Travel Expert Shares the ‘Number One Beach Getaway’ When You’re on a Budget

Mercedes Zach, the travel expert at ASAP Tickets, told Express.co.uk the “number one beach getaway” in Greece when you’re on a budget.

“As a travel expert of many years, I often give my customers advice on scoring the best holiday deals and finding spectacular yet affordable bucket-list spots,” said Zach. With the likes of Santorini, Corfu and Mykonos erring on the expensive side of holidays, there are more affordable options that have amazing scenery. “The number one beach getaway on this list is Crete,” said Zach, which consists of four “breathtaking regions” from Chania and Heraklion to Rethymno and Lasithi. “The best place to start your island vacation is in the western region of Chania where one of Crete’s two major airports is located,” said Zach. “Chania sits on the Minoan city of Kydonia and is a great destination for a variety of fun outdoor experiences.” Zach added: “It has mesmerising beaches within quick reach of the Old Town, as well as some great hikes and many vineyards nearby that are perfect for a day trip.”
