🌞Winter Sun Escapes: Where to Go When the UK Turns into a Giant Fridge
Ladies, I’ve got you covered! As the UK transforms into a land of frosty mornings and questionable knitwear, it’s time to ditch the layers and chase the sun. Whether you're dreaming of beachside cocktails, tropical tans, or just a break from your central heating bill, these destinations are serving sunshine and sass from November to March.
So grab your sunnies, prep your playlist, and let’s find your next warm-weather escape (because your bikini deserves better than a cold drawer).
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Best Time to Visit: December to March
Why Go: It’s summer in Brazil, which means beach days, samba nights, and Carnival chaos (the fabulous kind).
Highlights: Copacabana, Ipanema, Christ the Redeemer, and boat trips that make you feel like a Bond girl (minus the drama).
🏙️ Dubai, UAE
Best Time to Visit: November to March
Why Go: Warm weather, luxury everything, and buildings that look like they were designed by stylish aliens.
Highlights: Jumeirah Beach, desert safaris, yacht cruises, and malls so big you’ll need snacks just to get through them.
🏝️ Phuket, Thailand
Best Time to Visit: November to February
Why Go: Dry season = beach perfection. Also, Thai food. Enough said.
Highlights: Phi Phi Islands, snorkeling, massages that make you question reality, and sunsets that deserve their own Instagram account.
🌋 Canary Islands, Spain
Best Time to Visit: December to February
Why Go: Europe’s winter sun MVP. It’s like Spain, but with African weather and fewer tourists asking where the nearest Pret is.
Highlights: Tenerife’s beaches, volcano hikes, catamaran tours, and charming villages that look like postcards.
🐧 Cape Town, South Africa
Best Time to Visit: December to March
Why Go: It’s summer in the Southern Hemisphere, so while your neighbour is defrosting their car, you’re sipping wine in the sun.
Highlights: Table Mountain, Camps Bay, penguins at Boulders Beach (yes, actual penguins), and wine tasting that turns into wine buying.
