Traveling to Europe to see its famous monuments like the Eiffel Tower in Paris and the Colosseum（古罗马竞技场）in Rome,is not exactly the ideal vacation for kids. Fortunately,Europehas more to offer than lots of old churches and ancient history. You can enjoy some fun in the sun at some of the famous beaches of the continent. 

Mykonos,Greece

The closer you get to the equator, the longer the beach season and Greece is wonderful for that. You can enjoy beautiful green water, public chairs and lovely umbrellas at the beaches inMykonos.

Dubrovnik,Croatia

There’s nothing more attractive than the beautiful beaches bordering Dubrovnik,Croatia’s most beautiful city. It’s surrounded by stone walls 1ike a castle. It almost makes you feel like you’re suntanning (晒黑皮肤) at Hogwarts, where the hero Harry Porter of the story is trained!

Sicily, Italy

Rabbit beach on the islandofSicily offers shallow, crystal clear waters, making it a perfect beach for families with young children. And if you want to add interest to your experience, try snorkeling (徒手潜水).

Nice, France

Lined with palm trees and first-class hotels, the city of Nice, located on the French Riviera, offers a whole coastline of Mediterranean beaches. Because they’re in the heart of the city, these beaches attract a large crowd. So if you’re looking for something more private, you’ll have to travel a few miles outside of the city center. 

Ribadeo,Spain

At low tide, Playa de las Catedrales in Ribadeo,Spain, is the perfect beach to take in the natural wonders without urban amusements like restaurants, bars or huge crowds. It boasts beautiful wildflowers and unique rock formations, making it truly picture worthy.

Kids Flying Alone Guide

Before the flight：

Try to book a morning flight. If it is delayed or canceled, you have the rest of the day to make alternate plans.

Make sure your child doesnˈt wear any clothing that has his or her name on it, which could make it easier for a stranger to convince a child that they can be trusted.

At the airport：

Make sure the flight attendants know that your child is traveling alone. Make sure that he or she will be seated in an area of the aircraft thatˈs convenient for attendants to keep an eye on—the very front or very back of the aircraft is ideal.

Register your childˈs travel plans with the U．S. State Department, which can provide assistance in an emergency. This is a free service.

What to pack：

Cell phone: If your child doesnˈt have a cell phone, buy him or her a pay­as­you­go phone at a cell phone retailer so he or she has an easy form of communication for emergencies.

Gift cards: Invest in a few pre­paid gift cards worth $25 or $50. This will reduce the worry of traveling with a large amount of cash.

Family/Friends contact information: Give your child a complete list of names, telephone numbers and addresses of the people who are picking your child up at the airport.
