Whether you’re hoping to jet off to a sun-drenched island or see every inch of a historic city, travel retailer On the Beach has thousands of options for you to choose from. We’ve got the latest on bargain city breaks, the cheapest day to fly and the latest On the Beach discount codes and offers to help you get the most out of your budget.
The PriceWatch deal of the week
The “PriceWatch” tool monitors more than 25,000 holiday prices, bringing you some of the lowest prices amongst travel providers. Every week, it spotlights one specific deal and compares its price to a competitor, like Tui or easyJet holidays, to help you save up to £1,000.
Last-minute holidays
On the Beach deals change weekly, so make sure you keep checking back for news on the best discounts, as you never know what you’ll find. If you’re hoping for last-minute sunshine over the holidays, you’re in luck. On the Beach has a wide selection of holidays starting from less than £200 per person, from the Algarve to Dubai. How quickly can you pack that bag?
Book early and save on 2027 holidays
Looking ahead to 2027 means low prices and availability you won’t find on 2026 holidays. In fact, travel writer Amelia Neath has found the cheapest time for UK travellers to book trips. Domestic flights “can be more affordable when booked 170 to 180 days before travel, saving up to 36 per cent compared to leaving it around six to 12 days before,” she wrote. Typically, Saturday is the cheapest day to fly, up to 18 per cent cheaper than a Monday, which is the most expensive day of the week.
On the Beach has 2027 holiday deals to popular destinations like Gran Canaria, Egypt, Florida and the United Arab Emirates, with prices starting from £599 per person. You’ll find sunny favourites such as Benidorm and Majorca, along with Cape Verde and Egypt, and long-haul packages to the Maldives and Caribbean.
Holiday perks
Aside from weekly discount codes and deals, there are always other ways to save. Recently, On the Beach had free lounge access when you book a five-star holiday, airport fast track on four stars, or complimentary mobile data at three-star resorts. They have yet to release which perks will be available on 2026 holidays.
On the Beach top deals
If you can, it always pays to be flexible when planning a holiday. Should you be open to different destinations and dates, the top deals section can help you save on your travels. You can scroll through a range of different discounts available on selected resorts and hotels, such as “30 per cent off September to December stays”, “15 per cent off October stays” and more.
Low deposits
You can secure most holidays from £30 per person, which is one of the lowest booking deposits offered amongst travel providers. Last-minute bookings of less than 45 days before departure do not qualify for a low deposit option.

Price guarantee
Another hack to know is On the Beach’s price guarantee, which means that if the price of your holiday drops at least 60 days before you depart, you can claim back the difference in the form of a voucher. You can check if your holiday is eligible through the On the Beach app where you’ll see exactly how much you can claim and how to get the credit straight to your account.
Cancellation policy
The On the Beach cancellation policy for holiday packages varies depending on the time before departure; however, it’s stricter than other travel companies like Tui and easyJet holidays. Here’s a breakdown of fees:
- 60 days or more before departure: a £50 fee per person, plus supplier charges.
- Less than 60 days before departure: £100 fee per person, plus supplier charges.
Supplier charges can be as much as 100 per cent of the total cost, meaning that cancellation charges vary by booking. Flights are also non-refundable from the point of booking, so it’s worth bearing this in mind before confirming your holiday.
