Somewhere Warm/Hot In October

[kisschase]

This is my first post in Shorthaul, so apologies if this has been done to death, but I wondered if anyone could recommend a good place to go that will still be warm at the beginning of October?
It has to be shorthaul & sunbathing weather, but other than that I am open to all suggestions.
TIA

Canaries, Madeira, Malta and Cyprus should still be hot.

I've holiday in the last week of Sept in Corsica also and it was still perfect in the day and cooled down in the evenings (needed a cardigan thats all). But it was starting to have that 'end of season' feel to it, so I'd go to places that are reliably warm for a bit long, like the ones i suggested.

Turkey is lovely in October.

We're still swimming mid-November in Greece.

I think we're going to Abu dhabi. Is that too far? Lovely and hot then

Greece is wonderful at that time. The sea is warm and the crowds have left.

We were in turkey in late September last year and it was freezing. I was wearing trousers and two cardigans in the day.guests who had had the intelligence to bring jackets were wearing them

Certainly not sunbathing weather. Too cold to go in the sea or the pool. I had to hire a wetsuit to go windsurfing

Thank you all for coming back
I was thinking Greece/Cyprus might be the best way to go - I've seen a lovely hotel in Lindos, Rhodes - so thank you all x

Greece has had an 'unseasonal' spring (cloudy, wet, and mild, as opposed to warm). I'm wondering if we're going to get a more autumnal autumn this year too. Cyprus might be a safer bet.

Not that Cyprus isn't Greece, of course

Rhodes is meant to get the most sun in Greece so a good option. Lindos is lovely.

MightyAphrodite, we "enjoyed" some of that unseasonal Spring in April. It was ***ing freezing and wet for a few days!

This has been the most spring-like spring we've had in the 20something years I've been here. We're in the south and it's usually baking by early May. So far this year, we're still sleeping with blankets (fairly light, but still blankets!)

I have some friends that came home early from Turkey in (mid-late) Oct, it was too cold! With Greece be careful not to get caught by any sort of end-of-season time when everything shuts down.

To avoid this i would really head further south, or further east. Egypt, Israel, Jordon, Middle East will all be nice if you're prepared to travel a bit further.

I would personally go a little further south than Greece/Turkey, just to be sure.

The Canaries have fantastic weather all year round, and it's still proper sunbathing weather at the beginning of October.4 hour flight too, so not far. I'm afraid I'm a total Canary Island snob, though, so I'd only go to Lanzarote, and probably only to the resorts of Playa Blanca and maybe Puerto del Carmen.

Depending on how many people you're going with you can pick up some good deals on villas with private pools (anything from £400 for a 2 bed place for a week).

Good luck looking!

I have been to both Greece and Turkey in October and it hs been lovely, especially the beginning of october. I used to live in Turkey and I was swimming in the sea and the pools all through october, there would still be people swimming in the sea in November, a bit too chilly for me then but it was still nice. We are going back to Turkey this October half term.

Thank you all again - my OH saw a nice hotel in Hurghada (I think that's Egypyt) which looked lovey and by all accounts it should be still in 30s in October - so we are broadening our search but will def check out the canaries.

Israel, specifically Eilat

Egypt obviously
