Just remember to bring your sunglasses.&nbsp;So, where are the sunniest destinations in Europe in December?&nbsp;We will answer this question below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#efefef\">\u2712\ufe0f <strong>Methodology point<\/strong>: to determine the sunniest destinations in Europe in December, we used the sunshine times compiled on\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.currentresults.com\/Weather\/Europe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-penci-link=\"external\">the Current Results website<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Valletta and Lisbon, sun guaranteed!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to sunshine in December, two cities in Europe win, hands down:&nbsp;<strong>Valletta<\/strong>&nbsp;in Malta and&nbsp;<strong>Lisbon<\/strong>&nbsp;in Portugal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the end of the year, the Maltese capital benefits from 155 hours of sunshine throughout the month, which is a record for a big city in Europe.&nbsp;It is a blessing because the city and the whole island of Malta is full of activities for good weather.&nbsp;You can also read our&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/destinations-europe.com\/en\/visit-mdina-and-rabat-tips-for-a-beautiful-maltese-getaway\/\" target=\"_blank\"

142 beautiful hours of sunshine in December, on average.&nbsp;The Portuguese capital, between its bars, restaurants with generous cuisine, and active cultural life, will therefore be an ideal holiday destination for those who want to travel far from the usual Christmas traditions \u2013 that is, cold and hot chocolate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To this leading duo, <strong>Seville<\/strong> can be added.&nbsp;The capital of Andalusia offers generous sunshine all year round, and in December it is not uncommon for it to be over 20 degrees \u2013 don&#8217;t

sunshine in December at the following destinations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Monaco<\/strong>&nbsp;(139 hours)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Nice<\/strong>&nbsp;in France (139

Greece (127 hours)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Madrid<\/strong>&nbsp;in Spain (124 hours)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Andorra<\/strong>&nbsp;(109 hours)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Podgorica<\/strong>&nbsp;in

December?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, if you&#8217;re looking to bask in the sun in December, not all of Europe is for you.&nbsp;There are destinations where you won&#8217;t see the sun much, even if it doesn&#8217;t necessarily guarantee a successful trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among the least sunny destinations on the continent at this time of year, there is\u00a0<strong>Reykjav\u00edk<\/strong>\u00a0in Iceland,\u00a0<strong>Saint-Petersburg<\/strong>\u00a0in Russia, or\u00a0<strong>Tallinn<\/strong>\u00a0in Estonia (\ud83d\udcdd
