ISLE SEAT

June is a sublime time to be in the Balearic islands, with comfortable temperatures and minimal crowds. On 25 June, Classic Collection has a week-long option on Mallorca – the largest of the three-island chain – for £799pp. Based at the five-star Iberostar Son Antem, the package includes breakfast and Monarch flights from Gatwick (classic-collection.co.uk).

BLUES CRUISE

On 22 June, Hayes & Jarvis has an eight-night road trip that combines two of America's key musical cities for £1,299pp. Departing with Delta flights from Heathrow, the holiday includes car hire and a four-night stay in New Orleans at the Hilton Riverside, followed by four nights in Memphis at the Doubletree Downtown, both on a room-only basis (hayesandjarvis.co.uk).

WAVE HELLO

In July and August, sea breezes roll over the east and south coasts of Mauritius, making it an ideal time for windsurfers to visit. For travel from 1-22 July, Travelbag has a seven-night deal at the five-star Heritage Le Telfair in Bel Ombre on the southern shore, with full-board meals and Emirates flights from Gatwick via Dubai for £1,349pp. Book by 14 July (travelbag.co.uk).

SEPTEMBER SUN

Wait until September and there's a week on the Greek Island of Kos for £599pp. The deal, with Inspired Luxury Escapes, includes a stay in a sea-view room at the Michaelangelo Hotel & Spa in Agios Fokas, with half-board meals and easyJet flights from Gatwick included (inspiredluxuryescapes.com).
