World Cup 2022 Beach Bar advance planning for the drinking of cold beer ...

Traditionally we've always gone away somewhere sunny for the last two weeks of either the World Cup or Euros as we like to watch the games in warm countries, on a reasonable timeline after a day on the beach.

Don't fancy visiting Qatar next winter for the finals so trying to look at a map of the world's timelines where we can watch from the last 16 onwards.

Date-wise that would be the first week in Decemember 2022 onwards until the final on the final on Dec 18th.

Matches are being played locally at 6pm and 10pm.

Other than the obvious winter sun places such as the Canaries all suggestions greatfully received.

MATTR5

Anywhere Indian Ocean, Cape Verde, Gambia, Senegal, Australia 
A good bet though without breaking the bank would be Egypt

Westin

Would agree with MATTR5 suggestion on Egypt.  Probably one of the cheaper options yet generally a good standard of accommodation if you pick a 5* category AI hotel. Perhaps look at Sharm El Sheikh area as I am sure some of the bars in the tourist downtown area would show all the games.

I don't fancy Egypt either tbh.
But thanks for the suggestion.
The Indian Ocean sounds like a good idea and a decent timeline as well

Reunion island is part of France and is 1h ahead of Qatar although similar longitude

Yes, but not good for beaches. Nearby Seychelles might prove more attractive.

As the matches are 6pm and 10pm local time we'd be quite happy with anywhere up to 4or5 hours behind - this would still give us plenty of beach time AND we wouldn't be starting on the turps too early.
In fact a teatime kick-off for the late game would still allow time to go out for dinner afterwards.
