Not so popular holiday destinations...

After reading Martin's article on haggling with the prices of holidays, I was just wondering what destinations are now not so popular...?

Me and a friend are going away in July and would like a beach holiday, somewhere cheap and cheerful...

Any thoughts?

    Well I would say Turkey because of the bird flu scare so you may get a good deal, its a huge country and the outbreak is by Kusadshi and the border of Iraq so if you go around side or surrounds you are 1000s of miles away (I'm practicing what I'm preaching too! as we are going to Turkey in July to Cesme right by Kusadasi! (we booked before the outbreak grrrrr!) Its a lovely country and very cheap once you get there. I'm not planning on playing with any dead chickens and as it hasn't jumped to a virus which can be easily caught by humans I'm not to worried.
    But if ever I stray from the path I follow
    Take me down to the English Channel
    Throw me in where the water is shallow And then drag me on back to shore!
    'Cos love is free and life is cheap As long as I've got me a place to sleep
    Clothes on my back and some food to eat I can't ask for anything more
