Are there any Beach Destinations within a 6 hr flight from NYC that's not on the hurricane belt and isn't hot and humid in the summer?

Are there any nice beach/island destinations in Europe in the winter? No need for activities other than beach and water stuff.

Canary Islands, Malta, Greece:
Thanks. Doesn't look like they have too many points hotels. The Sheraton in Gran Canaria doesn't seem to have a beach, while the Ritz in Tenerife does look nice. For Malta, the resorts (Westin and Hilton) don't look like they have great pools/beaches.
