Garie Beach

Where is a lovely place to go on holiday?

Me and my boyfriend are hoping to go away this June, we have never been on holiday before so we have no idea where to start, I would love some ideas. We are looking into Spain at the moment because it is not far from England (where we live) and i don't want to be on a plane for too long! We would love somewhere hot, beautiful beaches and lots of fun activities (Safari, quad biking, shopping) not too bothered about the night life. We are in our early 20's so we are looking for a great time! I would be grateful for some suggestions!!! Thanks xx

1. A Greek Island. You are spoiled for choice as virtually every one has fabulous beaches and plenty to do. I went to most of the popular ones and only Thassos was disappointing as it was too quiet in all respects. All the others have every activity available, and in June in will be very hot. Air conditioned apartment or hotel is preferable or it can be too hot at night. If you can, go with Thomsons as they are the best for reps on the islands. Their reps see you at the airport, check that you have settled into your apt., arrange as many trips as you wish to fit in, and most importantly are on hand to help you if the need arises. I loved Rhodes, Skiathos, Kefalonia and Kos. Rhodes has a castle town dating back to the 15th century which is full of shops and restaurants. Skiathos has a small harbour overflowing with dozens of tavernas. Greeks are the best hosts I have come across. Enjoy!
2. Hey....check out Santorini.com Awesome place! Lots of Romance, Great Food, Great Music, etc... Hire a couple of quads and tour the island...there is a place called Mega Pegalia get a local map and try find it....it's a family run restaurant built in a cave!! They have their own beach there too with about a dozen sunbeds, so it's nice & quiet and private. You won't be disappointed!! Good Luck & Enjoy ;-)
3. Any Canary island. Tenerife-Gran Canaria-Lanzarote-Fueteventura .Cheap breaks available from all over the place. Teletext holidays or Easyjet holidays. make sure you are not going on the same week as the school holidays (usually first week in June) as the prices are sky high then. The prices drop as soon as the kids are back at school. Oh I forgot Easyjet holidays have a sale on at the mo. Check their website. I just booked a week in Fueteventura on 16th June for 235 per person self catering. The same holiday at the beginning of June was 358!
4. what about lisbon in portugal? or the south of france .... or yeah spain
