20 of the most popular European beach resorts, ranked by price
If you fancy a European seaside break this further but don’t have endless cash to splash, look no further.
The cheapest beach resorts in Europe for 2019 have been revealed in Britain’s Post Office Travel Money Holiday Costs Barometer.
The Post Office surveyed 20 of the most popular European coastal locations, which were then ranked in order of affordability.
The prices of nine tourist essentials were taken into consideration: a cup of coffee, a bottle of beer or lager, a bottle or can of Coca-Cola, a glass of wine, a 1.5 liter bottle of still mineral water from a supermarket, SPF15 suncream, insect repellent, a three-course evening meal for two including a bottle of house wine, and a two-course lunch for two people without drinks.

Overall, it’s good news for tourists: competitive pricing in restaurants, bars, and shops has generally led to lower resort prices — in fact, 14 of the resorts are cheaper this year than the same time in 2018.
The cheapest beach resort on the list came in at an impressive $50.61 (£38.86) for everything in the research, and at the other end of the spectrum, buying everything in the most expensive location would set you back $186.17 (£142.94).
The data was collected in collaboration with national and regional tourists boards, and prices were all converted to Great British Pounds using the correct exchange rate at 11:30 A.M. on April 2 2019.
Scroll down to see the 20 European beach locations, ranked from most to least expensive.
