How much does a beach volleyball camp really cost? All price components at a glance

You type "beach volleyball camp" into the search bar and all you see everywhere is "from X euros" – but what's actually behind it? A camp price is made up of several building blocks: travel, accommodation, meals, training and a few optional extras. At Volleytours, a large part of this is already included in the package, and here we show you exactly what. (As of: August 2026)

Key facts at a glance

  • Starting prices at Volleytours currently range from approx. €315 (Ravenna) to approx. €476 (Crete/Plakias) per camp week – depending on location, season and accommodation category.
  • Flights are not included at any of the camps – you book them yourself, e.g. via Google Flights.
  • What's included in the accommodation differs by camp: from full board in a 4-star hotel (Albania) to a free choice between hotel and apartment (Sunsation/Gandía).
  • Group training in the morning is part of the camp programme; individual personal training with your favourite coach can be booked on site as an option.
  • Optional extras like cancellation protection or Sport Flex give you extra peace of mind, but they're not mandatory.

How much does a beach volleyball camp with Volleytours cost?

A clear first reference point: in the Volleytours camp overview, starting prices (as of August 2026) range from around 315 euros for a week in Ravenna to about 476 euros for a week on Crete. In between are Sunsation Beach in Spain and Berlin at around 349 euros, the Rimini Beach Bash at around 409 euros and the camp in Albania at around 450 euros.

The little word "from" is important: these prices apply to the cheapest available option, usually the simplest accommodation category in the base season. If you choose a double room instead of shared accommodation, or a more popular week, the price changes accordingly. That's why it's worth looking at the individual building blocks.

Travel: what do you pay on top of the camp price?

The first and usually biggest external cost is getting there – Volleytours camps generally do not include flights. According to the Volleytours FAQ, that's deliberate: "flight requirements are as different as our guests" – so you find your own flight individually; we recommend google.com/flights, for example.

How far it is from the airport to the camp depends a lot on the location. For Durrës in Albania you fly to Tirana airport (TIA), only around 30 minutes from the camp – shuttle bus, taxi or rental car take you the rest of the way. For the Rimini Beach Bash, Federico Fellini airport is right nearby; alternatively you come via Bologna and are at the beach in about an hour and a half. For Sunsation Beach in Gandía there are lots of direct flights to Alicante or Valencia, and you cover the last stretch by rental car or public transport.

Accommodation: what's included in the price – and what isn't?

This is where the Volleytours camps differ most clearly, and that's exactly what matters for price transparency. There's no single model, but different approaches:

At the Albania beach camp, accommodation is fully included: a 4-star hotel with full board, so breakfast, lunch and dinner are automatically covered.

At Sunsation Beach in Gandía, you choose between different hotels yourself (with a breakfast terrace overlooking the courts, either SPA or standard).

At the Ravenna camp, you stay at the "Mare e Pineta" campsite in Lido di Spina, right next to the courts – in a reserved mobile home, your own tent or with your own camper.

At the Rimini Beach Bash, accommodation isn't automatically bundled: we recommend the partner hotel right next to the courts, or you can find something yourself, from hostels to hotels near the beach.

So ask specifically for each camp which accommodation is included in the price – the differences have a significant impact on the final price.

Meals: full board, self-catering or somewhere in between?

Meals also depend directly on your choice of accommodation. At the Albania camp, full board covers everything: there are buffets with international cuisine in the morning, at lunchtime and in the evening. If you opt for an apartment instead of a hotel at Sunsation Beach, you cater for yourself flexibly – and save money there. At camps with a campsite or a free choice of accommodation, like Ravenna or Rimini, you'll plan meals separately, similar to an independent trip.

Training and coaching: what's part of the camp programme?

The heart of every Volleytours camp is the training. There's usually optional group training in the morning, led by the camp coaches, including balls and equipment. The afternoon is yours: free play, tournaments or simply time on the beach.

If you want more, you can also book personal training with your favourite coach on site. That way you decide day by day how much training you get – from a relaxed beach holiday with a bit of volleyball to an intensive training camp, everything is possible, without paying for services you don't use.

Extras: cancellation protection and Sport Flex as optional add-ons

You can add two optional extras at Volleytours: the camp cancellation protection lets you cancel your camp free of charge up to 30 days before it starts, for any reason. Super Cover goes further and lets you withdraw up to 15 days beforehand. If you also want to be covered against injuries during the camp, you can take out Sport Flex: if you get ill or injured, you get back the value of the unused sports portion. Both add-ons cost extra, but give you real booking freedom in return.

Volleytours vs. do-it-yourself: what you actually save

Imagine putting your beach volleyball holiday together entirely yourself: researching and booking accommodation near the beach, finding out where there are free courts at all, organising your own balls and net, finding and paying a coach separately – and in the end hoping a nice group to play with turns up on site.

At Volleytours, that's already taken care of: reserved courts right on the beach, coaches and equipment included, a fixed camp structure with tournaments and a community that welcomes you from day one. What you handle yourself is deliberately reduced to where individual wishes matter most: your flight and – depending on the camp – the accommodation category. That's exactly the difference to a completely self-organised trip: less research, and a price where you know from the start what's included.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Is a flight included in the camp price?

No. Volleytours deliberately doesn't offer flights, because guests' needs are too different. You find your own flight, for example via google.com/flights.

Why do the camps' starting prices differ so much?

Because location, season and above all the accommodation model differ – from full board in a hotel to a free choice of accommodation. The "from" prices always show the cheapest option.

Are meals always included?

Not automatically. At camps with a full-board hotel (e.g. Albania), yes; with apartment or campsite options (e.g. Sunsation in an apartment, Ravenna), you partly cater for yourself.

Do I have to take part in training every day?

No. Group training in the morning is optional, after which you have free time for tournaments, free play or the beach. You can book additional personal training individually on site.

Is cancellation protection worth it?

That depends on your type. If you want to stay flexible in case something comes up at short notice, camp cancellation protection and Sport Flex are sensible but voluntary add-ons.

Conclusion

The camp price at Volleytours isn't a mystery, but a clear combination of training, courts, community and – depending on the camp – accommodation and meals. What remains variable is mainly your flight and the chosen accommodation category. That way you know from the start what you're getting into and can compare at your leisure which camp suits your budget. Curious?
