Sunshine in October half term with DD15?

[Mollymoomoo3]

Me and DD15 planning few days away in sun in October half term. Tracking temperatures and Portugal and Cyprus look like best options currently. Portugal closest! Can anyone please recommend a good hotel in the Algarve with entertainment and close to a town for added interest?

Anyone else going anywhere lovely in Europe at half term that looks like it will be sunny??

Thanks!

Albufeira is the biggest town on the Algarve and should still have a decent amount on in October half term, so that would be a good place to base yourselves.

People can potentially give more hotel recommendations if you specify what you like- board, distance from sea etc.

Thank you! That’s very helpful. Looking for all inclusive and not worried about being close to beach as we prefer pool. Have been looking but there are so many and it would be great to have recommendations. Thanks

You might get 23 degrees but may also get 18 degrees. Last year the second last week in October the temperatures were more like 23/24 but for the last week of October it dropped and was 18 to 21. Not sure when your half term is, they seem to split across those 2 weeks depending where you live. I think warmth is more reliable in Cyprus or the Canaries at that time of year, but flights will be more expensive to both of these places.

Essaouira or agadir is nice in october. Madeira? Crete? rhodes? Valletta is lovely in october too

Portugal weather uncertain so find somewhere with a heated indoor pool 🏊‍♀️
