What’s your ideal getaway?

Here at Coast we have recently launched our new travel insurance scheme and holidays have become a hot topic of discussion. The Coast team have come up with a top 5 types of holiday that they enjoy with family and friends.

Beach Holiday
If you spend your days longing for sun, sea and sand then a beach holiday is ideal for you. There are so many choices for beach holidays all over the world and these can include a range of accommodation options to suit your preferences and of course your budget. You could opt for an all-inclusive 5 star hotel in Mauritius or a self-catering adventure to Australia to soak up the sun on some of the world’s most beautiful beaches.

Suggestions from the Coast team: Greece, Mexico, Florida, Australia, Thailand, France and the Maldives.

City Break
Whether you enjoy the hustle and bustle of markets or like to relax on a romantic getaway, city breaks can offer something for everyone. You can explore different cultures, visit world famous attractions, admire beautiful architecture and treat your taste buds to new culinary experiences. One of the best parts of a city break is you can fit it in over a long weekend or tag it on to the beginning or end of a longer holiday.

Suggestions from the Coast team: Vienna, Prague, Berlin, Barcelona, Rome, Amsterdam

Winter Sports Holiday
If you are looking for a holiday with plenty to do then why not hit the slopes on a winter sports holiday. There is so much fun to be had on a winter sports holiday, you can ski, snowboard, toboggan, ice-skate and really spend some quality time with the family. Not only is there lots of activities you also get to take in some breath taking scenery. Some ski holiday locations that are considered the most draw dropping are the Matterhorn mountain in Switzerland, the Dolomite mountains in Italy, Mont Blanc in France and the village of Alpbach in Austria.

Suggestions from the Coast team: St Anton am Arlberg, Courchevel, La Plagne, Deer Valley, Portes di Soleil

Safari

You will have the opportunity to see some of the world’s most majestic creatures in their natural and untamed habitat. For animal and wildlife lovers this really is a dream holiday. You can choose from a wide selection of safari tours and packages covering Botswana, Congo, Kenya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mozambique, Nambia, Rwanda, Seychelles, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

Cruise
A cruise can provide you with luxury accommodation and travel, whilst being able to visit numerous destinations all in one holiday. You could sail the Atlantic Ocean and enjoy the warm waters by taking a Canary Islands cruise. If you fancied somewhere further afield maybe a tropical cruise around the Caribbean might be for you or if you were looking for cooler climates how about a cruise to the Antarctic. Wherever you choose to go you can travel in comfort with most cruise ships offering multiple dining options, cabins with room service, bars, sports facilities and many on board activities.
