The beaches where beer and ice cream are the most and the least expensive

Holidays often rhyme with the beach, but above all with spending. Summer is here and you still don't know where to go during the holidays? It must be said that finding the perfect destination is not as easy as you think. We tend to forget that the beach, sometimes, is also a budget:deckchairs, parasols, ice cream, beers. The note can quickly be salty.

But a trip to the seaside is still one of life's affordable pleasures (as long as you don't visit Norway). The travel site Travelbird has therefore decided to study the price of a day at the beach of the 300 most popular seaside resorts, spread over 90 countries, taking into account the cost of a place (entrance with deckchair and parasol), a bottle of water (500ml), a beer (33cl bottle), a lunch (main course and dessert) and an ice cream. The perfect pack to have a good time!

For the greediest and ice-cream enthusiasts, forget about Norway! You won't find any cone below four euros. The cheapest are in Indonesia, India and Egypt.

– Nusa Dua Bali, Indonesia:0.54 euro

– Dhanushkodi Beach, Pamban, India:0.59 euros
