It's the start of a long dark winter in Scotland - and hopping on a flight to one of these destinations will provide you with some much-needed sun and warmth in the coming weeks.
November is a time when even popular holiday destinations like the south of France or the Costa del Sol can still be a little chilly.
So, if you're looking for some warmth then you'll have to look a little further afield.
Many of the hotter tourist choices require inconvenient, tiring and time consuming flight connections if you're starting your journey in Scotland.
But there are a fair few choices that offer the convenience of a direct flight with the reward of high temperatures at the end of it.
Here are 11 of them.
