Weather in Europe

Weather in Southern Europe

Southern Europe features a Mediterranean climate, which is very similar to Israel but generally slightly cooler. Long daylight hours allow you to enjoy the warm sun and onboard activities. Occasionally, light summer rains might occur, but they pass quickly and do not affect the holiday experience.

Weather in the UK

The weather in the UK is known for changing quickly from day to day and sometimes during the day itself. The climate is influenced by the surrounding Atlantic Ocean. Winter in the UK is generally mild compared to Northern Europe. Spring and summer have high temperatures and long days, with occasional light showers.
