Warmest city in Europe in February
Hi,
I intend to travel through europe in February of next year. I was wondering if you can suggest a good tourist place which is warm (20 degrees centigrade or more) in mid-February. I wish to use the Euro rail for a maximum of 12hr ride one way. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks. |

A few places will be 10-15C during the day and 5-10C at night - basically the southern parts of Portugal, Spain, France and Italy. |

Whether Turkey's in Europe or not, it ain't that warm in winter. Unless you're including Tenerife etc., the del Sol east of Gib is about the winter warmest. Beats much of N. Africa. My ideal warm winter place - Aswan. Surreyman |

I think that is probably the warmest section of european mainland turkey. |

Well, these four destinations are technically a part of Europe (or, at leat, the EU): R�union, Guadeloupe, Martinique and French Guiana. They might be the warmest parts of "Europe" in February. >I wish to use the Euro > rail for a maximum of 12hr ride one way. Any suggestions will be highly > appreciated. This might cause some problems... :-) SCRN, Robert |

As working for the mail I'm used to the terms D.O.M and T.O.M Departments d'Outre Mere and Territories d'Outre Mere. D.O.M is directed directly to Paris while T.O.M must be send separately. So the overseas departments are Guadeloupe,Martinique and French Guiana while the overseas territories are Mayotte,Saint-Pierre and Miquelon. There're also a number of areas with dependency to France as French Polynesia,New Caledonia,Wallis Futuna and others . AFAIK the overseas departments aren't inside the Schengen area thus it's reasonable that you've to show a passport on entry. I would guess it's enough with an id for a French citizen. However no-one asked for passport on my arrival to Guadeloupe from Frankfurt. |
