Top Mediterranean Breaks, without the Hustle & Bustle!
It’s fair to say that some of the Mediterranean islands are the life and soul of summer holidays, with thousands of holidaymakers flocking to their shores year after year to top up their tan and get their dose of summer sun. But, what happens when all you want is a taste of the quiet life? Is there a Mediterranean island that would accommodate? Sure there is!
While the popular island hotspots, such as Majorca and Ibiza, have their fair share of quiet, more tranquil resorts, it’s the less popular islands that hold the key to true relaxation. If you want to escape the hustle and bustle and spend a week or two in the sun without the inevitably overcrowded beaches, here are some of the best places to go.
Menorca
By booking your Menorca flights from flythomascook, you can enjoy the low-key atmosphere or this beautiful island in no time. Home to more beaches than her neighbours put together, the main aim of a holiday in Menorca is relaxation. Whether you’re travelling with children or not, there are ample resorts to choose from to suit your requirements, with plenty of attractions, excursions and activities available if you can peel yourself away from the beach for a day or two.
Cyprus
Located in the eastern Med, Cyprus is a bolthole for relaxation and while it certainly has its vibrant resorts, it’s also home to some stunning, peaceful resorts too, such as the western coast and Coral Bay, south of Paphos, which is a quieter alternative to its neighbours.
Malta
From the historical sites and incredible culture to the modern sights and nightlife, Malta has something for everyone. The beauty that the island radiates should be enough for a visit.
Whether you choose one of these islands or you’d prefer to head for the mainland, if you’re after tranquility, there are plenty of options for you.
