I have all of December off from work, where should I go?

I've not yet done any research whatsoever on this, and figured it would be fun to start off by asking you lot.

Is December even a good time to visit this part of the world, weatherwise?

I'll be traveling alone and I'm not looking for an action packed vacation. Beautiful scenery, tasty drinks and good food will do the trick. Beach vacations aren't normally my thing, but I think that's just what I'm in need of now.

Preferably somewhere I'm not in danger of getting robbed and stabbed every waking minute, too. That would be nice.

I'll be traveling from Norway, btw.

If you're into aviation, definitely Sint Maarten because of its airport where planes land very close to the beach.

    Ah, that's right, Sint Maarten and that crazy runway, that's definitely worth a visit.

    A related but not very fun fact; "Sint" means angry, in Norwegian, and double A is how you write the letter ร… (if you don't have access to a keyboard with that letter) and ร… is pronounced like the O in the Scandinavian name 'Morten', and so Sint Maarten sounds very much like "Angry Morten" to a norwegian, and a Dane.

    Yet another reason to visit.
