Try the south coast of Spain, Costa del Sol. We went in early November and it was the start of their winter so accommodation was inexpensive and there were no crowds to fight. Temperatures were in the low 20's. Day trip to Gibralter and other sights around.

Depends what you want to do.
But I loved Dubrovnik out of everywhere I've been.

The Galápagos Islands, especially Isabela, are awesome. Beachy but still interesting and different.

southern portugal

In the winter, I'd skip Europe unless i was going to visit a bunch of hot springs (Hungary and Turkey). That would be fantastic. Or in Japan, same deal.
Consider Vietnam, Hong Kong, Cambodia, etc! Not a beach vacation but a cultural one. Go see Angkor Wat, the ancient city of Hue, get some fancy new clothes tailored in Hoi An!

Portugal. ..Lisbon,Porto,Cascais those are all Beautiful. As well Santorini, Greece. Can't go wrong with Italy.
Nadine
I lived for 5 months in Guanajuato, central Mexico. Very cool and historic place. Maybe not enough for a full 2 weeks but you could also visit Mexico city and it would be a culturally rich trip.

Portugal was awesome and good value for the dollar., it had it all ,beaches ,history with castles and palaces and best of all was the food and wine.

Weather is not necessarily the best in winter in Santorini, Italy or Portugal- can get stormy- what about the Canary Isles? Just off the west coast of North Africa? Lovely:)
Bonnie
Another great suggestion! Thanks Susan

1. Explore the Enchanting Northern Lights
Nothing screams winter magic quite like witnessing the mesmerizing Northern Lights dance across the night sky. Consider destinations like Iceland, Finland, or Norway, where you can cozy up in a glass igloo or embark on a thrilling dogsledding expedition. Imagine yourself surrounded by snow-capped landscapes and the ethereal colors of the Aurora Borealis painting the heavens above.

If you're a ski or snowboard enthusiast, a winter vacation in the mountains is an absolute must.

Carve through fresh powder, soak in the stunning alpine vistas, and après-ski in cozy mountain lodges – the ultimate winter playground awaits.
3. Discover the Magical World of Ice Hotels
Step into a true winter wonderland by staying in an ice hotel. These remarkable structures, meticulously crafted from frozen water, offer a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From Sweden's iconic ICEHOTEL to the enchanting ice hotels of Canada or Norway, you'll be surrounded by intricate ice sculptures, sleep on ice beds, and even enjoy cocktails served in ice glasses. It's a surreal adventure that will leave you in awe.

We are looking for some suggestions as to where to go for a 2 week vacation this winter. We've done the beach vacation many times, so we are interested in trying something else.
