For truly hot and sunny conditions you're inevitably going to have travel that bit further.</p> <p>However, if it's just a hint of winter sunshine to warm your face, then you may be able to stay closer to home. </p> <figure> <div class="pinit"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.weather2travel.com/december/&media=https://www.weather2travel.com/images_blog/luxor-sunset-egypt.jpg&description=Luxor+sunset,+Egypt+|+Weather2Travel.com#" title="Pin It"><i class="fa fa-pinterest-p"></i></a></div> <img src='/images_blog/luxor-sunset-egypt.jpg' border='0' title="Luxor sunset, Egypt" alt="Luxor sunset, Egypt" /> <figcaption>Luxor sunset, Egypt © <a href='https://www.flickr.com/photos/lonelyplanetexchange/2424017672/' target='new window o104008' rel='nofollow'>Michael Tyler</a> - Flickr <a href='https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/' target='new window l104008' rel='nofollow'>CC BY-SA 2.0</a></figcaption> </figure> <p>For delightfully sunny weather in December, the nearest destination is <strong>Egypt</strong>. Consider heading inland to the Nile region where <strong>Luxor</strong> enjoys temperatures up to 25°C and nine hours of sunshine per day, although you will most likely want a hotel with a heated pool.</p> <p>If you have your heart set on the Red Sea, however, make for <strong>Marsa Alam</strong> on the west coast, which is a few degrees warmer than Sharm el Sheikh with temperatures up to 25°C, just over eight hours of sunshine per day, and sea temperatures reaching 24°C. </p> <p>The much loved resort of <strong><a href='/red-sea-egypt/december/'>Sharm el Sheikh</a></strong> is still an option for some, but again it depends what you want. As the sea temperature dips to around 23°C, it's not the best time to be swimming, although you may prefer the cooler conditions (when compared to summer) and make do with a heated pool. </p> <p>Turning up the heat, we head southwest to <strong><a href='/gambia/december/'>Gambia</a></strong> where you'll find fantastic beach weather in December. With up to eight hours of sunshine each day, temperatures reaching 31°C, and high heat and humidity, Gambia ticks all the boxes.</p> <p>The sea is a pleasant 25°C, and although this isn't as balmy as you'd find further afield in December (you can thank the cold Atlantic current), it's still warm enough for many to have a good splash about, and there are plenty of water sports on offer here. </p> <figure> <div class="pinit"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.weather2travel.com/december/&media=https://www.weather2travel.com/images_blog/riad-africa-marrakech.jpg&description=Riad+Africa+Marrakech+|+Weather2Travel.com#" title="Pin It"><i class="fa fa-pinterest-p"></i></a></div> <img src='/images_blog/riad-africa-marrakech.jpg' border='0' title="Riad Africa Marrakech" alt="Riad Africa Marrakech" /> <figcaption>Riad Africa Marrakech © <a href='https://www.flickr.com/photos/africanick/6195332153/' target='new window o105388' rel='nofollow'>Nick Anstead</a> - <a href='https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/2.0/' target='new window l105388' rel='nofollow'>Flickr CC BY-ND 2.0</a></figcaption> </figure> <p>Meanwhile, for an easy city break in December, you can't beat <strong>Marrakech</strong>. Temperatures peak at around 19°C, so it's not weather for lying out in.</p> <p>However, it's glorious for wandering around the souks, visiting the many historic sites, and even heading into the Atlas Mountains for a hike - just remember to take your layers as it gets chilly in the evening when temperatures sink to around 6°C. </p> <p>You may be considering the <strong><a href='/canary-islands/december/'>Canary Islands</a></strong>, which are renowned for their welcoming weather all year. For daily highs around 20°C and at least six hours of sunshine per day, the likes of <strong><a href='/tenerife/december/'>Tenerife</a></strong> and <strong><a href='/gran-canaria/december/'>Gran Canaria</a></strong> are delightful, and December is a good time to experience their quieter sides.</p> <p>It's definitely not a destination for water babes though, as the weather sees the sea drop to around 20°C, which is positively bracing. </p> <p><a href='#top'>Back to top</a></p> <a id='medium-haul' name='medium-haul'></a> <h2>Long haul - up to 10 hours: Barbados, St Lucia & Miami</h2> <p>There's great news for those willing to fly a little further is that many destinations in this bracket have idyllic weather in December. We're talking picture-perfect paradise conditions, which can only mean one thing: the <strong><a href='/caribbean/december/'>Caribbean</a></strong>.