has very beautiful beaches and is family-friendly. Great destinations – not just for families, by the way – are Noordwijk or Zandvoort. Noordwijk is considered particularly clean, making it great for families with small children.
Anyone who lives in the north of Germany will know vacation in Denmark. But it’s also worth keeping Denmark on your radar as a travel destination from other parts of Germany.
Whether it’s a holiday home on the island of Fanø, which is only 50 kilometers north of the German border, or a trip to Søndervig or Blåvand Strand – many places on the North Sea are child-friendly. In general, people in Denmark are very open towards families. Unfortunately, the prices there have risen quite a bit in recent years. The following applies, especially when it comes to holiday homes: it’s worth booking early.
Gran Canaria and Fuerteventura are particularly suitable for a family holiday. The sandy beaches there are kilometers long and very child-friendly. Most families stay in one of the many family hotels and enjoy the all-round service.
We often forget it, but Germany is also a fantastic travel destination for family holidays. If you like the beach, you should consider a trip to the Baltic Sea. The Timmendorfer Strand, Travemünde or Rügen are popular destinations for families. Another advantage? In Germany the language barrier is completely eliminated.
Popular family vacation spots in Poland include Świnoujście, Międzyzdroje, Kołobrzeg and Gdańsk. They are located on the Polish Baltic Sea coast and impress with beautiful beaches.
Croatia is ideal for a vacation with the whole family in summer. It is located on the Adriatic and has many great beaches – especially sandy beaches are a paradise for children.
Crni Molo, Zlatni Rat, Punta Rata and Rajska Plaza are particularly beautiful. The prices are quite moderate compared to Italy. The connection for cars and also traveling by plane is also good.
