What’s your worst holiday experience, destination?

Bargain! For that money you cant really grumble if it's basic pal.

Back then, we used to love those Teletext hols, went to Turkey a few times as I mentioned earlier, also did Israel, Corfu, Tenerife, Majorca and a load more other places. Even got a great deal on an all inclusive Nile cruise including all the excursions for absolute peanuts. Happy days

A family holiday in Bridlington in 1963, the place was infested with flies, you couldn't walk along the seafront without them swarming around. The only memorable bit was hearing about the Great Train Robbery on the news!

58 years later and you still live in a place that's infested with flies

Ah Soller, I know this is the worst holiday experience thread but there and Port Soller is possibly my favourite place in the World!

Best way to get there is on the "Orange Grove Express" train from Palma. Been on several island tours. most of which start with that. Lovely place.

I don’t doubt there are worse places mate, in fact a couple of years later the two Scandinavian backpackers were murdered around the Atlas Mountains where we’d done a tour, it didn’t surprise me .

In the UK I remember the “Barry Island resort”, security were basically hired thugs, barbed wire around the entrance (or exit, couldn’t decide) tbh though it was that bad it was funny at times .

You mean Butlitz?

I love Benidorm but in the winter not the peak times of summer. Quite a lot of FOC's (at 62 am I one?) but FOC's there for a good time. There's some really good restaurants that are not cheap and i usually stay around the Old Town, Tapas Alley is brilliant value and the nose bag is great.

I went late September and it wasn't too busy. I stayed at the far end but if i went back the old town is the better end of of the resort.

You're too not far off being a FOC mate; )

No flies on the Lancs Riviera. ;-)

A week in a caravan in Prestatyn.
Pissed down most days, so played a lot of card games.
Only outlet was walking to a shit pub at night and getting hammered.

Camping holiday in Skegness
Fucking grim.
I hate tents and wet grass, damp clothes, public showers and bogs.
Skeg is a fucking dump full of weirdos.
The town is crawling with gronks bricking each other, thugs mugging people on the pedestrian bridge and stray dogs picking through garbage. Activities for kids include asking strangers for ciggies, getting pregnant , and jumping off bridges into the turd-riddled river while trying not to land on the artificial reef made of dumped shopping trolleys and stolen dirt bikes.

Suffered a DVT, PE and a mild heart attack
In Dubai . Spent 6 days in intensive care wasn’t the best way to spend my holiday. Would probably go back though

The only break I have been to that I did not like was Barcelona.
3 days of non enjoyment.
I suppose catching some arsehole trying to pickpocket me 10 mins in didn't help.
