For many of us a holiday is just not the same if there isn’t a beach nearby. Whether it is because you are taking the children, or that you like the warmth and feel of the sun-baked sand underfoot, or perhaps it’s the water sports or just being at the waters’ edge relaxing, listening to the waves lapping whilst you enjoy a good book, a beach is an essential part of your holiday.

At Thames travel we have over 25 years of experience in arranging beach holidays for families and couples and have personal knowledge of most of the finest beach destinations in the world.

How about the Caribbean? Antigua has 365 beaches, one for each day of the year. What about Bermuda with it's famous pink sand beaches.
