I want sunshine
The simplest brief there is. What matters is the season more than the country, so we point you where the weather is reliable when you can travel.
Where that works
Turkey
Antalya
If the brief is sunshine and a good rate, this coast is difficult to beat, particularly in May and October.
Portugal
Algarve
Reliable sun from spring to autumn, short transfers from Faro airport and beaches for every mood, from busy to almost empty.
Greece
Crete
You get a proper beach holiday and a road trip in the same week, with prices that still feel reasonable in shoulder season.
Spain
Mallorca
Everything is within an hour's drive, which makes it unusually efficient for a one week trip with mixed interests.
