① Ideal American Cities to Visit Now

One of America’s finest beaches, Clearwater Beach, starts to warm up in March, making it ideal for true relaxation. At the end of March and beginning of April, the Pier 60 Sugar Sand Festival celebrates its 10th anniversary, featuring famous sand sculptures and family entertainment.

② A Hidden Gem of the Mediterranean

Malta is a hidden gem of the Mediterranean. If you’re an art enthusiast, you should definitely visit Malta this year. You can enjoy events, exhibitions, and festivals that are available more than ever before. This fall, a new modern art museum is scheduled to open inside the walls of an old fortress on the wharf, which is within a few minute’s walking distance from the center of Valletta. It will offer visitors an ambitious collection of international contemporary art.

③ Lesser-Known Overseas Destinations

Dry weather, temperatures in the mid-70s, and blooming jacaranda trees are what make a trip to Mexico City perfect in March. It’s a perfect period to explore the city’s neighborhoods, from trendy to historical, taste street food, and learn about its history. The Casa Azul, more than just a museum, is where Frida Kahlo spent her early life and time with Diego Rivera. Personal items, folk art, photos, books, and paintings of these two art geniuses offer a captivating experience.

Located in the Caribbean, this island is shared by the Netherlands and France. Visitors can easily cross the open border. In Sint Maarten (Dutch side), you can enjoy casinos, bars, shopping, and nightlife. In Saint Martin (French side), you can find excellent restaurants, beaches, and beautiful nature. There are plenty of travel experiences outside the island as well.

The Heineken Regatta, the largest regatta in the Caribbean (February 29 – March 3), attracts yacht fans from around the world. From March 11-18, the SXM Music Festival is held every year. Watersports, sailing, hiking, and ziplining are just a few of the many activities you can enjoy in Sint Maarten. Along with its mild average annual temperature of 81 °F (27.2 °C), the dry season from January to April is an ideal time to travel to this place. To visit here from Korea, you need to connect a flight from Dallas or Miami to Saint Martin.
