Sandcastle Stakes High On San Antonio Beaches

San Antonio's beaches are the most crowded in Europe, with only enough room for 1.1 towels per person, according to a new survey by Thomson Holidays. The Ibiza resort's beaches are 50% more crowded than Majorca and almost five times busier than beaches in Cyprus, the survey said, prompting unusual advice for claiming more space.

"If you have children, get them to build a sandcastle upon arrival," they suggest. "No one likes to trample on a beautiful sand creation."

Thompsons' advice came just three weeks after unknown assailants destroyed a massive Cream sand sculpture on the beach front outside San Antonio's Bar M, which Cream blamed on jealous rivals. No further sandcastle incidents have happened since then, a Cream spokesperson told Skrufff this week, though they're maintaining a close watch just in case.

"All seems quiet on the sandcastle front," she said. "Let's just hope it's not too quiet."
