March marks the beginning of spring in many parts of the world, making it an ideal month to shake off winter fatigue and embrace travel adventures. From tropical beaches to vibrant cultural festivals, March offers a variety of experiences tailored to all kinds of travelers. Whether you’re craving sunshine, adventure, or tranquility, this guide to the best places to travel in March will inspire your next unforgettable escape.
1. Japan – Cherry Blossom Beginnings
March in Japan signals the start of cherry blossom season. While full bloom typically hits in April, southern cities like Fukuoka and Tokyo begin to blossom in late March. The country comes alive with hanami (flower viewing) parties, food stalls, and scenic beauty. It’s also a great time to visit temples and castles before peak tourist crowds arrive.
2. Morocco – A Springtime Desert Dream
For those seeking warmth, culture, and adventure, Morocco is a perfect March destination. Cities like Marrakech and Fez offer vibrant markets, historic architecture, and exotic cuisine. The Sahara Desert is cooler this time of year, making it an ideal moment for camel treks and stargazing under crystal-clear skies.
3. India – Colorful Celebrations and Spiritual Journeys
India in March is alive with festivals, the most famous being Holi—the Festival of Colors. Cities like Jaipur, Mathura, and Delhi offer unforgettable experiences as locals and tourists celebrate with music, dance, and colored powders. Weather-wise, it’s also one of the most pleasant months for exploring the Taj Mahal, Kerala backwaters, or Himalayan foothills.
4. Iceland – The Last Glimpse of the Northern Lights
March is your last chance to see the magical aurora borealis in Iceland before the days get too long. Alongside the northern lights, visitors can enjoy glacier hiking, hot springs, and stunning landscapes. With fewer tourists than in the summer, you get the magic of Iceland with a bit more peace.
5. Mexico – Sun, Sand, and Culture
March is perfect for beach lovers and culture enthusiasts alike. Head to Cancun or Tulum for sun-soaked days and crystal-clear waters. Or explore historic cities like Oaxaca and Mexico City where art, food, and history collide. Plus, spring equinox events at Chichén Itzá draw thousands to witness the serpent-shaped shadow climb the Mayan pyramid.
