Depending on the individual, best fits could be Portugal, Sicily, France or Greece.

Seen a good number of French and Belgians with similar look:

Fits well in Greece:

Quite Sicilian looking:

Fits reasonably well as robust Med type of the southwest:

This one has minor SSA influence. He just looks "off".

How?

You put UK as a better fit than most countries but then say they pass better in Germany, Austria and Switzerland than the UK.

The lighter ones look more continental Germanic rather than British or Irish to me.

They don't fit in Britain or Ireland at all. Would look instantly foreign.

Crete but they honestly look much more Spanish than anything. Those who are more Euro looking look Spanish the others are a bit of a mix (Hispaniola/Amerindian types).
