I'll have a look I hate beach holidays, but just trying to break up the long winter. Also been promising the kids for the last five years. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jok 3,047 Posted September 7, 2023 Report Share Posted September 7, 2023 Fuertaventura is our winter choice. The town centre, the harbour, the restraints and nightlife are all good as is the walk along a good 2 k’s of Sandy beach. Weather is good so all in all a good location.

You can't beat getting some sun on your back during a long shitty winter! I reckon you'll be fine in the Canarys. Never been to Tenerife but have been to the others. Don't forget Lanzarote is very windy!! Have you looked at Egypt mate? We went in January a few years back. Was minus- 2° at Doncaster Airport when we left at 27° when we landed 5 hours later! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
