Beat the heat with a European holiday in May
Before the intense sun and boatloads of tourists settle in for the summer season, find time in May to visit some of Europe's top destinations. Visit Spain to bask in balmy weather or explore the Moorish architecture of its major cities. If you’re keen to get your steps in before the peak mid-year heat, hike up the ruins of the old coastal cities of Croatia or get lost in the fortresses, temples and stunning landscapes of the central Mediterranean wonder that is Malta.
