Default holiday suggestions

right. me and some friends are giong away for a week or so in august.

but we've no idea where to go.

we want to be able to do stuff during the day like touristy things or water sports etc. but then still go out at nights and have a good time.

we're all students so it needs to be semi cheap.

so. give me/us some suggestions to look into to.

Turkey - Cheap, Hot, Beachy, nae bad nightlife.. depending on where you go. I'd suggest somewhere around Bodrum or Gumbet, it has a quality nightclub.. the biggest outdoor club in the World!! Ace Waterpark, and the booze is cheap.. so are the people tho... so watch yer back if you go.

The pety crime rate is also hideously high.

Maybe not the best for a group of girls planning on drinking - though it is really cheap and there's no shortage of sites to see and things to do.... it's also relatively untouched in regards to becoming tarred by the tourist brush... so if you were sensible and stuck together it'd probably be fine. My boyfriend is there with a pile of his friends just now so i'll pass on reports to how it was.

Hamburg. Get a return flight for about £40, accomodation for about £8 a night. Nightlife in St. Pauli is incredible.

Berlin is also amazing

Are you sure about that crime rate ?

I spent a month in Bulgaria with just one other girl, we spent a lot of time in town and went out at night a few times and we had absolutely to problem at all. Everyone was really friendly and helpful.

Maybe it just depends on what part of Bulgaria you're in
