What’s your worst holiday experience, destination?

I went to Zante, I think late 90`s on my own, I went in ,I think late October and the weather was perfect, the place was empty. Got a nice hotel quite cheap, it was hardly 5% full, loved the food, had a good time to be honest. Would never go there in july/aug, christ I bet its a lot hotter than here.
We went in early September. I'm sure some of Zante is beautiful but the relentless heat, in a place that I felt I couldn't escape from, was (with hindsight) not the kind of holiday I truly enjoy. I'm a city girl at heart lol, in more ways than one. Like a bit of life and culture around me, where it feels like there's always something "new" around the next corner.
I'm sure some would love it there but for me it just felt like I'd been plonked on a rock with little else to do but drink and fry! ;-)
 
18-30 trip to Kavos with a big group of lads.10 hour delay on the way over, this was 25yrs ago so before any kind of payments applied to delays which were almost expected at that time. Shithole of a resort that stunk like an open sewer and it pissed down for nearly 2 weeks. Was Ok apart from being a dump with shit weather, mosquitos everywhere and overpriced bars playing only fools and horses constantly.
Went to Kavos about ‘89 with girlfriend at the time, arrived about 2 in the morning and it was kicking off all over thought Jesus Christ got 2 weeks of this. Talking to a lad next day said it’s like that every night. Been there a few nights and managed to dodge most of it when we were walking down the strip when a local on a scooter sidled up and started gesturing and making remarks at my girlfriend . I told him to fuck right off and told him in no uncertain terms he was messing with the wrong bloke, with that Spiros got off his scooter and grew to about 6 1/2 foot, well I’m about a foot shorter but thought bollox lets have it . Ended with us both rolling about in a souvenir shop almost wrecking the place with the lady owner smashing fuck out of me with a pair of sandals
 
Lanzarote. A last minute booking, and it was shite. All Irish/Linekers sports bars in the town. (Puerto del Carmen)
We went on a trip to get out of it for a while to Timanfya .... what we would call in the UK a quarry.
And black sand? Just wrong .... I wouldn't return for free.

I go often and it isn’t all Irish bars, you must have been walking round the block for a full week.

Went Kavos about 97-98 with the lads as a last minute thing, after finding out my then girlfriend had been booked on an all inclusive holiday to somewhere like the Maldives by her family, and not told me about it.

Place was a shit hole but had a good holiday, especially after the first night when i banged a female squaddie in the bogs in one of the bars, without needing to say 2 words to her.

Also funny on numerous nights watching some 90 year old dear lobbing bricks, at passers by, off the balcony above the supermarket on main drag where she lived.
