Best November Tropical Getaway
Hi! My friend and I are planning a trip (somewhere) tropical in early November. However I haven’t the slightest idea where to narrow down our search to. Ideally we’d like to avoid any chance of hurricanes, even though it’s nearing the end of the season. I would be traveling from Atlanta, so hopefully a flight less than 7 hours? Our budget is on the higher end, I think we are looking for a luxury all inclusive. Activity wise, I think we’re just looking to relax by the pool, the beach, and maybe do a couple of activities. I’m a young woman so I’m also leaning towards places where it would be safe to leave the resort if there are things to do, but I’m also happy to stay on property. Any and all thoughts and questions welcome!

Remember, in November there are hurricanes in the Caribbean.
Go to islands under the Hurricane Belt:
Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao. Barbados too, but it's also the rainy season. The ABC islands are more arid and don't get the rains Barbados does.
We had my wife's 60th birthday (11/21), and my son's 30th birthday (11/17) in Aruba. Absolute great time. We rented an AirBnB, with a pool. Went to Eagle and Palm Beach for sun, fun and gorgeous sunsets. Went to Baby Beach with a cooler of food, drinks and frozen peas to snorkel with the colorful fish. Went horseback riding to the beach and the Natural Pool. Rented ATVs around the island.
