UK Stag Do Ideas On The Beach

It's the first day in July and apparently it's going to be the hottest day of the year so far, with temperatures hitting 33 degrees celsius.

Wimbledon is on, it's the third day and apparently if it get's too hot the ladies tennis players are allowed a 10 minute break between sets, but not the same ruling for the men, sexual equality at it's best their lads!

However all this nonsense doesn't fix the fact that you still have a last minute stag do to arrange and need a beach and the sea to cool off in.

Lucky for you then I have compiled some fantastic UK destinations popular with stag dos.

Lets start with the South and move upwards, Newquay is a popular spot for stag and hen parties and is the perfect destination to start things off.

Whether you are after a full on stag weekend with jet ski-ing, coasteering, surfing and quad biking or a more chilled out affair with a packet of John Smiths and a beach towel, Newquay can sort you out big time. The beaches are fantastic and the nightlife will not let you down.

Going from West to East we then have Torquay, which has a great beach, very lively nightlife and some good stag activities.

Drive for another couple of hours and you will drive into the Dorset stag do mecca of Bournemouth.

With 7 miles of glorious white sandy beaches, Bournemouth usually hotter than most UK destinations plus more stag activities then you can shake a stick at (day and night), no wonder Bournemouth is extremely popular.

Brighton is even further east and also boasts fantastic weather, great nightlife and activities. The only let down is the beach, it just has massive pebbles not a grain of sand in sight, not good for football then!

Going North West from Brighton, you have the amazing coastal university town of Swansea, with sandy beaches within walking distance of the centre, Swansea is perfect for a bit of beach five a side, you also have the Gower peninsular which is just breathtaking.

Swansea is also in the perfect location for adrenalin activities including Coasteering, Canyoinng, White Water Rafting and Abseiling and Climbing.

Moving North you will soon hit the incredible sandy and massive Blackpool beach, what used to be the most famous UK holiday town in the 1950's, welcoming at least 17 million tourists each year has now settled in and become a stag and hen favourite, and still gets a huge 12 million visitors each year.

Blackpool still has the "Kiss Me Quick" reputation despite recent attempts by the town council to move away from the lively night scene by banning the Mankini and drinking in the streets, however for a no nonsense, heavy partying, great night out, Blackpool will always come up trumps.

Moving Northeast you will hit the beautiful sands of Whitby Bay, which is about an hour and a half from Newcastle, so why not twin centre your stag do with a night in Newcastle followed by the Saturday night out in Whitby Bay?

Moving even further North you have the beaches of Edinburgh, yes Edinburgh! The best beach is 3.2 miles from the centre of this amazing city and is called Portobello Beach. In the summer it is hugely popular with day-trippers and has a wide promenade, loads of cafes, bars, ice cream parlours and if you're really lucky a mini funfair!

There are loads of places in the UK I have missed out including Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, Tenby in Wales and Weymouth in Dorset to name but a few, I thought I would name the most popular we get enquiries for.

If there is a seaside town with a great beach that I have missed out, let me know below in the comments box and I will include it.

Good luck and don't drink and swim, you'll get a salty pint.

Stag Do Traditions

Image
In the UK a stag do is a tradition, a time when a man calls for all his best mates and friends to get together and celebrate his single life before he gets married. In France they call it " enterrement de vie de garçon" which basically translates to "burial of the life as a boy or bachelor". Back to the UK, usually the 'stag or groom to be', nominates one, two or even three best men who will then take on the task of organising the stag. They will not only organise the it but also arrange what's going to happen on the stag, The Traditions. People think that traditions are hundreds of years old, but in my mind a tradition is something which has passed on from stag to stag. What are these traditions I hear you ask? I'm just getting to that... The Right To Humiliate The Stag Humiliating the stag is a good one to start with, these humiliation rituals are done on different levels of the embarrassment spectrum. The worst I saw was when

Top 10 Stag Do Rules

Image
Stag do rules whether they're funny or serious are part and parcel of a well planned stag do, and we are about to rummage through the depths of another top 10. There are quite a few unwritten rules, which I have written down? To be honest, it wouldn't be much of a top 10 without some stag do etiquette (unwritten rules). By the way if you are lost and are looking for some brilliant stag do games, go here . Rule Number 1 - What Goes On Tour, Stays On Tour This is one of the mentioned unwritten rules, it either makes the stag do sound: Mysteriously amazing Something has happened and no one wants to talk about it  No one can remember However whatever the reason, it's the most important rule to abide by. Rule Number 2 - Don't Leave Your Man Behind Enemy Lines In other words do not leave a member of the stag party asleep in a club, leaving him to get nudged by the bouncer leaving him to traverse his own way back to the hotel. You can also apply this ru

Top 10 Stag Do Movies Of All Time

Stag Do movies are really on the up, over the years this fantastic life experience (your stag do / bachelor party) has also become a must see movie. Here at the DesignaVenture towers we have raided our DVD collections and VHS tapes and watched as many stag do themed films as possible to rate them in our very own special Top 10 stag do movie compilation. So which stag do movies have received the DesignaVenture Movie Gongs: At 10…. Bachelor Party Vegas  (2006 - IMDb rating 4.7/10) Possibly the start of the modern stag do comedy movie where the stars pack their bags and head to Vegas for a weekend to remember, or forget! This funny film also includes lots of naked ladies and even Paintball guns, how very apt. At 9…. Stag Night (2008 - IMDb rating 4.9/10) This is definitely not light hearted or a comedy in any way, a stag party takes the New York underground and gets off at the wrong haunted station, "STAY ON THE TRAIN!". A thriller which will put you off hav

Top 10 Stag Do Games

Image
Stag Do Games are a must on a stag do, not only will it create a togetherness amoungst the group, it will also be fricking funny. Just a word of warning , we do not condone masses amounts of drinking that these games promote, this article is just a service we provide for people that would like to know about stag do games, which obviously includes a little tipple or two. Chicken Run This game is brilliant and includes dressing the stag up as a chicken. SO, dress the stag up in a chicken outfit then, everyone sticks £10 into a kitty and gives it to the stag. The stag dressed up as a chicken has as long as it takes for everyone to buy a drink and finish it to find a bar and drink the kitty dry - just imagine, a bloke sat in a bar, dressed up as a chicken, drinking alone, hilarious! The group splits up into teams of 2 - 3, the first teams to find the stag/chicken get to drink from the kitty. The game is over once the kitty is dry or all the teams have fo

Liven up your stag night with a theme or game, and there's no better stag do game than pub golf. So here at the DesignaVenture Towers we have been listening to our stag parties and recently we have been asked for the rules to the stag do game Pub Golf . So like the pleasing company we are, here are the rules to this brilliant game that doesn't come with frustration and certainly doesn't ruin a good pub crawl. Pub Golf Rules Rule #1 - Dress Code Everyone MUST dress up like a pro golfer. Socks with a tartan or Argyle pattern if you please, brightly coloured golfing trousers (the more pastel the better), a matching shirt or polo shirt and a sun-visor. Golf shoes are not compulsory but are a great addition. Rule #2 - Pick Your Course Wisely At your chosen stag weekend destination you're going to need a pub crawl route. 9 pubs / bars in fairly close proximity of each other, to add to the theme try and pick sports bars or pubs or a pub/bar with a r
