Option 1: The return of gentle sunshine to the French Riviera
It is the number one answer to the question « where to go in March for sun in France? ». Winter already feels far away on the French Riviera. If you are wondering where to go in March to find sunshine, this is the destination to prioritise.
Let’s be honest: it is not yet warm enough for full-on beach swimming, but it is genuine spring-like mildness. It feels like spring ahead of time: mimosas are in bloom, cafés are reopening their terraces and you can enjoy lunch outside.
The SOWELL advantage: This is the perfect time to choose one of our SOWELL residences on the French Riviera. You will enjoy the freedom of an apartment to live at your own pace (ideal for visiting the local market) while still benefiting from our hotel services. Just imagine: a coffee on your private balcony facing the sea, without the summer crowds and with full control over your budget.
The clever option: spring skiing in the high-altitude sun
The other way to enjoy the sun in March is at altitude! If you want to go skiing in March, you have picked the best month. The polar cold of January is over, making way for what we call “spring skiing”.
The advantages? Longer days, a sun that really warms you up (sunscreen highly recommended!) and spring snow that is often a real pleasure to ski on in the morning, before relaxing on a terrace in the afternoon.
The SOWELL advantage: Our properties, ideally located at the foot of the slopes in high-altitude, snow-sure resorts, are perfect for this. No buses to catch, no equipment to carry for miles. You step out of your residence, clip into your skis, enjoy the perfect morning snow and come back for a budget-controlled lunch thanks to our So’Inclusive formula. That is what SOWELL comfort in the mountains is all about.
March, the month of affordable weekends and stays
Apart from the Easter holidays (which can sometimes fall at the end of March), this month is considered low season. It is therefore the perfect time for a cheap stay in March. If you are on a small budget, now is the time to make the most of it.
Our ideas for a long weekend (3, 4 or 5 days)
Need a quick break? A weekend in March of 3 days or 4 days on the Côte d’Azur or the Côte Améthyste will give you a huge energy boost while protecting your savings. It is the perfect length for an efficient “sun” break.
Going away for a week in March: the luxury of the low season
If you are lucky enough to be able to go away for 1 week in March, make the most of it. You will enjoy peace and quiet, low prices and enough time to really explore a region without the summer crowds. It is the ideal length for a ski stay in March, or for a truly relaxing seaside break.
Keeping your budget under control with All Inclusive
Travelling “on the cheap” is good. Travelling with no unexpected expenses is even better. That is our greatest strength. Our So’Inclusive formula guarantees total control over your budget. Meals, drinks, snacks… everything is included. You can focus on what matters most: relaxing. That is the true definition of a great deal in March.
Getting away in March: for whom?
March’s mild weather and attractive prices make it ideal for specific types of travellers.
Where to go in March as a couple?
March’s mildness is perfect for romantic getaways. A romantic stay on the Côte d’Azur, strolling hand in hand along the promenade, or a cosy spa weekend in the mountains after a morning on the slopes… March offers an idyllic setting away from the crowds, and our SOWELL hotels provide all the comfort and privacy you need.
Where to go in March with the family (or with a baby)?
This is young parents’ best-kept secret. If you are looking for where to go in March with the family and are not tied to the school calendar, this is the perfect time. Our SOWELL residences are the ideal solution: you have a fully equipped apartment (kitchen, fridge, microwave), essential for managing bottles and baby meals at any time, while still enjoying the comfort of our services (such as heated indoor pools or housekeeping). It is the comfort of home, with a complete change of scenery and without the crowds.
FAQ: your questions about travelling in March
Where to go in March in France to find sunshine?
Your best bet is the Côte d’Azur (from Nice to Menton) for its spring-like mildness, or the Alps for dazzling high-altitude sunshine on a ski holiday.
Where to go in March to feel warm in France?
“Warm” is a bit of an overstatement in March. You can expect “mild” temperatures (15–18°C) on the Côte d’Azur. But if “feeling warm” for you means “being able to swim”, the answer lies in our heated indoor pools, available in most of our SOWELL properties.
What budget should you plan for a weekend in March?
It is the month for small budgets! Outside school holidays, you can find weekends at prices far lower than in February or April/May. By choosing our So’Inclusive formula, you know the total price of your stay in advance, with no hidden fees.
Discover all our inspiration on where to go on holiday in France, for holidays in February, holidays in April and holidays in May.
