Cheap Beach Holidays

What do we love about beaches? Sand? Well yes, of course. Sea? To cool off, obviously. Sun? Absolutely - because no one likes a shady beach, am I right? Nothing beats that feeling of leaving your hotel and literally stepping directly onto the sand, or that moment the sea takes your breath away as you dunk your shoulders under. Heck, we even like that little crunch of sand you get when try to eat ANYTHING on the beach. Call us crazy, but a beach just makes everything better. Don’t you think?

If we were on Mastermind, beach holidays would be our specialist subject. So close your eyes and imagine you’re by the seaside. Can you feel the warm weather of Greece? And hear the softly breaking waves in Costa del Sol? Our expertise in everything sun, sea and sand tell us that you definitely need a beach break. Luckily, there’s a sun lounger out there with your name on it, and we’re here to help you find it.

From beachfront hotels to pieces of paradise located a bit further out, we’ve collected our favourite places to stay that are within reach of the beach. Whether you prefer sandy stretches with watersports for the family, restaurants and bars aplenty or quiet coves off the beaten track for you and a loved one, read on to discover all there is to know about beach holidays.

Find your dream holiday in Morocco

Golden sands, the deepest-blue waters, and a sun-kissed tan that'll make your friends jealous. That's beach life in Agadir, Morocco's seaside gem. Imagine lounging on the beach, with the Atlantic Ocean as your backdrop, and evenings spent wandering through bustling markets, eating amaaaazing seafood. But hey, let's not forget Marrakech! Just a hop, skip, and a jump away (kind of) from the coast, it offers a different kind of magic. No, there's no beach, but who needs one when you've got the enchanting Jemaa el-Fnaa square, vibrant gardens, and palaces that look like they've jumped straight out of a fairy tale? Marrakech is a feast for the senses – a place where every corner tells a story and every street is a living tapestry of colours, sounds, and scents. So, why settle for just beach vibes when you can have the best of both worlds? Beach bliss in Agadir, cultural extravaganza in Marrakech

Is there anything more romantic than a walk along the beach? Possibly the only thing that rivals it is if the sun is setting as well. Either way, a walk along the sand with your other half can't really be topped when it comes to romantic vibes. That's why you should treat your partner to a couples holiday and you’ll be feeling the summer love in no time.
