Best October half term holiday destinations

If you’re wanting to make the most of some hot temperatures and beaming sunshine before winter is in full swing, then October half term is still a great time to jet away as there’s tons of destinations boasting a balmy climate.

Idyllic island vibes and a short flight? Holidays in the Balearics, particularly Majorca, are a family favourite for these two highlights. Temperatures in October still reach the mid twenties, which is perfect for topping up your tan whilst not being too hot for the little ones.

Mainland Spain is also a good spot, with average temperatures in the low twenties and just a short flight, especially Benidorm which is reachable in only around 2 and a half hours, it ticks plenty of boxes for a family trip.

If you’re looking for even hotter destinations, sunny Cyprus is a pretty safe bet for your October half term holiday. With highs of 27 degrees, it’ll still feel like the middle of summer! Cyprus has so much going on for families too with great waterparks and huge beaches.

Similarly, the Canaries boast warm temperatures all year round, so with just a 4 and a half hour flight you could be landing in Tenerife or Lanzarote and enjoying temperatures in the late twenties, plus all of the adventure, beaches and parks they offer.

Tips for bagging a cheap October half term holiday deal

There’s plenty of ways to snap up a cheap October half term holiday without compromising on the things you want. Here’s a few of our top tips for bagging the best October half term deal around:

Be flexible – you’ll be surprised how much difference flying from a different airport could make – if you’re able to travel to another one. It’s worth a look!

The dates you choose to fly on can also have a big impact on the cost of your booking too. Taking into account the two weekends over the October half term, you have around 10 days to play with – so try browsing flights on a variety of days. Often, you’ll find odd durations come in cheaper too, maybe head for 11 nights rather than 10!

Flexibility with your chosen destination is key too. If you’re not set on going to a particular place and you’re happy to head wherever the sunshine – and lower prices are, then you’ll more than likely save plenty of pounds!

Keep your eyes peeled for Free Kids Places. Many of our holidays in October half term offer a free child place with two full paying adults, which is a great way to make huge savings.
