Although Europe is a year-round travel destination, the best time to visit Europe is during the summer months of June to September. This is the time when the sun is high, the beaches are warm and the weather is sunny. This is also the time when most of the countries boast of cultural events, galas and even end of season fashion sale. Summer is also an ideal time for hikes, road trips and adventure activities. It has a variety of climates, but most of the continent has mild weather, in fact milder than parts of Asia and North America at the same latitude. The mild weather is due to the winds that blow across the continent from the Atlantic Ocean.
