With many tourists already having started their summer vacations on the blue European beaches that stretch throughout the pristine coastline of the continent, it is not yet too late for others, to book their trips for the upcoming summer months.<\/p>\n

While there\u2019s a general belief that the best months to travel in Europe are July and August, in fact, summer starts early in the continent, and in many countries, the beaches are open and sunny from the beginning of May to the end of September.<\/p>\n

Many beaches are open even in April and October, for those who don\u2019t mind the chilly waters,\u00a0SchengenVisaInfo.com\u00a0reports.<\/p>\n

Planning a trip to Europe at this point might be a bit more problematic for travellers who need a Schengen visa, that enables one to enter over 30 European countries, including here the 27 Schengen Area countries, which are the only ones eligible to issue such a visa.<\/p>\n

Yet, even\u00a0those needing a Schengen visa, still have time to obtain one. A factor that makes many people to spend their vacations in one particular place, is having a bigger chance of getting a visa to visit that Schengen country.<\/p>\n

This, however, does not mean that travellers should attempt to obtain a Schengen visa from one country, and instead plan to travel to another, as this is called \u201cvisa shopping\u201d and it is greatly condemned by the Schengen countries.<\/p>\n

Recent\u00a0data on Schengen visas issued in 2022, show that the ten countries with the lowest rejection rate in the same year are as follows, for highest to lowest:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Italy \u2013 12.7 per cent<\/li>\n
  2. Greece \u2013 12.5 per cent<\/li>\n
  3. Switzerland \u2013 12 per cent<\/li>\n
  4. Poland \u2013 11.6 per cent<\/li>\n
  5. Luxembourg \u2013 10.5 per cent<\/li>\n
  6. Finland \u2013 9.7 per cent<\/li>\n
  7. Slovakia \u2013 9.7 per cent<\/li>\n
  8. Latvia \u2013 9.5 per cent<\/li>\n
  9. Lithuania \u2013 7.8 per cent<\/li>\n
  10. Iceland \u2013 only 1.9 per cent<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
