Looking for a any suggestion for a holiday in late August, early Sept.

Couple mid 30s no kids.....dont want a 'typical' sun holiday in a apartment in a modern complex. I want sun and OH wants a bit of activity....I was thinking maybe sailing lessons somewhere...or Canada but i don't think it will be warm enough for me.....Literally any suggestions welcome as we haven't a clue where we want to go.

Not too expensive and we are going for 2 weeks
thanks
 
Have you thought about a cruise? Kirsty and Phil on their new vacation show did a recent programme about them, it struck me that you could take it easy and just sunbathe, swim etc whilst also having the option of water sport activities, exploring new cities/towns when you dock etc. Might be an idea
 
Thanks for the suggestions.

A cruise is out of the questions. the OH would rather work for 2 weeks then go on one

Slovenia....i like that idea. I might look into that...thanks
 
Went to Romania a few years a ago -- plenty to see & do in Transilvania & then BlackSea for a bit of beach -- not sure what weather would be like that time of the year though
 
A friend of mine recently went to Croatia and Montenegro. Lots of sailing, fab countryside. I was very envious.
 
The west coast of the USA is brill .If you have no kids consider a house swap!
 
I would recommend a gite in the Dordogne. Plenty of sightseeing and kayaking and great food and weather. Slim
 
Italian lakes. Maggiore is half in Italy and half in Switzerland. See a bit of both by travelling up and down the lakes. Just some sun on deck in between visits to small interesting towns.
 
Try either a home exchange or rent an apartment in Nice.

Apartments tend to be housed in beautiful old buildings. Fabulous part of France.perfect for your age group as the town itself is beautiful and has terrific nightlife. You then have the beaches all along the coast down to Cannes and San Tropez etc. You can travel all the way into Italy on the other side taking in Monaco on the French side and then on to San Remo. Great train service and you can travel anywhere on the buses for just a euro. Think you will enjoy as the weather there in early Sept is usually very good.
 
I did a multi activity holiday in Trilj, Croatia and really enjoyed it. Or how about diving in Sharm El sheikh?
 
Thanks for all the suggestions....there is a few good ideas to start looking at now
 
Cruise to somewhere different than the sun, we went on alaska cruise last year. cant beat it ..
 
What about the cairbeen very nice island with a lot of watersport or what about Vinteam and do a touring hoilday it looks very nice have been looking at prices of that myself.and it looks lovely
 
Fly to Nice, rent a car and do the Med! Cannes, Monte Carlo, Antibes pop across to San Remo in Italy too.
 
Barcelona ticks all of the boxes. Great climate and lots to do. Great walking city too.
