And, indeed, there are places available that are so inexpensive that you can prolong your stay to your heart’s desire. Here is a list of the top 10 most affordable beach destinations in the world. Forget the tourist traps in the Caribbean and expand your geography by flying off to these places.
10. Portugal – $26
South Europe has some great beach destinations, with Portugal, Spain, Italy and France competing for the same market of beachgoers. Portugal offers the best value, however. The most popular destination is Algarve, with single rooms costing as low as $26 per night. Even meals and wines are cheaper here compared to its neighboring countries.
9. Philippines – $23
With over 7,100 islands to choose from, the Philippines has one of the longest coastlines in the world, as well as some of the most beautiful beaches. And there is something for everyone, as surfing can be done up north in La Union and Aurora and down south in Siargao. For those who want calm waters, Palawan, Mindoro and Boracay are the places to go to. Boracay is the most popular, with rooms costing $23 per night. Upscale meals are available for as low as $10.
8. Panama – $20
Panama has beaches facing the Caribbean Sea and the North Pacific Ocean. Head to Colon Island, a place small enough to move around by foot. While high-end hotels are in the area, there are accommodations available for as cheap as $20 per night. Meals can be had for as low as $2.
7. Egypt – $20
One of the destinations of choice of Europeans weary of the winter blues, Egypt can also be enjoyed during the summer months when prices are lower. The most popular resort is the Sharm el Sheikh, one of the best spots for diving you can find anywhere. As this is a tourist area, high-end accommodations abound in the place. But look hard enough and you can actually book clean double rooms for as low as $20.
6. Poland – $20
Poland is not really a country that is known for sandy beaches. But sandy beaches, it does have along its northern tip facing the sea. Known as the Polish Riviera, the beaches here have long been popular with cash-rich tourists from neighboring Germany. The most popular is Ustka, though Gdansk and Gdynia also have resorts that have its own allure. But for real value, head for Sopot, where dorm rooms are available for as low as $20 even during peak tourist seasons. You may have to spend a bit more for double rooms, but you can take comfort in the fact that beer is only around $2.
5. Venezuela – $15
It may not be on most beach lover’s map. Venezuela may be more known for its oil and its political leadership’s leftist leanings that have stood up and confronted the policies of the United States straight on. But the country also has the longest coastline in the Caribbean Sea and it also has shorelines along the North Atlantic Ocean. Isla Margarita alone has 106 miles of Caribbean beach with 50 resorts to choose from. Hostel rooms in Playa El Agua cost only $15. You can also have meals for as low as $5.
4. Bulgaria – $10
Central Europe may not be on the list of favorite beach destinations, but Bulgaria does offer some alternatives with its resorts along the Black Sea. You can enjoy the sun and the sand in places like Balchik, Albena, Sunny Beach and Varna, but for those on a budget, try the resorts in Nessabar, where two-star hotel rooms are available for just $10. Beer is less than a dollar each, so that alone may be enough to entice even the most seasoned traveler.
3. Greece – $7
While one does not really want to applaud a country’s economic troubles, the financial crisis has made traveling to Greece really cheap and affordable. The country has always been a popular alternative to the glamorous resorts of France and Italy, but its prices have gone further down to amazingly low levels. Halkidiki, Zakynthos and Thassos have accommodations for as low as $7. Meals are not that expensive either ranging from $3 to $10.
2. Vietnam – $6
Rooms in Vietnam are really affordable, especially if you are willing to stay in resorts fronting beaches that are not really immaculate and clean. It only takes one boat ride to see clearer waters. Or, you can just stay in Da Nang, where rooms are available for as low as $6 per night. The place is popular with surfers because it is conveniently located near China Beach, a place that offers good-size waves, clean water and long, sandy beaches. Try out the food offered by street vendors. It will fill you up for less than a dollar per meal.
1. Thailand – $3
It is the most popular beach destination in Southeast Asia, a region full of beautiful beaches. Yet, despite the influx of tourists into the country, Thailand still offers the most fantastic beach bargains. Bungalows can be rented for as low as $3 per night in Koh Chang. There are plenty of other resorts in different islands that you can also try for as low as $5. Even hotel rooms can be had for only $25. Combined with the cheap Thai food, you can actually stretch your money and have an extended stay in this country.

