Taking a holiday by the beach has long been held as the cure for all ills. The Romans did it, in fact, the Roman Emperor Caligula liked his favorite holiday spot, Ostia, so much that he wanted to move the capital of the Roman Empire from Rome to Ostia in the first century A.D. Almost two thousand years later, the head of another empire, Queen Victoria, would decide that Brighton, England was her favorite holiday spot, and for 6 months of the year, the entire English court would move from the capital of the British Empire, London, to Brighton.
The obsession with beach holidays holds its sway over the minds of many even today. For instance, when Prince William first met his future bride Kate Middleton, when they were both at university in St. Andrews in 2001, he decided to deepen their acquaintanceship at the 5 million pound holiday home of her uncle in Majorca, affectionately known as Chateau de Bang Bang in the family.
So, if you are contemplating a holiday and researching potential spots, then consider a beach holiday. If you are planning to go on a honeymoon, then there can be nothing more romantic than spending the first few days of wedded life by the sea. The turquoise blue sky, the azure ocean, the soft sand gently caressing your feet and your soul mate by your side, what else is needed to make your dream honeymoon come to life! If you are single and looking to mingle, there is nothing quite like a beach holiday to meet dreamy hunks straight out of romantic novels. However, ensure that your hair bounces around you, just like the girl from the pantene ad, after all this is a great way to get noticed. Have you ever seen the movie, “How Stella got her groove back?” Did you know that it was based on a true story? The writer of the book really did meet her future husband on a beach holiday.
