Living There
With the spring and summer months approaching swiftly, the grey skies will be urging everyone to think seriously about their holiday plans. A cheap beach holiday is the perfect getaway for solo travellers, couples and families alike, however, finding a great beach destination isn’t as easy as it may seem. Here we countdown the best beaches in Europe so you can find somewhere sunny to spend the summer months.
Cala Agulla, Majorca
With its golden sands and crystal blue sea you may mistake Cala Agulla Beach for a scene from a little further afield, perhaps the Caribbean or some other long haul destination. Nestled to the north east of Majorca, Cala Agulla is the picture perfect hideaway for any cheap beach holiday thanks to its pine tree lined shores. Thanks to its proximity to Llevant Natural Park and many other protected areas, this beach remains unspoilt.
Cala De Boix, Ibiza
Whether you are visiting the infamous party island with friends or family, there are countless beaches and sunset spots to enjoy. Cala De Boix Beach is the ideal place to take in Ibiza’s picture perfect sunset scene, whilst its clear waters make it a great spot to snorkel on your upcoming cheap beach holiday.
Fig-Tree Bay, Cyprus
One of the most popular beaches in Cyprus, Fig-Tree Bay has been mentioned in a wide range of travel guides thanks to its fine sand, crystal blue waters and excellent facilities. The bay is also identified as a ‘green beach’ and has even been awarded a Blue Flag for its water quality.
Elafonisi, Greece
Located on the beautiful island of Crete, Elafonisi Beach takes advantage of everything that the south coast is known for. Its shallow waters make it perfect for younger members of the family, whilst a little further out you’ll find plenty to see when snorkelling.
