Pack your appetite and your fave pair of sunnies - the Algarve's calling with these September holiday deals, and there's a sun lounger with your name on it ☀️
Weather in the Balearics in September
The Balearic islands are THE holiday hotspot when it comes to cheap September holidays for a late summer glow-up.

All in favour of swapping eight hour shifts for eight hours of sun, say "aye" 🙋☀️
Where else is good for holidays in September?
If you're wondering where's hot in September in Europe, the Canaries, Cyprus, and mainland Spain are three of the strongest picks beyond the destinations above. The Canaries barely dip below 26°C at any point in September and get almost no rain. Cyprus is one of the last places in Europe to cool down, regularly hitting 30°C+ right through to the end of the month. And Spain's Costa del Sol and Costa Blanca both hold their summer heat well into late September, with the bonus of La Mercè festival in Barcelona if you time it right.
Beyond Europe, September opens up some brilliant long-haul options too. Egypt holidays are sizzling at 33°C+ with bone-dry weather and some of the best-value all-inclusive resorts anywhere. Dubai is starting to cool down from its brutal summer peak, sitting around 35°C, which is still hot but manageable if you're poolside with air-con on tap. And the Caribbean is warm and lush in September with fewer crowds than the winter high season, though it's worth knowing it falls within hurricane season, so travel insurance is a must.
