As the icy nights draw in, summer starts to feel like a distant memory. And if like us, you live for long sunny beach days and cruising down calm turquoise waters, then you’ve certainly come to the right place.

Everyone deserves a bit of sun when it gets cold over the winter months, so before you go packing your summer wardrobe away until next year, let us help you choose your next exotic, winter sun adventure. Here’s a list of places we think are just perfect for exploring with your Williams jet tender.

1. Cuba

Marbled with history, this magnificent country is a seriously magical escape. You’ll fall in love with the white sandy beaches that pepper the north coast and the land of fruitful forests, abandoned coffee plantations and rugged mountains that lie far beyond the beaches.

 2. Gran Canaria

Gran Canaria is an island made for exploration. With dramatic leafy green landscapes, a mountainous interior and a more desert-like south, there is always something new to discover. Plus, you’ll be spoilt by the island’s white sandy beaches and beautiful resorts for those moment when you need to sit back and relax.

3. Barbados

January is dry season in Barbados where you won’t be affected by stormy weather or nasty hurricanes – the perfect time to visit this beautiful paradise. Enjoy stunning vistas, luxury resorts and the most delicious local cuisine, all the while basking in the island’s 30-degree heat.

4. Dubai

Dubai offers so much more than a holiday – marvellous hotels, the white sands of Jumeirah Beach, trendy bars, glitzy cars and incredible eateries that dot the cityscape. And after exploring the shores by tender or yacht, you can get lost for hours in the vast shopping temples when the midday heat reaches its highs.

5. Phuket

You’ve probably heard of the beautiful Phuket, Thailand’s largest island and a holiday icon for people all over the globe. But seeing is believing. Visit over the next few months for the best climate the island can offer, and take in some of the most idyllic vistas you’ll ever experience from Phuket’s sandy shores.

6. St. Lucia

Whichever part of St. Lucia you choose to visit, we can guarantee that you’re in for a treat. With temperatures staying in their late 20s all throughout the early months of the year, this striking Caribbean island is a must-see. Oh, and don’t forget to swing by Pigeon Island in the north when you’re there!

7. Antigua

From December to April, the island of Antigua basks in glorious 30-degree temperatures. But if that’s not enough of a reason to escape the European winter, the island also boasts 365 white sand beaches which back onto beautiful sweeping landscapes – countless havens for a tender adventure.
