As the summer sets in, many of you would be planning for a holiday during the vacations. Some prefer to escape to the hills while some like to hit the beaches. Talking about beaches and holiday, have you ever considered visiting the beaches of Europe? Ofcourse, they are lesser known compared to other popular beach destinations like Bali, Mauritius etc but in no way lesser in beauty and fun quotient. M.S Travels highly recommends a trip to Europe to explore the beaches out there.

Some of the most splendid beaches are in Europe. Namely Zlatni Rat Beach in Dalmatia- Croatia, Calo des Moro in Mallorca, Spain, Praia da Marinha in Portugal, Ibiza, Marbella, Barcelona etc. offer enchanted and preserved beaches, clean water and a guarantee of bright sun. Whether you seek shade, privacy or family-friendly spots, you will have plenty of creeks to choose from to go for a swim, build a sand castle or take an afternoon map. Places like Barcelona and Ibiza are famous for their night life and party scene. No wonder Ibiza is called the ‘Party capital of the world’.

MS Travels recommends some of the things to be kept in mind when you’re on a beach outing:

1. GUIDE BOOK- First things first. Highly recommend you get a good travel guide book like Lonely Planet. Good for getting you started and some of the tips do come handy ! Look for the most happening places and must do things.

2. TRAVEL INSURANCE – Most important. Not at all advisable to go abroad without travel insurance, you must ensure you are covered in case of any emergency. Look out when choosing insurance, choose a plan that offers emergency flight home, plan that covers all your adventurous activities that you would undertake such as jet skiing, para sailing, scuba diving etc.

3. PACKING – Make sure you pack your bathing suits, your sunglasses, do not forget the sunscreenand discover those heavenly beaches. Also, take your camera along to capture the amazing moments in the most beautiful beaches.

4. BUDGET- Keep an eye on your budget while eating, shopping, travelling or booking hotels, owing to changing forex rates as you move from one place to another, if you plan to visit other places as well from there.
