How it works
Step 1
Start from where you are
Share your location or type a town. Pick the days you are free and how far you are willing to travel.
Step 2
Every place within reach
We compare the forecast at home with hundreds of places across Europe: sunshine hours, daytime high, rain.
Step 3
A straight answer
Extra sun is weighed against travel time. You get a clear verdict — including when staying home is the smart call.
Built to be honest about the weather
- It tells you when to stay. If home is just as good, you will hear it. No sending you three hours away for one extra hour of sun.
- It says how sure it is. Forecasts a week out are shown as less certain than tomorrow’s, because they are.
- Rankings are not for sale. Some booking links earn us a commission, but the order depends only on weather and travel time.
