Where should I do a season?

You answer six quick questions about what you want from a season: whether you're after snow, sun or festivals, how intense you want the work to be, whether you're prioritising earnings or lifestyle, and a couple more. PeakWave scores each destination against your answers and returns the three strongest matches, with a percentage match score, a short reason why, and links to live conditions, a destination guide and current job listings.

Around 25 seasonal destinations across three season types: alpine ski resorts (France, Switzerland, Austria, Canada, Japan), summer hotspots (Greek islands, Ibiza, Croatia, Portugal, the Caribbean, Antibes) and UK festivals. Each destination links through to a full PeakWave guide and any live job listings in that location.

Yes. The quiz is free and no sign-up is needed to take it or see your results. PeakWave itself is free for both seasonal workers and employers — no fees, no commissions, no hidden charges.

Every destination has a profile of attributes: party scene, nature access, cost of living, earning potential, work intensity, cultural depth, career development and UK accessibility. Your answers tell us which of those matter most to you. We score the distance between your ideal and each destination's profile, weight it by how strongly you answered, and rank the top three. The scoring is deterministic — same answers give the same result.

Yes. Nothing is saved to your account unless you sign up and save a result, so you can retake the quiz as many times as you like and compare outcomes. Many people take it once for winter and again for summer.
