Still Buying Bottled Water on Holiday? Here’s a Better Way.

If you’re like most travelers, you’ve probably found yourself doing this:

✅ You know tap water is safe
❌ But it tastes like a swimming pool
🥴 So… you buy bottled water instead

It’s a habit millions of tourists fall into, not because of safety concerns, but because of taste.

The Problem Isn’t the Water

It’s the Chlorine

In much of Europe (like Spain, France, Italy), tap water is perfectly safe to drink. In fact, it’s held to strict EU quality standards.

But it often contains more chlorine than you’re used to, especially if you come from places like the Netherlands or Germany, where chlorine levels are much lower or even nonexistent.

Chlorine helps kill bacteria and keep the water safe during transport through the pipes. But it also gives water that:

  • Strong “chemical” or “swimming pool” flavor
  • Dry or metallic aftertaste
  • Unpleasant smell, especially in warm weather

And that’s often the real reason travelers grab for bottled water.

But Bottled Water Has Its Own Problems

  • Heavy to carry
  • Expensive over time
  • Creates tons of plastic waste
  • Comes from the same source as tap water in many cases

It’s not just bad for the planet, it’s usually not better than the water already coming from the tap.
