Whether you’re escaping the family or bringing them with you, Christmas beach vacations are a fantastic way to experience the festive season in a new light. Create new vacation memories by building sandcastles instead of snowmen, and surfing waves instead of ice.

Alternatively, Christmas beach vacations are great for those who don’t celebrate but want a break from the cold season to enjoy some of the world's most luxurious destinations for winter sun.

No matter why you’re after a hot vacation at Christmas, here are some beach vacation destinations that are great to visit in December and over the Christmas period. Alternatively, speak to one of our travel specialists for more suggestions and to start planning your trip.
