Enjoy breath-taking views and swoon-worthy sunsets with exclusive deals on getaways to Greece, Croatia, Cyprus, Italy, and the Canary Islands with Jet2holidays

Whether you’re an off-the-beaten-track trekker, a family of thrill seekers, or simply one who sips cocktails by the coast – every holidaymaker will agree, there’s something magical about a picturesque sunset.

From the picturesque city of Paphos to the sun-drenched island of Sicily, Jet2holidays has an unbeatable choice of destinations across Europe to savour the most sensational, sun-downer scenes. What’s more, holidaymakers can also enjoy all the benefits of an ATOL protected package holiday, including award-winning flights with Jet2.com, friendly flight times, an industry leading 22kg baggage allowance and transfers to and from the airport.

So, whether you’re looking for an Instagram-worthy mountain summit, or want to watch the sun go down over sparkling seas, secure your holiday now for just £60pp booking deposit – and be sure to pack your camera!

Perhaps best known for its distinctive Old Town, this beautiful city also boasts an unbeatable sunset spot from the top of Mount Srd. Visitors can take a cable car to the summit to snap a photo and admire the view over dinner and drinks.