</p> <p>From the end of November the region is not only out of its hurricane season, but also entering its driest time, which typically means it's cooler than the summer months (read: more comfortable heat), but crucially, much drier and less humid. </p> <figure> <div class="pinit"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.weather2travel.com/december/&media=https://www.weather2travel.com/images_blog/blue-skies-over-barbados.jpg&description=Blue+skies+over+Barbados+|+Weather2Travel.com#" title="Pin It"><i class="fa fa-pinterest-p"></i></a></div> <img src='/images_blog/blue-skies-over-barbados.jpg' border='0' title="Blue skies over Barbados" alt="Blue skies over Barbados" /> <figcaption>Blue skies over Barbados © <a href='https://www.flickr.com/photos/spettacolopuro/5395466237/' target='new window o100889' rel='nofollow'>Andrea</a> - Flickr <a href='https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/2.0/' target='new window l100889' rel='nofollow'>CC BY-NC-ND 2.0</a></figcaption> </figure> <p>The islands of <strong><a href='/barbados/december/'>Barbados</a></strong> and <strong><a href='/st-lucia/december/'>St Lucia</a></strong> are big hits, with lovely weather. Barbados is a few degrees cooler than Gambia with temperatures reaching 29°C, however, the sea temperature is very inviting at 27°C.</p> <p>You'll find up to nine hours of sunshine per day, and warm evenings, and although there's a high level of heat and humidity, it's still lower than during the summer months.</p> <p>Given it's location in the southern Caribbean, Barbados also benefits from being a little sunnier than some of its northern neighbours such as <strong><a href='/antigua/december/'>Antigua</a></strong> and the <strong><a href='/british-virgin-islands/december/'>British Virgin Islands</a></strong>.</p> <p>The weather in St Lucia is very similar to Barbados, with just a little less sunshine (up to eight hours) and only moderate heat and humidity. </p> <p>Further north into the <strong>USA</strong>, <strong><a href='/florida/miami/december/'>Miami</a></strong> is surprisingly superb with weather that rivals that of Sydney.</p> <p>Temperatures in the sunshine state's main city can surpass 24°C, with no heat and humidity (unlike further south in the Caribbean), and sea temperatures which reach an agreeable 25°C - that's two degrees warmer than Sydney whose waters are just starting to warm up.</p> <p>Generally speaking, you can find excellent holiday weather in December within 10 hours of the UK if you stick to those northern hemisphere countries with dry seasons at this time.</p> <p>You'll be able to relax in hot and sunny conditions without travelling quite as far as you might have thought necessary for truly enjoyable conditions.</p> <p><a href='#top'>Back to top</a></p> <a id='long-haul' name='long-haul'></a> <h2>Long haul - 10 hours or more: Goa, Cape Town, Malindi & Sydney</h2> <p>If a long haul flight is no obstacle, then your options for finding great weather open up even more.

Instead, head inland to the winelands of beautiful Stellenbosch, less than one hour from the city, and with an added extra 30 minutes of sunshine each day.</p> <p>For comparison, the weather in Cape Town equates to something like Majorca or the Algarve in June, without the inviting sea temperatures.</p> <figure> <div class="pinit"><a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="https://pinterest.com/pin/create/button/?url=https://www.weather2travel.com/december/&media=https://www.weather2travel.com/images_blog/sandies-coconut-village-malindi.jpg&description=Sandies+Coconut+Village+Malindi,+Kenya+|+Weather2Travel.com#" title="Pin It"><i class="fa fa-pinterest-p"></i></a></div> <img src='/images_blog/sandies-coconut-village-malindi.jpg' border='0' title="Sandies Coconut Village Malindi, Kenya" alt="Sandies Coconut Village Malindi, Kenya" /> <figcaption>Sandies Coconut Village Malindi, Kenya - courtesy of Planhotel SA</figcaption> </figure> <p>Looking northeast to the Kenyan coast, you'll find the white sandy shores and crystal clear waters of <strong>Malindi</strong>.
