Top Destinations for Family February Holidays

Borneo

Not in any rush to see the Big Five? That’s okay. On this half-term adventure to Malaysia, Borneo and Indonesia we’re taking you and the little ones inside the Jungle Book instead. From colour and culture in the urban jungle of Kuala Lumpur to twilight elephant treks and special spa treatments in blissful Bali, the highlight of this action-packed family holiday is this: boarding a private boat to Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre to get up close to some of the region’s last remaining wild orangutans.

Colombia

Nestled in the middle of the awe-inspiring Andes and bordered by the warm Caribbean Sea, Colombia is the perfect family-friendly destination. Whether it’s horseriding through the fragrant coffee fields in Cafetero, snorkelling in the Rosario Islands, or chocolate making in Cartagena, this is a boisterous and crowd-pleasing family holiday for February half-term. A visit to Bogota, Colombia’s capital, wouldn’t be complete without a stay at The Four Seasons Casa Medina; dripping in colonial charm, inviting open fires, and hand-carved doors, it’ll be hard to walk away. As night falls, a professional guide will take you on a ghost tour through La Candelaria, spilling you spooky stories about Bogota’s most famous cathedrals and monuments. Fret not, it’s suitable for all the children.

Where to go on holiday in January: Antigua

Antigua

The idyllic beaches of the Caribbean are ideal for a February half-term holiday with young children, as the days can be as relaxed or as action-packed as you desire. And what better island to wind up on than the white powder beaches of Antigua? Besides the private plunge pools, countless Kids Club activities and multi-bedroomed villas dotted around its luxurious family-friendly resorts, there are mountains of exciting activities for you and the kids to embark on. Snorkel above colourful coral reefs, feast on picnics full of your favourite snacks on the uninhabited Green Island, and map out Antigua’s night skies from Jumby Bay. In the evenings, settle down with all the family for private-beach dinners and BBQs under the stars, with gourmet food whipped up by your own catering staff.

Take us there

Sri Lanka

Go where the wild things are with this adventurous family holiday – deep into the heart of Yala National Park, Sri Lanka’s most iconic nature reserve. Surrounded by wildlife in every direction, go in search of the elusive leopard, study breathtaking species of flora and fauna, and attend workshops to learn about the behaviour of native wild elephants – all with the help of naturalist guides. In the evenings, return to the jungle-fringed beaches of Yala with nights at the charming family-friendly Wild Coast Tented Lodge. Here you can enjoy beach croquet and family picnics before hunkering down in your contemporary ‘cocoon’ with an adjoining mini ‘urchin’, so you can keep the kids entertained but have space when needed.

Take us there

Hawaii

February brings Hawaii's most compelling season for family exploration. Marine biologists lead children to protected coves where humpback whales breach with their calves, while local naturalists share ancient Polynesian techniques for reading ocean currents and weather patterns. On the Big Island, volcanologists guide families across recent lava flows, explaining how the archipelago continues its millennia-long formation. Between surf lessons taught by native Hawaiian instructors and twilight snorkel sessions with gentle manta rays, families discover an island culture that extends far beyond its beaches.

Take us there

Iceland

February in Iceland opens a world where science and adventure merge for families. Expert geologists guide children across frozen lava fields, explaining how the island continues to shape itself through volcanic forces. Local guides, whose families have lived here for generations, teach time-honored techniques for tracking Arctic foxes through snow-covered valleys. As darkness falls, astronomers help young stargazers identify constellations before the Northern Lights paint the sky in impossible colours.
