If you’re already dreaming about an October getaway and trying to work out where still feels summery, you’re not alone — this is exactly when everyone starts asking.
For travellers who love warm days and a bit of exploring, Chania is one I often suggest. It’s relaxed, scenic and ideal for couples or friends who don’t want their holiday to be all poolside. If you’re after something more straightforwardly hot, Sharm El Sheikh is usually the safer bet — especially if you’re restricted to half term. And for families who want sunshine with plenty of choice, Paphos tends to tick a lot of boxes.
The best destination really does depend on your dates, your travel style and the kind of weather you’re hoping for. I don’t give every client the same recommendation — that’s the whole point of having someone guide you.
Tell me when you’re travelling and what you want your days to look like, and I’ll help you find the October spot that genuinely fits.
