We have the most spectular beaches with the Gower coast and Pembrokeshire unfortunately not the weather.. I am from Mumbles and have always said the sweep of the bay in PP reminds me of it so it always reminds of home.

Before discovering PP my first love was Nerja 😃

Just spent a very nice few days in mijas pueblo in andalucia. Great views scenery great restaurants, not dissimilar to PP with the type of tourists it attracts.

We're not coming to PP this Summer we're trying Lake Garda instead following many recommendations However we will be back in PP for a week in October - yay
We have also enjoyed Nerja in the past, just for a change - it's a lovely town but we really missed not having a nice promenade to stroll along.

Looks like we made a good choice for next week - Hotel Balcon De Europa @ Nerja!
We are just looking for a weeks early season sun. No intention of being disloyal to PP.
Main holiday will be PP in June.

One of the most underrated parts of the country, without doubt

Our alternative this year was Australia, just a little different to Pollensa. Back to Puerto Pollensa soon though. Even though we have been very fortunate to visit lots of places we still keep coming back.

Mayreau in the West Indies was fabulous, but Puerto Pollensa much closer and beautiful too!

Given all of the other posts, there is hardly any point in mentioning Bognor Regis!!!!

Only joking, it was actually ........ no, I'll only be embarrassed!!

If you are staying near Riva Del Garda try the evening boat trip to Limone, you won't be disappointed.
Best beach visited is Rum Point in the Cayman Islands, great little bar, fantastic turquoise sea, hammocks under palm trees & the most gorgeous sunsets.

Smile Anyone tried France

We have visited ST CYPRIEN a very quiet,clean resort on the coast near to Perpignan which incidentally used to be the capital city of Majorca,also COLLIURE another beautiful place. The area has miles of beautiful beaches,but you do need a car to fully explore,but there is an excellent bus service (1 euro each). Majorca Veteran

Must have been on the same cruise. Not sure about the choice of food on the menu though at the restaurant at the harbour. 3rd down.
Cavtat was very nice as was all along the coast
