Zika Free Travel in February - Need Ideas!
 
My husband and I are looking to travel somewhere in February for 8-9 days. We live in NYC and open to just about anywhere in the world, with preference for warm weather / beaches and no Zika risk. Any ideas?

How about Aruba?

In February it will be summer in Australia.

As far as I know Zika is not a major threat in the islands of the South Pacific so maybe Bora Bora, Morera or Fiji would interest you.

My daughter just went through this search, your choices are narrow... if you want warm weather I believe Tahiti, Cook Islands, New Zealand , Australia, and Hawaii are still zika free but best you check the CDC web site.

I don't think Zika is any big issue anymore. Even in the Caribbean and South America, they don't issue any particular warning about it.
Anyways, MAybe Nort Africa and South east asia can be a good option

>>I don't think Zika is any big issue anymore.<<

Huh? AFAIK The State Dept and CDC have not rescinded their travel advisories.

@trvllover77 - READ THIS:

And then STOP giving dangerously misleading information.
