Which is better: Turkey or Spain?

MothballsWallet

Mrs MbW and I are planning on going somewhere nice next May for a 2-week summer break with a beach. We're thinking of Spain or Turkey, but which would MSErs recommend as being better?

I was thinking of Costa Dorada in Spain, but I don't know very much about Turkey.

Well I went to Turkey last year , returning this Saturday. Last went to
Spain a number of years ago. which is better, would require lots more info , what you want to do on hols, price, likes and dislikes etc etc


Ps for next year , thinking Greece .

So you supply the info , will give our opinion !!

Agree we need more information.

It's like asking whats better chocolate or crisps without telling us whether you've got a sweet or savoury tooth.

I would say Spain, but I just love Spain so I'm probably biased.

But have you been to Turkey??

I voted Spain. Have been to Turkey once and am off again shortly, but, although have never been to mainland Spain I am totally smitten with the Balerics especially Mallorca!

I live in Spain so am biased - if I thought Turkey would be better would live there

I've been to both!

Both have nice beaches and nice resorts if you pick wisely

Turkey would just win as I love the culture. It's so different from the UK, with things like the mosque sounding out the call to prayer, and smelling the exotic spices for sale in shops.

You should try Bradford, a lot nearer and cheaper

Never been to Turkey but i Prefer the more scenic areas of Majorca to mainland Spain ..Too many English people on mainland
