Have you noticed on social media or scrolled through Instagram or TikTok lately? If so, you’ve likely encountered a barrage of intriguing messages like these. Welcome to the world of “destination dupes” – a burgeoning trend where savvy travellers reveal lesser-known paradises to explore.

These hidden gems offer not just a break from the ordinary but also a reprieve from the tourist hordes, often at a fraction of the cost. With searches for these “dupe” spots increasing worldwide in 2023, it’s evident that this trend is here to stay.

There is a palpable shift towards exploration in 2024. While iconic destinations such as the Costas in Spain, the South of France and Devon and Cornwall remain perennial favourites, their popularity has become a double-edged sword, leading to overcrowding and inflated prices.

For those seeking unique experiences away from the oversubscribed beaten path, perhaps embrace “destination dupes” such as Algarve and Silver coast Portugal. Get ready to embark on a journey of discovery and delight, away from the tourist masses and inflated prices!

Two places to rest your head in these amazing locations are Villa Vida Nova Algarve and Villa Vida Nova Silver Coast.
