The Costa Del Sol Sees A Record Eight Million Overnight Stays In Early 2024 - Simply Shuttles

Image
  Have you been considering embarking on a trip to the Costa del Sol? The “Coast of the Sun” has long been popular among holidaymakers, but this seems to have become even truer a statement recently, as shown by a new, eye-opening statistic. Of course, this southern Spanish area is iconic for its warm climate and sandy beaches. However, you could also benefit from booking Costa del Sol golf transfers (there are plenty of enticing local golf courses) or exploring the enchanting towns, such as Mijas, Marbella, and Torrox.  Now, according to data from the tourist board Turismo Costa del Sol, the first four months of 2024 saw about eight million overnight stays in the Costa del Sol across a wide range of officially rated accommodation — including hotels, apartments, rural houses, and campsites.  What is the exact number? 8,010,003 As this number does not account for Airbnb-style private holiday lettings in the Costa del Sol, the actual tally of overnight stays in th...

Are Ski Boots Supposed To Be Painful To Wear - Ski Exchange

Image
  Are ski boots supposed to be painful to wear?   To answer this question simply and directly: no, they are not. While wearing ski boots will never feel as comfortable as wearing those well-broken-in trainers you go to the supermarket in each day, they shouldn’t be uncomfortably tight, or for that matter, uncomfortably loose (many people associate painful ski boots with an overly tight fit, but if your feet slip and slide a lot inside your ski boots, this won’t do much for your comfort, either). Certainly, you should not be ending your typical day on the slopes with the feeling that your feet have been “destroyed”, or that you are needing to “manage the pain”. The good news is that even seemingly “minor” adjustments can make a big difference to how ski boots fit, although it probably won’t be easy for an amateur to know what those adjustments should be. It’s one reason why we offer a ski boot fitting guarantee as part of our own renowned boot fitting services at Ski...