Originally a Viking city, Dublin isn’t short of hardy fellas to carry your sack of potatoes. Rugged, stubbled and mischievous, a cheeky Irish lad could be great fun to share a pint of Guinness. But brawn aside, they’re renowned for their sensitive side too. Just think about crooning Dublin boy band, Boyzone. And they ain’t too hard on the eyes either – yes, Colin Farrell, we’re talking about you.
Korean food, K-pop (Korean pop music) and K-drama (Korean television dramas) have taken the world by storm in recent years, catalyzing an appropriate fascination with the male stars of the genres. South Korean actor, Kwon Sang-woo, is one such hottie whose good looks and chiseled abs have not gone unnoticed. Part of the mom-zzang (slang for great body) movement, a spot of Googling will yield a good few shirtless pictures of this hunky star.
Holiday home to the rich and famous, you’ll see plenty of TV-worthy bodies strolling down the city’s famous Promenade de la Croisette. Countless international celebs take to Cannes for their holidays to soak up the sun’s rays on impressive yachts. And the locals aren’t too bad either. Whatever the reason – be it the glitz and glamour of the celebrity imports, or Cannes’ ample annual sunshine – the locals more than compete with their superstar visitors in the hotness stakes.
Pristine beaches and sparkling waters make up this sprawling Asian archipelago. Picture-perfect islands numbering in the thousands draw in hoards of holidaymakers to the Philippines each year for fun in the sun. And with weather this hot it should come as little surprise that the men of Philippines have some head-turning beach bodies to match. Their reputed romantic side and gloriously tanned skin doesn’t hurt either. Just check out much-loved Filipino actor Dingdong Dantes. But though Quezon City is a few miles from the coast (it’s near Manila), it is the hometown of Dingdong Dantes and the hub for much of the Philippines’ entertainment industry, which gives credence to its nickname “City of the Stars.”
The largest city in Sierra Leone, Freetown is home to hunky Mr. Africa International 2012 winner, Adonis O’Holi. Posed for his competition snaps with oiled up muscles that would make The Rock shake in his army boots, you can certainly see how he nabbed the title. And you know what they say: once you go to Freetown, you never go back. Or something like that.
Located in the north east of the Caribbean, San Juan, Puerto Rico is part of the tropical archipelago that includes Cuba, Hispaniola and Jamaica. The men of Puerto Rico are famed for their tanned skin, dark eyes and passionate bedroom antics. And as San Juan’s’s a historical port town, visitors can find countless sightseeing tours to fill their days. But if you’d prefer a more personal tour, you could always get a local Puerto Rican to show you around.
What’s not to like about Miami? There’s sun, sea, sand and, oh yes, super-hot guys. It’s also a land of fancy hotels, flash cars and a dash of crime – providing ample material for the ever-popular television show, CSI Miami. Whilst vanity may not be the key to happiness, it certainly makes for some very good-looking men. You’ll find these toned and tanned male specimens at all good Miami beaches, tanning salons and mirrors.
Steeped in culture, this historical city gets a lot of architectural tourism, as visitors can feast their eyes upon archaeological ruins, the Grand Bazaar, and, of course, the Hagia Sophia. But don’t forget the human eye candy too – the other Turkish delight. Although Turks are typically hazel eyed with dark hair, those from the north can also have much lighter features. Men from Istanbul generally fall into the former category, and if you need any convincing as to whether that’s a winning formula, just take a look at smoldering Istanbulite model, Mehmet Akif Alakurt.
Home to bullfighters, flamenco and Real Madrid CF, Spain’s capital city has a lot to offer in the way of culture. And smooth, suave and very sexy, the men are nothing to scoff at either. Just take Enrique Iglesias as an example. Having been called the “King of Latin Pop” and the “King of Dance,” he has also won the “Sexiest Singer Alive” award numerous times. And although he’s engaged to Anna Kournikova, Enrique can be our hero any day.
Talk about tall, dark and handsome: Cuban men cover all bases. With golden skin, dark eyes and a rich, exotic accent, these Latin lovers are number one on our list. And what’s more, this beautiful Caribbean island just happens to be one of the world’s top vacation spots too. Famous for its beaches and rum-based cocktails, Havana could be the perfect spot for a steamy holiday romance. Our apologies to the American ladies who will have to give this island a miss, but at least there’s always Puerto Rico.
