Tenerife
Egypt (Sharm)
Thailand (Pattaya/Phuket)
Mexico (Cancun)
Caribbean (probably Dominican Reb for value purposes)
Myself and a mate going.
Did have Orlando on the shortlist too but I want to witness a Shuttle Launch and my time off does not coincide with this so plan on going there another time.
Now with the exception of Sharm and Tenerife, every time I check the local weather on the other 3 it's raining. Probably because it's still (although coming to and end) the rainly season for those destinations but i'm doubtful if it will change sufficiently in the next couple of weeks.
Tenerife - needs no introduction. Weather should be ok. Been to Grand Canaria 8 times so have an idea what it will be like there.
As for the other 4, apart from some general research, don't know too much about them.
Criteria would be good, warm/hot weather. Beach resort. Few things to do (watersports etc etc), fairly lively nightlife. Water park would'nt go amiss too
Has anybody been to any of the destinations at this time of year (end Oct/Beg Nov), how did you get on. Do you recommend it? What resort/hotel did you stay?
Cheers
