Your summer break is planned and fast approaching, but have you thought about where you’ll be playing golf this winter? Instead of braving the cold, gloomy British fairways between November and March, hone your golf skills during a Winter Sun golf holiday where you can escape the mundane and relish a dash of warmth and sunshine to keep you going.
August and September are good times to book a well-priced flight, so look out for the upcoming long-haul sales and specials. And did you know that many European flights are considerably cheaper out of season, with October being the best time to travel. In addition, availability at European venues improves considerably, with the upside of a more peaceful break and no overcrowding on the golf course.
To help you on your way we've highlighted a few of our most popular Winter Sun destinations below.
If you like exotic all-inclusive holidays consider the Caribbean, which is a 9-hour flight away. With an average high of 26°c and eight hours of daily sun between November and March, this is the ultimate tropical Winter Sun destination.
A taste of paradise, Caribbean Islands such as Barbados are dream destinations for those in need of some serious relaxation in the sun. Brimming with white sandy beaches, swaying palm trees, turquoise seas, and rum cocktails, our Caribbean holidays are simply perfect for both golfers and non-golfers alike who want to work on their tan.
Winter Sun destinations aren’t as inaccessible as they may seem. Cyprus, with its ideal year-round golfing climate and excellent golf courses, has fabulous offers for this coming winter.
It might not be tropical, but Portugal is also perfect for a spot of winter golf. With an average of 17°c you won’t be lounging on the beach, but at least you’d be swinging in the sunshine.
