Where is the hottest in december for a christmas holiday?

I am looking to go away for xmas, somewhere hot but preferably not to far away (im in the UK) alothough i would travel if it was worth it.

Any ideas?
Answers:
AUSTRALIA MATE! were just getting into spring..by the time you get here it'll be around 30c
Tenerife
Florida has been known to be as high as 99 degrees christmas day :)
If you don't want to go too far, the canaries will still be reasonably warm.
i am not sure its the hotest,but nha trang in Vietnam is a wonder full place for a holiday.you are guaranteed sun,its very cheap and safe when you are there
Dubai
Why don't you try a trip to the SUN.

There is no where hotter.
Try Morocco - Hotel la Mamounia.
The Sun! just ask Alf the Alien to drop u off!
Crikey gotta be Australia m8
red beret :- i like your way of thinking.. hope your female.cos i aint gay..
Fort William Scotland.
New Zealand (Bay of Islands) is really hot in December/January. I know it's the other side of the world but it's paradise. Just go.
ive been to gran canaria, barbados, thailand and hongkong for xmas in the past. the best for hot weather is defo barbados and worth the travel time. im goin back this year. gran canaria was nice, warm but needed a cardi at nite, shorter flight.
Anywhere in the southern hemisphere, where it is summer, when we have winter in Europe.
Take your pick.
Anyplace south of the Equator. From the UK, your easiest choices would be, for example, Senegal (beautiful beaches), Kenya (how about a photo safari?) Egypt, (a cruise down the Nile).
Then, if you want to travel a longer distance. You have South America. A trip to the beaches in Rio de Janeiro for example.Or a trip to New Mexico and Nevada (Las Vegas) in the USA, it's not south, but it is a desert climate, nice and warm.
Or the closest. Tenerife, the Canary Islands are always an easy choice!
Hope you find what you're looking for!

The best place to go to is without a doubt Cape Town South Africa. It is a bit far but I can assure you that it will be worth it. The only problem you will have is to tear yourself away from here. Temperature 30 c plus. E-mail me at deon.smit@24-7online.co.za and I will send you some nice pictures.

Regards.
I think is Australia
Go to Egypt - Cruise up the Nile River to Luxor. More fun than Morocco unless you are in Love with Sardines.
australia, its summer there at that time of year
