5 BEST places to FIND winter SUN!!

BERMUDA
The mid-Atlantic archipelago of Bermuda, mythical setting for Shakespeare's Tempest, is a land of pink beaches, pink houses and brightly coloured shorts. It is Caribbean in nature, though it's much closer to the UK - so shorter flight times - and has a distinctive character all of its own.

CYPRUS
The eastern Mediterranean Sea around Cyprus may be chilly in winter, but the island gets plenty of sunshine all year, so there's a good chance you'll get T-shirt weather even in the coldest months. From March, the island's flowers start to bloom, and there's barely another visitor in sight. Plus it's only a short hop from the UK. Don't let the island's recent financial problems put you off - it's the economic situation will only mean tourists get an even warmer welcome than usual, but you may want to arrive with your Euros ready!
