Not every individual is happy to spend a fortune on a holiday, and for a real bargain beach holiday, you have to do your homework and search for your next trip with an open mind.

Ulcinj, Montenegro

This is a really cheap beachside location and flight to Montenegro from the UK are cheap too. You can relax on a sandy beach, view the historic buildings and visit the wonderful town of Budva, while the 3-5 star complexes are very reasonably priced.

Sunny Beach, Bulgaria

You may have heard of this one as it’s growing in terms of popularity, and Sunny Beach does what it says on the tin. It will be sunny and there’s a beach. What you may not know is there are beautiful mountain ranges in the distance, more than 1,000 hotels to choose from and plenty of water sport activities.
