The Best Beaches Europe Has to Offer

MONTEROSSO - Italy - Just because we're leaving the EU, does not mean we are leaving Europe, especially the beaches. Here's a guide to some of the best ones.

When it comes to summer holidays, most of us will flock to the beach.

Whether that’s a beach at home or abroad, we’re all looking for the best options for our breaks.

Luckily, we’ve decided to look into what the best beaches Europe have to offer are, so all you have to worry about is packing and applying for your EHIC card at ukehic.com before you set off on your beach break.

 

Canal D’Amour, Sidari, Greece

Only 36km from the main town of Corfu, Sidari is known as one of the best tourist resorts corfu-sidari-canal-d-amourin the area – not least because of its stunning beaches. The village is surrounded by stunning landscapes and lush greenery and forests, giving a very distinct contrast. The ‘Channel of Love’ (Canal D’Amour) is an idyllic location, surrounded by beautiful coves and canals formed by its unique rock formations. The waters are just as visually pleasing with their crystalline state, as well as being warm during the summer months for swimming – just avoid this beach when it’s windy!

Santa Giulia Beach, Corsica

With soft white sand and an aquamarine sea, Santa Giulia can rival any Caribbean beach. corsica_santa_giuliaThe shallow, calm waters make for perfect swimming with young kids or a paddle to cool off, and there are small areas of reef dotted about that you can wander out to. Visitors can enjoy the views of mountains and pines that only add to the stunning scenery that this beach has to offer. There is limited shade that gets taken up quickly, so consider bringing a sun shade, or be prepared to hire one out!

Pregonda Beach, Menorca, Spain

On the Island of Menorca, Pregonda Beach is the perfect location to discover.

Monterosso al Mare, Cinque Terre, Italy

Monterosso in Cinque Terre, Italy is another stunning European Beach. Crystalline waters monterossoand plenty of restaurants and hotels in the area make for the perfect holiday location, and the sandy beach only makes it all the more pleasant.

The crowded stands are understandably so simply because Monterosso is the only sand-covered area in the immediate area.

Playa de las Teresitas, Santa Cruz, Tenerife

Originally, this beach was nothing but rocks and black sand but in 1973, 270,000 tonnes of playa de las teresitas tenerifewhite sand was shipped from the Western Sahara all the way to the Playa de Las Teresitas to create an artificial beach. The two piers located tere and the long breakwater about 150 meters out from the beach were constructed to stop the sea from carrying out the white sand. It is now one of the most popular beaches in the Canary Islands, and is one of the very few beaches in Tenerife that do not have black, volcanic sand that most of the Canary Islands suffer from.
