    Not wanting to state the obvious here, but the travel agents will have a lot of guides / brochures to cover this kinda thing
    Or are you planning to organise it all yourself (can be cheaper) ?

    If you're going via the agents route, things change from year to year, so its always worth popping in for a chat.

    And not wanting to state the obvious again, but Beaches....Girls....Clubs? - Ibiza mate, Ive been a few times and love it

    Na, go somewhere a bit more adventurous then Ibiza where its £50 to enter a club, £8 a pint and everyone there is exactly the same as home. Somewhere like Thailand would probably end up cheaper and a much better holiday, live a little!

    Cheers guys all good suggestions...not sure about ibiza though as it is probably too expensive like the fella above said!

    Has anyone ever been to Laganas in Zante???

    I found that while looking on the internet although i will check travel agents of course! but they will not give you a personal opinion on places that people on here will!

    Keep the suggestions coming

    Cheers

    I've been to Laganas, and most of Zakynthos - spent most of my childhood holidays there (family). I've no idea what it's like right now, but it was quite bustling back in the day.

    How about Zandvoort in the Netherlands? Nice beach, good food, not far from Amsterdam or Haarlem, I believe.

    Crete is OK too. It's not ruined by people like you yet, but there are places (Mallia is one) where the girls are largely young and topless, there are clubs and bars, and there is a credible beach and plenty to see and do. The weather is pretty much guaranteed, the booze is cheap and plentiful, the food good and everyone speaks English.

    Cancun is about 1,000 quid a week nowadays. Crete can be done for around 200 and Ibiza the same, cheaper if booking for 4 or so. The problem with Cancun is the flight. Thailand is cheap as dirt too, but getting there leaves a carbon footprint the size of Koh Samui on your credit card.
