Just looking for a general idea of beer and food prices in Playa Flamenca...heading there for the first time on the 11th August for    two weeks, two adults and two boys 12 and 14....getting a bit worried we mightn't have enough money heading out?........Also any tips for keeping my lads occupied...we seen the karting looks good...any other activities that won't rob us

Thanks in advance,

Ger

Average menu of the days are around 9euro

Beer is approx 1.5-2euro in most happy hour bars

Karting up the n332

Roof mini golf on top of the ‘sunrise’ restaurant (reasonable priced food and beer with live music sat afternoons).

Huge playa flamenca Sat market

Lidle supermarket next to the n332

Playa flamenca hub, full of bars restaurants and music

Take a taxi (8euro) to Cabo roig....strip of bars/restaurants

Taxi to torrevieja 11euro

We fly out on 11th also for 26 days (Manchester 3pm)

Playa flamenca, la zenia has fabulous beaches and are lovely areas, not bustling like Benidorm etc but lively enough.

It’s not overly expensive by any means, you’ll have a great time.

It is not cheap anymore if you eat out everyday. Yes you can get menu del do a between 8 to 11 euros each. Between 2-5.

Unless it's happy hour then lager can be 3 euro Guinness 4.50 cider 3.50.

Bottles of local beer are the cheapest and glasses of wine.

Chinese really cheap.

Breakfast from 3.50, English meals pie chips 7.50, fish chips around 6.50.

Italian s pizza about 7-8 euros.

Go karts are 28 euros mimi golf 5 euros hope this helps

Worth checking out the activity/entertainment at Zenia Boulevard as that changes daily but they have a plan up for every day of the month.  Some of the events/entertainment may be of interest and its free.
