Mainland Spain
Spain has long been a haven for beach lovers and we have selected just a few of the exclusive sites for you.
The coastline of Costa Brava links the French and Spanish borders and continues southwards to join Costa Dorado, whilst further south, it joins up with Costa Blanca. Costa del Sol is the furthest southern point of Spain, and links up with the British Crown colony of Gibraltar.
We have selected Marbella and the nearby upmarket resort of Puerto Banus.

Cyprus and Malta
The Southern most Mediterranean islands of Cyprus and Malta are filled with wonderful wonders of nature – white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters, and a temperature to match.
In Cyprus the beaches of Larnaca, Limassol and Paphos are extremely popular, while Ayia Napa will appeal more to the younger set.
In Malta you can holiday in St Julian’s Bay or the more upmarket town of Sliema, both offering excellent facilities for the tourist.

The French Riviera
This is another haven for a superb break from everyday life. Blessed with sub–tropical weather, golden beaches, chic boutiques and fine casinos, this part of the world is known as the playground for the rich and famous. Nice, Cannes and the tiny principality of Monaco are scattered on this fascinating coastline, and you are assured of the very highest quality of service and care.

Italy
As much as you may say or write about this country it is never enough. Steeped in culture, and a history dating back thousands of years, it has a wealth of Art, Architecture, Culture and Cuisine. Much like Greece it also enjoys a Mediterranean climate and a laid back life style, and its people are friendly and outgoing. Apart from its historic cities, and beautiful landscapes, Mountains and Lakes, Italy has much more to offer the tourist with its sun drenched sandy beaches and clear blue seas. The islands of Sardinia and Sicily, the Amalfi coast in Southern Italy, and Venice Lido in the North are amongst the most exclusive Beach holidays you can find in Europe.

Netherlands
Not usually associated with Beach holidays The Hague boasts one of the finest beaches in Europe, with the nearby Kurhaus Hotel and Casino to complement your stay. Scheveningen Beach stretches for miles along the North Sea coast with high class Hotels and the Sea Museum on site. Culinary delights are on hand with the many sea-side Café’s and Restaurants – all of a very high standard.
The Hague is the heart of Holland, with the seat of Government, the Royal residences and The International Court of Justice housed there. Madurodam, (a replica of Holland in miniature form) is also a unique sight. During your stay here you can combine your holiday with a visit to these places and also make a trip to nearby Amsterdam / Delft. This is truly a worthwhile experience.

Portugal and Madeira
Often under-rated as a Beach holiday destination, Portugal is anything but that. Usually overshadowed by its much bigger neighbour Spain, Portugal has its own distinctive identity, character and charm. The unique Island of Madeira, and the Southern coastal region of the Algarve have some of the finest coastlines in Europe, surrounded by breathtaking scenery. The Algarve also has a choice of some very exclusive Golf courses, so you may consider combining the two. You also have the choice of Horse riding lessons or Mountaineering. The cities of Estoril and Cascais on the Lisbon coast, completes this really fascinating choice of holidays.

Greece
Greece is situated at the crossroads of Europe and the Middle East, and is made up of several Islands – the most popular ones being Corfu in the north, and Rhodes and Crete in the south. Here you can relax on the beach or take an Island hopping cruise, visiting several Islands at a time. Thousands of tourists visit Greece each year, some for this reason alone and some just to enjoy the sandy beaches, blue seas, and the laid back life style.
