Three ideal holiday options for August Bank Holiday weekend

The August Bank Holiday weekend is fast approaching, and for holidaymakers who like to live life on the edge, a last minute break can be an exciting adventure. There is a great selection of top spots to visit this weekend, and Just the Flight has highlighted three possible locations.

Portugal

Portugal is a fantastic country to head to, not only because it is very cheap but also because it offers a thriving culture and sun drenched beaches. Travelling to Faro will offer visitors access to the stunning Algarve, where mountain villages, windswept coastlines and traditional Portuguese culture can be enjoyed.

Las Vegas

For those who do not mind travelling a little further afield, a weekend break to Las Vegas is ideal. Sin City, as it is affectionately known, offers gambling, partying and all night revelling for visitors. It also offers the chance to visit the Hoover Dam and the Grand Canyon, making a trip here both cultural and hedonistic.

Cyprus

Cyprus is a very popular Mediterranean destination for British holidaymakers, and a long weekend trip here makes great sense. Flights to Paphos and Larnaca are very affordable, allowing families, couples and partiers access to Ayia Napa, secluded beachside coves and charming Cypriot villages.
