Even if the UK is getting colder, there’s always an opportunity to grab a last-minute winter sun holiday abroad and enjoy some warm weather without breaking the bank.
Didn’t get a chance to go away this summer? Wondering where to go in winter for sun before the new year arrives? If you are feeling blue and keen to get some sea, sand, and relaxation, then there are plenty of winter sun choices you can choose from. Here are some of our last minute winter sun holiday recommendations.
Where To Go in Winter For Sun in Europe
There are some locations that seem to have the sun year-round, making them perfect destinations during the winter months if you are on the hunt for warmer weather. Here are some of our top recommendations of the best places to go for winter sun…
Lanzarote
It might not be the most popular Canary Island, but Lanzarote boasts beautiful weather all year round, particularly in November. This makes it perfect for winter sun weather. The island can get pretty busy during winter as tourists flock to grab some last-minute sun and top up their tan.
With a climate classed as a subtropical desert, temperatures can read highs of 23 °C in the winter months, meaning it’s perfect beach weather. Not to mention with the cooler evenings than in the summer months, you really do get the best of both worlds.
Cyprus
With one of the warmest winters in the Mediterranean, Cyprus is the perfect European break to escape to for some winter sun. Often crowded during the summer months, the winter season tends to quieten down a little, making it much more relaxing and peaceful.
Not to mention, you can enjoy cooler temperatures when compared with the blistering summer heat. Even in the off-peak season, there’s still plenty to do with excursions at a cheaper off-peak rate, allowing you to experience more of the island for less! It’s no surprise that Cyprus is one of the most popular last minute winter sun holiday destinations.
Madeira
One of Europe’s popular winter sun choices, Madeira is an archipelago made up of 4 islands that bask in the sun year-round, making it the perfect winter sun weather destination. Crowds are less in the winter too meaning a quieter, more relaxed time away and with plenty of adrenaline-fuelled activities to keep you busy, Madeira offers something a little different.
