Oh I do like to be beside the seaside!

There’s no getting away from it –we’re an island race and most of us Brits like to get away from it all by heading to the seaside whenever we have the chance...

As the nation basks in unexpected sunshine Haven Holidays – Britain’s biggest family holiday park operator - have reported record levels of families trying to book a last minute break at the coast.

And with Half Term and another Bank Holiday just around the corner Haven’s message is quite clear, ‘If you’d like to be beside the seaside – book soon to avoid disappointment!’

With prices from as little as £199 for a family of up to six people it’s hard to resist the chance of a break by the sea!

Haven have 35 family holiday parks around the UK – and almost all of them have direct access to the coast. Call 0871 230 1900 or click on www.haven.com. The special £199 deal is available at a choice of holiday parks in ‘Standard’ two-bedroom self-catering accommodation for a family of up to six people. Or a seven night half term break will cost from just £429. Prices include indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a wide range of family activities and a full programme of daytime and evening entertainment. Facilities vary from park to park and some activities are subject to moderate additional cost – so check the website for details.

Ten reasons why the British seaside is good for you!

• Sea air helps you sleep better (it’s to do with the ozone in the atmosphere which tires you out more quickly!)
• Sea water is good for your skin (sea water has antiseptic properties and has been linked to reducing the infections associated with eczema. It may also help to heal the skin)
• Sunshine is good for your wellbeing (It’s all thanks to the Vitamin D which is made by our bodies through the action of the sun’s UVB rays on our skin)
• Sand is good for your skin (it acts as a natural exfoliant helping to slough off all those unwanted dead cells)
• Swimming makes you fitter (swimming exercises almost all your muscle groups making it one of the best aerobic workouts all round)
• Fish suppers are packed with vitamins and minerals (Fish is a major source of Omega-3)
• Beach games help you to exercise (it’s not just the exercise – the extra resistance of working out on sand maximises the fitness effect)
• Holidays are good for families (it’s a chance to enjoy each other’s company and spend some real quality time together)
• Staying in the UK helps minimise your carbon footprint (ditch air travel in favour of a ‘greener’ holiday close to home)
• British seaside holidays are good for your bank balance (Haven Holidays are offering Bank Holiday breaks from £199 for a family of up to six people)
