Where to relax on the sea abroad inexpensively is the most popular question of tourists, and not only in crisis years. Many countries in Europe, Asia and America can offer you cheap seaside vacations: prices for food, hotels and entertainment, even with the current ruble and dollar exchange rates, remain acceptable there. But a flight to many places will cost a gigantic amount. Therefore, today we offer you 5 countries, where to relax on the sea abroad is inexpensive, even taking into account the price of air tickets.


The Internet is now replete with articles from the category "Where to relax at sea abroad inexpensively." But many authors, describing the cheapness of recreation in these places, miss the most important moment... When choosing the cheapest countries for tourists, the compilers of the ratings cite ridiculous prices for food and hotels, but forget about the cost of the flight. And as a result, the lists of countries where it is cheaper to relax on the sea abroad are headed either by Argentina or by Guatemala. There is no doubt that these are really very inexpensive countries for a seaside holiday, but not for Russians. Because before you chic in Guatemala for $ 10 a day, you first need to get to it.

Therefore, in our article about countries where you can inexpensively relax at sea abroad even with the current ruble exchange rate, we will take into account three main points:

  • the cost of the flight,
  • food expenses,
  • the price of staying at the hotel.

This is a must for all tourists. Everything else (excursions, entertainment, travel expenses, souvenirs, etc.) is very individual, so we will not take these costs into account. Considering how wide our native country is, the prices for air tickets will be quoted from three cities at once - the capital, the Northern capital and the capital of Siberia. So, where to relax on the sea abroad is inexpensive: the cheapest countries for tourism in Europe and Asia.
