The nights are creeping in, with summer in the UK drawing to a close as it had been and the weather isn’t as warm. But venture out of Europe and you’ll discover a huge variety of areas that enjoy year-round warm weather, which makes long-haul holidays the way to escape the fall glow of the UK.
Here we sat down with online travel agents Destination2.co.uk who advised us that four far flung destinations enjoy warm to warm weather throughout the year — so it is possible to create your summer last that little bit longer.
Borneo, Malaysia
Across the ocean from the cities of the Malaysian peninsula lies the island of Borneo. The 2nd largest island Borneo, on the planet is an enclave that is divided into three countries — Eastern, Brunei and Indonesia Malaysia. Malaysia provides a quieter alternative for its Western counterpart, and makes up just over a quarter of the island.
Borneo is covered therefore travelling here is a excellent opportunity to acquaint yourself with a huge collection of flora and wildlife. Celebrate orangutans that are magnificent soak up the sun on the shores or see the sun set across the South China Sea.
The rainy season here begins in November, so autumn is a wonderful time to see this spectacular island.
Seychelles, Indian Ocean
The Seychelles archipelago will tick all the boxes if you’re looking for the ultimate island escape. Located in the western Indian Ocean and made up of 115 islands, you’ll find some of the most gorgeous beaches on the planet here.
However, it doesn’t just stop in the coastline, encounter a number of this region’s unique culture in the capital, Victoria. Have a leisurely stroll around the National Botanical Gardens, or explore the Tempio Hindu. Back to the beach, and you’ll be able to sink your feet into snorkel in some of the clearest waters in the ocean, or that famous soft white sand. Seychelles is famous for its brightly colored coralreefs, therefore exploring the world beneath the waves is crucial here.
The best times to visit with with the Seychelles is May, April, October and November — so if you’re looking for a late fall / early winter break, this selection of tropical islands could be the ideal spot for your escape.
Dubai, UAE
Located deep within the Northern Desert Belt, summer in Dubai is among the hottest on earth. However, in October the city cools to a average temperature of 29°C — perfect beach weather!
Consider again if you thought Dubai was skyscrapers and all restaurants. This metropolis includes miles and miles of post-card perfect white beaches, many of which are owned by the city’s extravagant hotels. Away from the Mountains, Dubai has a wealth of unique and memorable experience to offer you. Take in views in the 148th flooring of the Burj Khalifa that is mighty, or indulge in a spot of retail therapy in the shopping mall in the world.
Culture-vultures will be right at home in Old Dubai, where you find out all about the city’s fascinating ancient history and can explore souks. Take an abra around Dubai Creek and immerse yourself in a culture dating back thousands of years, before heading back to your hotel and watching the sun set over the Palm Jumeirah.
Mauritius, Indian Ocean
The island of Mauritius is situated in the southern Indian Ocean, about 700 miles away from the shore of Madagascar. Owing to its close proximity to the equator, the island loves temperatures during the entire year to visit slipping between May and December.
This small speck of green has a great deal. Horseback ride across a coastline, explore or simply relax on some of the best beaches in the world. However you decide to invest your Mauritius holiday, one thing’s for certain.
