This post was published in January 2025 and based on a visit in August 2024. Information may have changed so do always check with venues direct for the most up to date info when making plans. We paid for everything in this post ourselves but the links are (ad) affiliates.
In 2024, instead of one big family holiday we decided to book 3 x 3 night breaks - one with each of our children to a destination of their choice (within reason). You can read about our trip to Athens with Jack over Easter here and I'll share a blog about Rome with Harry soon.
This blog is going to focus on our trip to San Antonio over August bank holiday weekend with Dee who was 15 at the time. We booked a package deal with Jet2.
Jet2 fly from Newcastle to Ibiza pretty much every day in the summer. If booking your flight and accommodation separately, you can expect to pay around £180-£250 for a return flight including luggage in August. The flight time is just over 3 hours.
AD - I'm marking this post as an AD as I do regularly work with Beamish however I do pay for our Beamish Unlimited Pass using my own money every year and use it regularly.
This post shares the various options for ice skating across the North East this winter. Please always contact venues direct for up-to-date information before making plans and heading out as the info in this post may have changed.
Prices are based on a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) booking a standard session including skate hire and exclude any one-off/temporary discounts.
