NIJMEGEN, The Netherlands, August 27 /PRNewswire/ –
In August millions of Europeans head for the coast to enjoy a beach vacation. Often this leads to disappointment. Many popular coastal destinations have a mediocre beach. Often they are also messy, ugly or boring. Zoover - one of the largest holiday review websites in Europe - has created a list of 10 coastal destinations that are best avoided.
1. Playa Paraiso, Tenerife Spain
Playa Paraiso, located on the West Coast of Tenerife, comes out on top according to Zoover. “There is nothing to see and the surroundings look dilapidated. New apartments and hotels are being built. Hopefully they don’t forget to also give the general surroundings a make over as well,” stated Dennis in his review.
2. Qawra, Malta
Qawra is a coastal destination in the North of Malta. According to Patrick it’s a terrible place. “The gutter of Malta! It’s a large concrete jungle, full of sunburnt people who frequent local restaurants t-shirtless.” Maaike agrees: “It really is a concrete jungle! Hotels and apartments, no greenery whatsoever.”
3. San Agustin, Gran Canaria, Spain
San Agustin is located in the South of Gran Canaria. This coastal destination lacks a beautiful beach. “Only black gritty beaches.” The showers located at the beach are of a low quality. “Coming out of the ocean feels like getting out of a mudd pool. The gritty sand is impossible to get out of your towels,” according to Patrick.
4. El Quseir, Egypt
El Quseir is located on the East Coast of Egypt. According to Bieke it’s a terrible place. “It takes more than an hour to get there by shuttle bus and the town is dirty. Pushy salesmen curse at you if you don’t react. There is nowhere decent to go for a drink or to use a restroom. One doesn’t even feel safe!”
