The best places for friends and groups
Beaches, islands, cities and wild places at their best in the month, warm and dry enough to be out all day.
How a place is chosen for friends and groups
- It is one of the best months, or a good one, to go.
- It is a beach, an island, a city, desert or mountains.
- Days average between 20°C and 34°C.
- It rains on no more than 8 days in the month.
- The UK Foreign Office does not advise against travel to the whole country.
A rule over the figures on each place's own page, not an opinion: the same month always gives the same answer.
