I've been flying holiday flights from East Midlands for the first time this year Sharm el Sheik and Dalaman are popular and reasonably priced with a couple of airlines operating it keeps the prices down. Cape Verde is supposed to be good about an hour south of Tenerife but not as highly developed.

Plus there's a place down the coast that rents proper motorbikes. |

Los Christianos is nice, the H10 Oasis Moreque was nice when I went a few years ago, and it was next to the man-made beaches (althought the sand sticks to EVERYTHING), It's also close enough to the party area without being ontop of it meaning you can go there if you want but only if you want. |

We stayed just up into the foothills across the motorway from Los Christianos - as you say, nice and quiet where we were, but not far (about €5 taxi ride iirc) from the nightlife if you wanted it!
Also, Siam & Loro parks are a great day out, good value if you buy the combined ticket too |

Can I just say...I find it very amusing that the swear filter stops you reading the whole place name of...
S****horpe ![]() Shell, you can get to the East Coast of the states, i.e. Fort Lauderdale above Miami, even peak season for well inside your budget. Why not take a trip to your local travel agent, pick up a few brochures and have a good look at what's available. The right holiday will choose you! ![]() |

hehe, just beware of Fort Lauderdale during spring break - unless millions of students on the lash appeals to you of course!
But agreed, Fort Lauderdale, Miami or Orlando are all worth a visit, I didn't consider them to be low budget in my initial post! |

I didn't even notice that - I automatically assumed it read "Longitude" - good spot

For a tight budget, Egypt is a good bet. Further south you go e.g. Hurgada or even Marsa Alam, is quieter and the coral is in better shape, less nightlife though than Sharm, which is touristville. Turkey seems to be going up in price but you could land a package deal, though again the further you go anticlockwise along the coast from Bodrum (costa del Turkey) towards Antalya (where the Turks all suggested I go on holiday) it gets a lot nicer. Greece might be better VFM though. Also have a look at some far east packages, there are some really good deals around for India, Thailand etc. at the moment.
