Overview

• EasyJet published its Cheap Beach Index on September 3 to highlight value options for trips from mid-September through October.
• Nessebar tops the list, with reporting citing beers for under £2 and typical three-star rooms around £45 per night.
• Budva Riviera in Montenegro places second and Spain’s Costa de Almería ranks third, with further entries spanning Spanish costas, Croatian towns, Greek islands and parts of Italy.
• The ranking assesses areas within reach of airports offering direct UK routes and uses a simple holiday basket including prices for beer, ice cream, a family meal and local accommodation.
• UK country manager Kevin Doyle said thousands of flights across hundreds of routes in September keep beach breaks widely available into early autumn.
