hehe....good call....that s a place we ld all love to find... unfortunately there s only places I can think of where 1 or 2 of your wishes would be fulfilled cos it s either good beaches = overcrowded and shitty music everywhere (mallorca, greece) and mostly expensive as well, inexpensive = less sun & no beaches = croatia (it s really nice there, but the beaches are made of rocks mostly, which is really good for diving tho).
You might want to check out the turkish coastline or egypt, both well cheap and great beaches supposedly. Unfortunately weird politics in both and might be awkward for 2 weeks as you ll be caged into some sort of resort with fences around...which allways put me off bigtime.
Can t say anything about the tolerance to black folk for any though since I m top-side-crumpet-coloured....sortof...

good luck, if you find such a place, let us know btw ;)
Seriously I ld suggest Mallorca & Ibiza when dance music & sandy beaches are priority, but you get the usual tourist idiots in big numbers in both.... so if you want to avoid those at all cost, croatia & sardines is way more rural n both really nice for diving n such...but as a londoner, dont expect to find ANY good music in those 2...

What about cuba? Not sure how expensive it is to get there but its gotta be well cheap once your over there, got some wicked beaches from what ive heard. Music wise may not be a london ting but theyve got rhythm in them cuban beats.

Keep checking teletext holidays (it's on the net too). You can get some great last minute bargains.

I got two weeks in Ibiza (flight and hotel) for £169 once, during clubbing season. Mind you, spent a lot on drinks, food and other nonsense.

Just got back from Prague with me mate, its fucking amazing.

I'm actually depressed and have been led to drink since returning (although that could be beause i drank my fair share of 60p pints over there).

Theres somthing for everyone out there, i found a shop stocking Dubstep and a pub playing it, clothes, ale, birds (i swear i missed the red light part of prague).

Its faily cheap aswell, i was there a week and could have spent less than 15 a day, but im a greedy fuck and spent loads.

big up.. thanks for the info .. been looking at last minute . com but nothing short of £400 for a week.. but will keep trying .. new passport comes in 2 weeks.. so i either find something sharpish or i see where i can go at the airport for under £99.
