Find out MoreDubrovnik
Croatia’s cultural capital and the diamond of the Adriatic, Dubrovnik combines a glorious ancient citadel with airy sea views and brochure-ready beaches. Its ubiquitous charm draws hordes of visitors during high season, including a glittering army of celebrities, but there are still secret to be discovered within those medieval city walls.
Find Out MoreDalaman
Like Bodrum and the rest of southwestern Turkey, Dalaman was once part of the Ionian sphere and is blessed with a network of wonderful monuments and a fascinating history. But as any visitor to the area knows, its cultural treasures pale in comparison to its natural ones: a hinterland of astonishing rugged beauty and some of the best beaches in Turkey.
Find out MoreFaro
The southernmost portion of mainland Portugal has long been one of Europe’s most popular sun-and-sea destinations – easy to understand when you encounter its mix of golden sands, family resorts and whitewashed towns. The coastline itself is a vision at times, with flower-covered slopes leading down to quiet shorelines, but things get much livelier at the main tourist centres, equipped with myriad restaurants, bars and attractions.
Find out MoreDubai
With its serried ranks of skyscrapers and golden sandy beaches, Dubai has something for everyone. It's not surprising that Dubai boasts one of the most pristine beaches on Earth along its shores - Jumeirah Beach. With many beautiful hotels in this area of the city, it's one of the best places to stay during your trip to the city. Thanks to Dubai's perennially sunny weather, you can enjoy this sandy playground all year round. You can sink into one of the sun loungers, enjoy the view from a seaside restaurant, or take to the water to enjoy a host of activities like jet skiing or sailing.
Find out MoreKos
Its 112km coastline is covered with picturesque coves and sugary stretches of sand lapped by the azure waters of the Aegean Sea. Whatever your mood is – sand or pebbles, sun loungers or just a towel to lie on – Kos offers everything. When in Kos, a boat trip around the island or the beautiful neighbour islands is a must-do experience for every visitor. Inland Kos is a paradise of sun-drenched olive groves and beautiful artwork. Fly to Kos from Glasgow for a summer to remember.
Find out MoreLarnaca
What do you get when you mix Blue Flag beaches, year-round sunshine and neon-lit nightlife? The stunning Larnaca Area! Cyprus blends the laid-back charm of Greece with the exotic flavours of Turkey. Indeed, Cyprus is split into Greek and Turkish enclaves, offering two different perspectives on the Mediterranean island experience. You'll find a wide choice of water sports, brilliant beaches and meze restaurants.
Find out MoreTenerife
Tenerife’s flag is identical to the Scottish Saltire, but that’s largely where the two destinations end their similarities. A holiday to Tenerife from Glasgow Airport transports you to a classic sunseekers spot with an average daily maximum temperature of above 20°C. With over 10 beaches to choose from you will be spoilt for choice. Visit the golden sand beaches or one of the gorgeous black-sand beaches for an authentic taste of the true Tenerife.
