6 Ways to Save Money on Beach Vacations
Now that you’ve read about all the beautiful beaches to visit, let’s talk about a few travel hacks to help you save more money:
- Stay five minutes from the beach: If you choose a popular destination, staying oceanfront will surely put a dent in your budget. Also, you’ll be at the beach most of the time anyway. You won’t be lounging on the balcony during the day.
- Start saving now: If you already know you’ll be going to the beach this year, you should start saving now. And the greatest way to do that is by making a budget. A budget also shows you what areas to cut back on so you can save.
- Book in advance: Your best bet is to book your ticket sometime between three and a half months to a month before your trip. If you need to fly, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday are the best days to leave. And avoid leaving or returning on Friday or Sunday at all costs!
- Go in the off-season: Traveling during peak seasons is expensive. If you go before or after the crowds, you’ll get fewer crowds, less noise, and more money in your pocket.
- Choose the less popular destinations: If you choose less popular destinations, it will really help your wallet. That means you have more to spend on the things you care about: Making memories with the family or fresh-caught seafood!
- Ask for a deal: You know what they say, “It doesn’t hurt to ask.” So, instead of taking your room rate at face value, why not call the hotel and ask for a better deal? Companies would rather give you a deal off their own websites than pay those extra fees through Vrbo or Airbnb.
