Book early for August โ the best-located stays go months in advance. Shoulder season (MayโJune and SeptemberโOctober) is when regulars travel: quieter beaches and attractions, softer prices, same scenery.
Outside school holidays โ typically late September to early May. Many stays cost 30โ50% less than in August, and attractions are quieter too.
