Eating out is inexpensive with a full three course meal with wine costing around 500 to 600 pesetas. (about £3 per person). Experimenting with local dishes and wines is one of the pleasures of Spain. Try the local Paella, fish feasts and, for a snack, try a lunchtime tapas. Supermarkets are particularly gogd value for wines, beers and tobacco. more follows > Holidays...580 Tourist Rates..586 HOLIDAYS ABROAD 581/582

As the cheapest, the Costa Brava attracts the younger, some say, rowdy elements to the likes of Lloret de Mar. To many Benidorm is the Costa Blanca but there is much more to this regign than this concrete jungle. The Costa del Sol suffers a similar problem with problem with Torremolinos.
